serum7 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Searched around for this and didn't see anything about it, I just found out about it today. Matthew Friedberger (Fiery Furnaces) has an 8 lp subscription up at Thrill Jockey for $70 (US), the first one is already out. Here's the details: You will receive one limited edition vinyl LP album of original and exclusive music from Matthew Friedberger every two months of 2011. The first album entitled Napoleonette, will feature the piano as well as Matt singing. This album ships to you in January 2011. The second album will feature the guitar. Albums will ship every two months (Jan, March, May, July, Sept, Nov). There are six albums in fully artworked jackets. The last album will ship to you with 2 exclusive full-length bonus albums featuring Matt and special guests on each. Subscribers will also get an old-style “Tip On” LP box with a hand mounted photo in their last shipment. The edition is strictly limited to 700 and will not be available digitally, or on compact disc in it’s complete form. A very limited number of albums will be available for sale as individual albums online and in stores. The box and the two bonus albums will NOT be available in stores, but ONLY to subscribers. http://thrilljockey.com/catalog/?id=105231 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bentclouds Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I ordered this. It reminds me of the Lars Von Trier movie THE FIVE OBSTRUCTIONS, with Matt limiting himself to one instrument per album to help him curb his ADD ways. I think the first LP is pretty strong and I look forward to getting the rest of them in the mail over the year. It's always nice to find a vinyl in the mail that you weren't expecting to receive.
