apirk Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Didn't see this posted yet but this is up on aural exploits. Limited to 500 supposedly. kind of disappointed I missed the clear on his site, but I have yet to get anything limited from there so this will do.

apirk Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 I know I ordered one and it shipped so we'll see AE is linked from his his though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I always miss out on the limited things posted directly on his site as well. Is there any sort of mailing list that announces this stuff or do people just check the site every day to see if he's posted something new? I'm always shocked when i find out a couple days late and it's already gone. I've ordered a lot of stuff from AE and the only issue i ever had was with a PJ Harvey preorder that was never released. That took me about 10+ emails and phone calls to have him just give me my $20 back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deathbydrums Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Managed to pick up the clear, letterpress cover edition from Caldo Verde. There is no mailing list that I know of... just got lucky. Anyone know how many of the clear were pressed? Also, don't quote me on this but I heard a rumour that a black vinyl edition will be available when the red/green edition of 500 sells out. BUT I have doubts about this and think it may be one person's misinterpretation of info. Kozelek likes his vinyl limited and they're usually pressed at 1000 per release (for compilations or live albums) or 1000 of two colours (e.g., Admiral Fell Promises). I've only had positive experiences with Aural Exploits. Maple Music (sells City and Colour and other Canadian bands) on the other hand has been dragging their feet on a refund for a month now! Kozelek is a legend... I don't understand why he isn't even more popular and sell more records. That's just my opinion, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itmustbereal Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I had dinner with Mark last September - he is indeed a legend and his preformace was amazing. I usually check his site for this sort of thing, but I'm always late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolage Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I have a clear copy on the way from Caldo Verde. There were 500 pressed. There were also 500 of the red/green. They were put up on Aural Exploits recently. Black vinyl is also available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjaicomo Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I have gotten boned on the last two releases via SKM.com. It's really frustrating. For a while I had almost everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I find it hard to believe that he really sold 500 clear copies at $40 each in a matter of days. Especially with little to no promotion. I read on another forum that there were 400 pressed and only 160 sold on his website. 160 is such a random number that I almost believe it. But then where would the rest be sold?

Guest deathbydrums Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 The clear version's sleeve should provide pressing info: "This limited edition is hand-numbered with an exclusive jacket, beautifully letter pressed by Licher Art & Design out of Bishop, CA." - Caldo Verde website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 They are numbered /200. But I saw the sticker on the front said it was a tour edition so he may have some at his upcoming shows. Too bad he never comes around Detroit anymore so i won't be getting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
000000 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 i really wish he'd repress some older stuff. i was late to the game and missed out on Ghosts and April =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdb Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Haha, I've never seen instructions on an order page about how to see the color of the vinyl (https://www.auralexploits.com/product09_9106.htm). It makes me curious though, what's the color if you don't hold it up to the light? I got my shipping confirmation, so I guess I'll find out soon.

That actually sounds really cool; much better than standard red and green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deathbydrums Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Caldo's site said, "Regular Edition available soon..." when the clear was sold out. Then the red/green one showed up. This couldn't be a total edition of only 700, could it? -200 clear letterpressed -500 red/green I've heard rumors of a solid black on message boards, but I've not seen any concrete evidence.

Guest deathbydrums Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Both of my LP's are on red vinyl. Solid red and not translucent at all? If so where did you order from? ...or looks red (or black) until you hold it in the light and then you may see red/green? Can't believe the confusion about the colour of this album.

itmustbereal Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Both of mine are on what appears to be black vinyl until you hold it to the light, then they both appear red. I thought A/B was supposed to be red and C/D was to be green? Not that it matters, I'm happy with the album just noticed the colors yesterday.
