Recommended Posts

I am very proud to announce San Marcos, TX four-piece THIS WILL DESTROY YOU are releasing their brilliant third full-length Tunnel Blanket with Hobbledehoy in Australia / New Zealand on CD (in stores August 1 2011) and 2xLP (available late September 2011).

*One pre-order will win a TWDY test pressing! (through hobbledehoyrecords.com)

CD format packaged in an uncoated card digipak. The deluxe vinyl will be a beautiful 2xLP gatefold, also printed on uncoated card, coloured vinyl (clear with black haze) and be accompanied by an MP3 coupon. 1st press limited to 269 copies, each individually hand-numbered.

ORDERS OUTSIDE AUSTRALIA (interpunk)

Through one of our distributors, INTERPUNK will have a very limited amount of the AUS/NZ version (gatefold - clear w/ black haze) available for pre-order. They ship from the USA so shipping costs are much more affordable for those of you in the Northern Hemisphere!

This is not an album to pick through in search of bold hooks and instant melodies. Whereas Young Mountain and S/T could be played in bookstores, coffee shops, and surfing videos, Tunnel Blanket commands and provides entire immersion between the recording and the listener. This is not background music and you’re not going to play it at family gatherings (save for perhaps a particularly dark funeral). But there is still beauty in the record. In fact, this could easily be described as the most beautiful album the band has ever made.

how can one tell the difference between this & the eu press ?

The EU pressing is more splattery than the mock-up posted above. Also, maybe different center labels?

Hey guys!

AUS/NZ edition has...

- different center labels

- hand numbered 1st pressing

The mock up has a little too much splatter to it. Actual records should be more of a clear with black haze / marble effect.

After a very drawn out, nasty, expensive customs battle they are finally here… and look absolutely stunning!

While currently sold out at Interpunk, our distributor has noted a few copies are still on their way. Sign up for notification once they're back in stock if your keen to have it shipped from the US:

Otherwise from Hobbledehoy (Australia):

The US government has had a $9.00 "security" charge on imports for about a year, payable by the sender. So shipping is a bit rough.
