This album rules. Been a while since they’ve switched gears on a vault package. Pleasant surprise in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drrowe Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Not sure how to take this, seeing as it is April Fool's Day. With TMR's attention to detail and the fact that they used an already filled catalogue number in the mock up (TMR275) leads me to believe this may not be legit.

maximuss Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Hahaha. This must be a joke! I love beefheart but this album is one of the most overrated albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknown pleasures Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 There is zero chance this isn’t a prank. The Zappa Family Trust line alone gives it all away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtrCtyWx Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 TMR goes all in for April Fools but I’d consider signing up if it really was that record. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between this line and mentioning a print inclusion that Jack wrote out for an epitaph, it’d be pretty ballsy to have as an April Fools gag.

itsgoodtobefree Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Don't think it's a joke if they're saying you'll receive it if you subscribe. Would be duping a lot of people into paying for a subscription. I'll definitely sign up for this one if it's not a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknown pleasures Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 (edited) I hope I’m as wrong as anybody, would love to pick this up as real, but think about it - with a release like this, why pick April 1 (on Easter Sunday, of all things) to announce when it could have been posted yesterday or tomorrow? I suppose they could be playing a double-twist and make it seem like a joke and then have everyone surprised when it’s real. Now I’m really just overthinking things..! EDIT: Ok, I take it all back. Googled a little and think it’s legit, because look at this: http://www.zappa.com/news/trout-mask-replica-coming-soon-third-man-records Glad I was wrong! This is awesome!!

streetwaves Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Excellent news. Love a polarizing record that I find to be amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temper io Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I've never had a vault membership, and I'm typically not interested in the releases offered to members. I'd like to get this, but would be ok with a standard black/nondeluxe version. What are the odds that this will see a regular release in a stripped down form? I thought some more seasoned vault members may be able to offer some info about how releases from the vault work their way into general release and distribution. If i Have to order this with a vault subscription, I just may, but man, I really don't need a mask and a tote bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vault LPs never see a wide distribution (aside from Dead Weather, and Jack White solo albums that had the colored versions as the vault package) everything else has never been released outside of the vault. I would imagine this one to be the same case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine this one to be the same case. I would think since they mentioned a partnership between TMR and Bizarre that there will probably be a standard black issue of Trout Mask Replica... but I don't know that for sure. I also wouldn't announce it until after April 31st so it doesn't affect Vault memberships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatsNJazz Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 It's still up there so I guess it's real. Definitely gonna sign up for this on payday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
