kforkevin777 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I dunno why they'd say "Making jackets for all the people who got tests!" and show pics and then not give them to them. But I dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I dunno why they'd say "Making jackets for all the people who got tests!" and show pics and then not give them to them. But I dunno. Yeah that's what I was thinking. I may send them a tweet or email to see what they say about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I got my regular LP in yesterday's mail—the labels say it's 180 gram, but it doesn't feel like it... The fiancee is waiting for her deluxe edition package to show up still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattisr1984 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 listened to the stream last night. album is kind of sleepy to me... i dont know... will need to give it another listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I contacted MBD and they said there weren't plans for a special cover since it was the cut out cover. Pretty lame but they also said I can mail it back to them and they'll do something to it. So that's cool. Just found it weird that they weren't gonna do anything simply because of the cut outs. Paid a lotta money for this sucker so I want a fancy cover!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kforkevin777 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 What was up with the rise cover, then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadreckoning Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 was hoping this would have arrived in the mail yesterday. will have to wait till monday. Gave the stream a quick listen. yes a bit sleepy, but i dig it so far - more so than good morning, magpie. Heard some of the songs live they sounded really good.

BuzzersonKillwell Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 Got mine yesterday, whiskey crew patch as well. Didn't open the lamp though. Record reminds me of buttered popcorn jelly bellys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kforkevin777 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I had a MBD/pool/whiskey party last night to listen to this. Don't know what everyone who says its not good is talking about, I love this album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Dammit, I'm totally jealous of listening pool parties! Mine hasn't arrived yet...when's a reasonable time to not be patient anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Man this album is a real grower. Such a mature sounding album all around. I'm really diggin Lost River, Hard World, Ditch Lilly, and Ghost Fields the most right now. But I want to hear Ramblin' live the most.

kforkevin777 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 It's a super good album. It isn't as "punch you in the face" as Bocca or Red of Tooth, but its not as... weird as Magpie. I loved Bocca and Red of Tooth, though. I think this is a huge step up from Magpie. I'm really excited to see them right before my birthday.

geezfools Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Got mine yesterday, jacket was pretty fucked up. Amazing package though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kforkevin777 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 My jacket had a little tear on the side where the name is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Morning Magpie Like the Exorcist... Red of Tooth & Claw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickemmons Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I still haven't gotten my copy, mail just came today. Kind of disappointed, hope it at least gets here by tomorrow so I can spin it this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imaxcowboyx Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I still haven't gotten my copy, mail just came today. Kind of disappointed, hope it at least gets here by tomorrow so I can spin it this weekend. Should be close man. I live in Chapel Hill now, and mine came Monday :D . It's a slow-burner of an album for sure, but I think I like it. My biggest complaint is actually the elaborate packaging; It came w/ seam splits, the inner sleeve might as well be made of parchment paper, and just seems all-around fragile. I actually shelved the sleeve/zoetrope/lantern (all badass btw!) separately, and put this in a plain white sleeve&jacket, so I know I can take it out and listen to it w/o completely destroying everything in a month.

BuzzersonKillwell Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 Yep. Mine got a little beat up in the mail as well. It's cool, but pretty fragile. I'm not sure where I'd place this album yet but if I had to go off the top of my head its: Red > Bocca > Who Will Survive > Magpie > Bitter Drink > Exorcist, but I think it might top Magpie in the long run.

The Doctor Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 For anybody who hasn't received it like me: DON'T FREAK OUT IF YOUR ORDER HASN'T SHOWN UP Update #12 · Sep. 27, 2012 FOLKS- All your orders have been dropped off at the post office. In fact, they were all dropped off early, but since we live in a small town there are only so many people that work at the post office and can attend to the 5000+ packages that we gave to them.Therefore, there is a short delay on some of the orders. They have been working as fast as they can to get to all the packages, and I hope that by the end of today, all of them should be on their way! We did not do tracking numbers for these as filling out forms for 5000+ packages would have been a nightmare and would not have been worth it. so DO NOT DESPAIR. Your order will arrive by next week at the latest.Sorry for the delay, but the good people at the US Postal Service are busting their butts on this one. I felt so bad i dropped off some cds and autographed posters for them. Anyway- hope you enjoy the album if you have already received it. If not, it shall arrive soon!
