derby625 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Yes, but with a $0 price and no way to pre-order it, just add it to your wishlist. Yeah, that's how it's been since it was posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crapforgenius Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Yeah, that's how it's been since it was posted. I swore I had pre-ordered it, but apparently I'm remembering wrong. Panic for nothing. Carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crapforgenius Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 So I was unpacking some boxes that have been sitting around for a while today and came across these: No idea why I didn't give 'You'd Prefer An Astronaut' away when I cleared out the rest of my cassettes, but I kind of like that it's the only proper full-length album on cassette that I still have. (There are a few cassingles sitting around still as well, apparently.) I had totally forgotten about the 'Downward is Heavenward' sampler - I played the shit out of that in late '97. Ahh, memories...

This is funny as we got art for this release and in it was "You'd Prefer" art in cassette format haha. Fun stuff. crapforgenius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Did they eventually get you the proper LP format art or is this SRC version going to have a stretched cover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Pretty sure we used the cassette art =) gotta make it look vintage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danny Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 www.luckylacquers.com is where the lacquers were cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Dave is the masters name and he cuts with the best setup in the world. I am going to listen to the refference lacquer again today as i can not stop thinking about how amazing it sounds at full blast on my system. Quicksand "Slip" we just released was one of the best sounding albums i have ever heard on vinyl but this one is as good or better. HUM is the perfect sound for vinyl. I can't wait for this release.

kk-downing Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Anyone hear about one of the dudes from the band having like 100 warped copies of the original press? He said he was going to try and un-warp them and sell them on his site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danny Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 So this master was done made in the digital realm? They take the masters and make a digital copy for vinyl, Then we send it to the lacquer maker. That is why this album is going to sound incredible. Listened to the ref lacquers yesterday again and this is the best sounding album we have done yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I'm not feeling that method but I'll still pick this up. Anyone hear about one of the dudes from the band having like 100 warped copies of the original press? He said he was going to try and un-warp them and sell them on his site. That would be sexy if could score one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
