ksuwdboots Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 So outside of/besides the 7", is there any difference between the deluxe LP and the regular LP? e.g. 180-gram, different color, more tracks, etc? I didn't see this stated anywhere when the PO was announced/went live, but according to Amazon and Insound the deluxe LP is on 180-gram clear vinyl.

I actually only just found this out myself. The guy who handles our ordering/distribution neglected to tell me this :\ Also, I had sipmats done up for this year! I'll have them on tour and they'll be up in the webstore soon. They're badass looking: http://instagram.com/p/VpAm_6C5qa/ ksuwdboots 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobfrombob Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I heard Josh introduce sharkticon from the stage in Wakefield Quebec as a "foxy man who's not afraid to cry". Great show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So nice meeting you, man! What a surprise! Josh also said I was foxy in a "woodland creature sort of way". Last night he told the crowd I wasn't afraid to show them anything. Interpret that as you will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what vinyl is with you/available at the merch table? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what vinyl is with you/available at the merch table? I'll definitely have a tour poster. Design is being finalized now. I SHOULD be carrying vinyl copies of Golden Age, Hello Starling, Animal Years, So Runs the World Away, Bringing in the Darlings, and The Beast in Its Tracks. I know stock is low on a few things. Trying to get more titles pressed (on both CD and LP) to restock our webstore and record stores. There will also be some other fun merch I'm working on. See you there!

gman61092 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I got my deluxe LP preorder in today, along with the "Joy to You Baby" single. Great stuff. Super cool to unpack an LP, two 7"s, and a CD. Plus, the clear vinyl looks amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawhizz Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Did I hear right that some of the deluxes will be in stores? I told my local store to hold one for me, but they weren't sure if they were getting them or not. Just want to know that there will be some out there still after the preorderers got theirs.

sharkticon Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 Yep. Indie record stores should be receiving copies of the Deluxe LP. Or you can order it from Newbury Comics. That's where I got mine. The entire press of 1000 deluxe LPS are out in the world somewhere. We only sold about 200 of them in our webstore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
