nyhi Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Guys I need help. I want the FOALS holy fire box set but I don't wanna pay $90 total to get it here in the states. Y'all are good at the internet, can you find me a US distributor? Sorta like what happened with the Atoms for Peace, there's gotta be a way to get it in the US without paying crazy shipping fees. I tweeted at the band a couple times about it but no response. I asked Stereo Boutique and Trangressive Records but no response either. I love this band and want to own this but I'm looking to pay closer to $60 not $90. Here's the link to the store where you can see all the preorder options for their new album: http://www.thestereoboutique.com/en/s/foals?intcmp=121205/foals/wbr/ctt/s_hp/txt/bdy/uk/store Any help much appreciated.

LPancakes Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 how much are they asking for shipping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkeyelids Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I found it is significantly cheaper to buy two, so perhaps find a friend to split the shipping with. To Australia it was $106 for one and $86 for two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyhi Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 how much are they asking for shipping? $35 to the US. Making it $91 total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaba1337 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Any word on the US release of this yet? I see a pre order on amazon.co.uk for a standard vinyl edition, nothing on the US site yet for vinyl... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbrh2001 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Cool, didnt know they had a new album coming out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danaisalright Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Sub Pop picked up Total Life Forever... I haven't seen anything about Holy Fire yet. I'm in the same position of wanting to pick this album up, but wanting to do it for less than 35 bucks shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiscodeman Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I found it is significantly cheaper to buy two, so perhaps find a friend to split the shipping with. To Australia it was $106 for one and $86 for two Calculated it to send two to Wisconsin, and it came out to be $76 each. It's almost justifiable, but I'd like to hear more than the two songs that have been released so far before I try to convince a friend to order with me.

mjglor Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 dude! i forgot about this band. i really didn't like their first album, but LOVED their second one. A friend brought over their second album a few weeks ago and that's all I've heard. I enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angiulo Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I have been looking daily on where I can preorder this on vinly here in the states. I have not had any luck. Has anyone found anything? I don't really want to pay an arm and a leg for shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week, I spoke with Yannis at Holy Fire listening party and he said just wait. They're actually on Warner Brothers now so keep your eyes out. They're touring US in April/May. Once those dates gets announced, I'm sure there will be pre-order for us. I think what's holding them back is Coachella line-up announcement (yes they're confirmed to play;) ps NY show will be in May so west coast dates in April!

Why would they be holding out on the vinyl? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Holy+Fire+-+CD/7533077.p?id=2647980&skuId=7533077&st=foals&lp=3&cp=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand they want the box set, but why would only the CD be available to preorder and not either the vinyl or box set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paralyticstalks Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Any news on this yet? I too have just scoured the internet. Honestly, I'd love the boxset, but the limited edition LP looks so good that if it came by itself, i'd be willing to just go for that. Guaranteed to be cheaper.

raynerho Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 i could share with someone if buying 2 is a cheaper option! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just found this doing another search.. http://www.deepdiscount.com/lp/FOALS-HOLY-FIRE-IMPORT-825646522248?utm_source=GoogleShopping&utm_medium=CSE&utm_campaign=productSearch You can buy the standard LP for $29.95 with free shipping. This looks to be the best option as of right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angiulo Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I just saw this this morning... http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Holy+Fire+-+VINYL/20996669.p;jsessionid=F188A12BCDD7FEEB54B4227C46E8745C.bbolsp-app06-23?id=2653460&skuId=20996669&st=foals&lp=7&cp=1 Looks like the vinyl will be released a week after the CD and digital copies are made available here in the states.

jaba1337 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/holy-fire/25684771?ean=825646522248 I think both the best buy and the b&n links are for the import standard version. I hope the regular US release is a bit cheaper than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaba1337 Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Amazon for the import http://www.amazon.com/Holy-Fire-Foals/dp/B00A8OQBD8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
