anomynous Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 https://www.facebook.com/CynicOnline/posts/10151590558464936 Hey folks! Limited edition "Focus" vinyl available soon. A web store will be up within a couple weeks. Please don't buy from eBay sellers who purchased on the recent Death tour and are now reselling for ridiculous prices. Buy from us, you will save money and support the band directly. Thanks. Apparently they've been sold on the Death to All tour that was last month. SO FUCKING HAPPY ABOUT THIS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anomynous Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 so down. is Traced In Air easy to get too? I loved the hell out of that album in High School It is, but one of the songs has a few seconds cut off at the beginning. Adam's Murmur I think.

markok Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Nice. They are misinformed on the ebay thing though - I havent seen any copies of these being sold. Original copies surface every three months or so, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lateralundertow Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 awesome, cant wait to snag this. My girlfriend found a copy of "Traced in Air" a week ago at Amoeba in Hollywood. Great girl that she is, she dutifully brought it home. Just a question, is the back to black pressing of Traced in Air (2) inital pressings labeled as 1st press and 2nd press on discogs.. or (1) pressing of both the grey and clear done at one time? Anyone? Absolutely love Masvidals art direction so hopefully Focus will have some extra goodies. http://instagram.com/p/YvPy07o2iO/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwitchingTongues Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I picked up a copy of this at one of the Death shows. It's pretty nice. Comes with a download card. I'll try to take a picture and post it this evening. lateralundertow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piecemeal Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 His eBay comment was in light of my question about this auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cynic-Focus-Black-Vinyl-500-Death-Atheist-Pestilence-Nocturnus-Meshuggah-/251271697486?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item3a80f5d44e I asked Paul what the deal was b/c the seller said he bought it "a few years ago" at Cynic's merch table, and that it was a repress. This was Paul's response: He's lying! We just reprinted vinyl for the recent Death tour this past month, an no other vinyl has been sold since. Flag him if possible and let people know. Will put a notice on our Facebook page as well. Update: The auction with the note about buying a few years ago ended for $140, the Seller just put up another one for Buy It Now $80. What a douche.

IG88 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 the problem is, I didn't bother buying any of their newer releases because I wouldn't pay the crazy price of the original focus. now if I get focus, I'm going to have to get all the others. damn, it's all or nothing. and it'll be too much dough in the end I think. lateralundertow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwitchingTongues Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Single pocket sleeve w/ a printed insert. Nothing special but it's nice to finally have this gem of an album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, ok, the seller used "vinyl" in the title, not "LP", thats why it went under my radar. It seems that he is flipping a lot of stuff (Ghost, Drive OST, Deftones 180g).

markok Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 original roadrunner issue has inner sleeve with lyric/credits only. is it self-released by the band? Im hoping for Season of Mist. lateralundertow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwitchingTongues Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 It's not Season of Mist. It says RoadRunner on the back but has the date of when the album came out. It's unfortunate that it doesn't say 2013 as well. People will likely get confused thinking this is an original press if they don't know what to look for as far as differences (center label, insert, etc). I would presume this is self released by the band. I should also note, at the show they had copies for $20 that were limited to 500 and they also had copies that were limited to 100 and signed by Paul and Sean for $30. I opted for the $20 option since I didn't feel like running out of the venue to an ATM to pull out more $. I'm starting to kick myself on that choice but hopefully they have both options when they put them up on the site for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lateralundertow Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 A signed copy would be first choice for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Nice, this bodes well. It would probably make my year if Sean Malone released Gordian Knot's s/t on vinyl, but I won't hold my breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 clear version was released a few months later than gray If I remember correctly, it was definitely a lot later - when the initial grey press was long sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anomynous Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 I hope that they eventually do a proper press of Traced in Air that fixes Adam's Murmur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
