lehooch Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Bought this in a heartbeat. This is one of my favorite albums from 2011, absolutely perfect for nightdriving. I disagree, I think that this album is extremely dangerous for driving at night, I zone out massively and find myself being caught by surprise by the things that are happening around me. Much safer to listen to at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kindaill Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Received mine today. 46/500. It's nice to finally own this album on vinyl. Looking forward to future releases by Sly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Someone post pictures of this thing. Everyone keeps teasing with closeup photos of the jacket's back and cover. I'm dying to see how the wax turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milky11 Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 Received mine yesterday, #417. I'm almost positive I was among the first 50 orders, but not fussed. Record turned out awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kindaill Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 you should have receieved an e-mail explaining how the orders were fulfilled in random order as opposed to chronologically. So, as opposed to say: first order placed = 1/500, you got x/500. Edit: As posted below, they were sincere/apologetic about that. Nice of them.

SpazzyMcGee Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 41/500. I'll try to post pics today if no one else does. Looks rad. Colors turned out awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milky11 Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 Hey milky11, Just wanted to let you know that we ran into some issues with the distributor on this one... even those of us who were well informed and involved will be receiving a random number... sadly. We strive to ensure that the earlier orders get a respective number to reflect the timing of their purchase. This will consistently happen from here on out. Please, read the message below and know that we have fired this side of our process. It's the first release and we will push forward to make sure that there won't be any further bumps in the road! For all of you, Thanks for the support! Ryan Thanks for the follow up, Ryan. I received that email from Scott. I appreciate the hard work from Sly and a very cool first release.

forbenator Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Thanks for the follow up, Ryan. I received that email from Scott. I appreciate the hard work from Sly and a very cool first release. Cheers to you my friend! When it dwindles down, we're all fans. Scott is a great dude and through his own visions has set forth a path to supporting the music we all care about on the format we love most. As a member of Sly Vinyl, I still pay for the releases as anybody else would. There is a lot of time and money that goes into the operation and it's all for the great people like you, who care!! Sly Vinyl is a community we hope to have grow together, regardless of genre or individual taste. It's not about making money, it's about helping support the labels and musicians we all care so much for. I hope you will accept our apology on this one and know that we will do our absolute best to ensure nothing like this happens ever again. There are many ideas yet to be implemented. I can promise you, we think about this stuff just like the rest of you and want to reward that attention to detail for you all!! Enjoy the journey and know we remember each and every one of you SpazzyMcGee and RyanRR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aych Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Here's a picture. It's from my Instagram, but it's a picture nonetheless. (I got 189/500, as if it really matters.) The colors of the records go so well with the new album cover, and they sound great to boot. Sly did a great job with this.

toomanyrecords Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I'm so, so impressed by this release. The packaging is the best I've ever seen, down to the inner sleeves, and the records look and sound beautiful. my # is 176/500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I'm listening to this right now and just reminded at how happy I am that I own this People are asking crazy prices on discogs. Glad I jumped on the train despite not knowing that much about BSBD. This album is phenomenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_Sofa Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 186 copies have sold already and it's only been up a couple of hours. To be fair, I believe SlyVinyl is able to make this press because they offer the band ~150x copies to sell on tour. So 186 - 150 = 36 copies sold in that couple of hours. Unless that 150 are not a part of that count, but they prob. are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_Sofa Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 http://store.ihiphop.com/products/blue-sky-black-death-slow-burning-lights-2xlp Sold out. I don't know what to tell you. Does anyone have any other info on this 2xlp release of Slow Burning Lights? This post is the only thing i can find on it at all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eight1echo Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I did a blind (deaf?) purchase of this based solely on having hearing the name around and a few recommendations, and have to say I am extremely satisfied. Everything about this release is top notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forbenator Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Glad you guys all liked this release Scott went above and beyond to see this one come to fruition and deserves the utmost credit for a job ridiculously well done!! I've already had inquiries about a 'repress' but I'm not sure if there needs to be another press? I think the original 500 was perfect Much love to you all!!

Robert_Sofa Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I've already had inquiries about a 'repress' but I'm not sure if there needs to be another press? I think the original 500 was perfect https://www.facebook.com/SlyVinyl/posts/703433503077436 Looks like we're getting a repress! It'll be limited to 500 on black vinyl. FYI Sly Vinyl17 hours ago It is confirmed. Blue Sky Black Death Noir Represses are in the works. Pre-Orders will be coming this week & records ready to deliver in 10 weeks or so. Hooray!
