morfiend Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 AVAILABLE: January 14th, 2013 As one of America’s great modern day vocalists and songwriters, Mark Lanegan has much in common with the timeless work of such legends as Fred Neil, Tim Hardin and Karen Dalton. The former frontman of Screaming Trees, collaborator with Kurt Cobain and Queens Of The Stone Age, half of a modern day Nancy & Lee with Isobel Campbell and, most commonly, solo artist, Lanegan is a man whose career has been defined by an unwillingness to sit still. Light In The Attic are set to shine a spotlight on this great American performer and songwriter with the release of Has God Seen My Shadow? An Anthology 1989-2011. Collecting Lanegan’s solo material for Sub Pop, Beggars and more plus 12 unreleased tracks, this is the archive treatment Mark has long deserved. It is released in two sumptuous formats: a Double-CD edition with a gatefold, tip-on jacket and a 44-page booklet comprising hand-written lyrics and rare archive photos by Charles Peterson and Steve Gullick, and a Triple-LP box set, each LP in single pocket jackets within a heavy, tip-on slip case, with a 20-page book featuring the same attention to detail and extras as the CD release. The 32 tracks shine a light on Mark’s rare talent, and span the singer’s entire career, from 1990’s debut album The Winding Sheet to a treasure trove of recent unreleased gems and feature such guests as PJ Harvey, Josh Homme and J Mascis. His is a sound of grizzled vocals and dark melody, its lyrics chiseled out of late night thoughts and dark humor. Anthology co-produced by Mark Lanegan Double CD housed in a handsome gatefold “tip-on” jacket, including 44-pg book comprising hand-written lyrics & rare archive photos Vinyl box set includes three “tip-on” jackets, housed in a custom “tip-on” slip case, with a 20-pg book comprising hand-written lyrics & rare archive photos Includes 12 unreleased tracks ON-LINE ONLY (limit one per customer): First 150 pre-orders get limited pressing on TRANSLUCENT YELLOW wax! Don’t sleep! LP SUBSCRIBERS ONLY: Limited pressing on TRANSLUCENT RED wax!

morfiend Posted October 26, 2013 Author Share Posted October 26, 2013 Anbody see him on his US tour? Any vinyl at the merch booth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axisrecapital Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 He had vinyl...for about two shows. They all got gobbled up. In the past, he has pressed runs of 300 handnumbered. He added two more releases (a live set and the Dark Mark does X Mas), but again, at his third show in Seattle, they were already sold out!

morfiend Posted October 26, 2013 Author Share Posted October 26, 2013 I went to his Seattle show a couple of years ago and scored the Union Chapel 10". Someone on onewhiskey said he was selling test pressings of Union Chapel at the Portland show, man I would've loved to score one of those.

morfiend Posted October 26, 2013 Author Share Posted October 26, 2013 Almost $50 additional costs for shipping to Germany. Ridiculous. I'm sure they're charging Priority or Express mail to cover their asses with insurance/tracking and I don't blame them. I paid 30 euros recently for a 1LP box set shipped from Belgium to the US.

sciencekiller Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Almost $50 additional costs for shipping to Germany. Ridiculous. If it's any consolation, it's $40 to ship it across the border to Canada, $50 to Germany seems like a steal. I wanted the yellow one, but guess I'll hold off and pick up a black copy in stores down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 So it's not really the "first 150 preorders" that get yellow correct? You have to choose to get the yellow for $6 more? Or are they just giving the first 150 people who order the regular one the yellow version regardless, and if that is the case anyone know how many yellows they have?

Pretty sure you have to click on yellow vinyl to actually get that color. I'm assuming the yellow vinyl option will go away once they sell 150 of them.

Yep, pretty sure that's the case too - or at least that's they way it's been in the past with LITA - as soon as the 150 are purchased it will be gone.

negavinyl Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I'm not obsessed with color variants or anything, but 150 is crazy low for an artist of his stature. Really puts the whole MOV "strictly limited to 3000-5000 color copies" BS in perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
