Is sky pressing something? Can you link me to the article please or give me more info?

 

No it looks like it's just the picture disc version.

 

 

Yeah there's no way that Xiu Xiu is out of 100

 

It's not me presenting it as fact, I'm basing it off modern-vinyl site haha did you even look at it? It's possible they meant 1000 but you never know

If that Xiu Xiu is out of 100, I hope it's strickly a Greatest Hits with nothing new on it.  That way I won't have to worry about tracking it down.  It really doesn't seem cost effective to do a run that small, I'd be surprised if that was a correct number.

 

Sadly that Xiu Xiu is correctly listed at only 100 copies.  There are several things coming out this year (e.g. Lemonheads, etc.) where the pressing numbers are very very low.

CHVRCHES Recover 12" getting released in the US for RSD:

 

As part of Record Store Day 2014, a vinyl pressing of Chvrches 2013 EP, Recover, will be released by Glassnote Records. The EP was pressed once in the UK at the time of original release, but never in the U.S. The run will be on clear orange 12″ vinyl, while packaged in a bootleg sleeve and hand-numbered.

The pressing will be limited to 2,300 copies.

Here's what Bullmoose says about the Xiu Xiu Hits package - might have to get it it just for the bonus CD (cost is $40 on their site):

 

All tracks re-mastered on double vinyl in a handmade, individually numbered sleeve. Includes 21 track Rarities CD.

 

A handmade sleeve makes sense of the fact that it would be /100. I would have to imagine that would mean there's a non-RSD version coming later on if that's the case.

I wonder if it's the Grave Face artist who does their test pressing art who's doing the artwork for the 100...

 

Damn now that's definitely an indication my record store might carry 1... They're also strict about the 1 copy per person otherwise I'd love to help someone out. What I love about the record stores I have that participate in RSD is that the one run by older folks opens about an hour later anyways haha

...Motherfuckers. I wanted my RSD list to be short, then stuff like this and the MGMT represses pop up.

Here are a few details from an email sent by Xiu Xiu back in November. Haven't seen any update on this release from either Xiu Xiu or Bad Paintings since then, but it sounds like the downloads have become a CD.

 

"a 2002-2012 "best of" double LP super limited edition hand made covers

one LP of "pop" songs one LP of dirges, ballads and experimental songs

this will also include a download of 20 or more hard to find songs from 7inches and comps.

on Bad Paintings"
