Burkazoid Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Just received mine today. I love the packaging, despite it being minimal - I think it works pretty well in the context. The vinyl itself looks gorgeous too. Hope to give this a spin soon - hopefully there won't be a lot of pops :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHerbalLife Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 All who supported the KS received this in their mailbox but here's the reasoning behind abstaining from the numbering ..as for hand numbering, we decided against it because we initially were going for a 1st press with initial presses after, so numbering would have made sense- but were not going to be pressing any more of this LP outside of the KS, so if your holding it you've got one of 200 pressed. There will be no others. enjoy --- hope everyone is stoked ------------------ peace and punk rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Yeah, that's the dumbest reason I've ever heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youinreverse Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 All in all, it's a number on a record jacket. It doesn't matter at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExtraFox Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Mine came yesterday. Hope it sounds as good as it looks. The Kickstarter page says there were going to be 250 pressed, so those unhappy about the lack of numbering, it's 20% rarer than you paid for. Limited edition 'Melody Summer' 150gram colored vinyl LP packaged in a beautiful letterpress printed sleeve w/ original artwork + high quality multi format instant download code of entire album + A velium printed thank you card with tumbled sea artwork and your name hand written. This album has been long out of press and never released on vinyl until now. Covers printed w/ recycled materials by the legendary Jeff Mueller @ Dexterity Press. Hand numbered and limited to 250 copies. Rare and beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 All in all, it's a number on a record jacket. It doesn't matter at all. That's how I feel. It would have been nice if they'd numbered it like intended and their reason is kind of dumb, but oh well. I feel like the real reason is "we realized individually numbering 200 things was a lot of work." Mine still haven't shown up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abovetheearth Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 All in all, it's a number on a record jacket. It doesn't matter at all. I agree. Having said that, they did say they'd do it. Just an added bonus IMHO. If you say it; do it. Especially when it comes to the fanatic fanbase of record collecting and feeling unique.
