Pre-Order Thread

So this pre-order comes with a huge warning but Dream Catalogue is reissuing a bunch of 2814 / Hong Kong Express records and some on vinyl for the first time. I'm on the fence on this one myself as every order I've done thru them is extremely slow (particularly Pre-orders) - with delays and poor communication. If it helps any, I've always received what I ordered just months to > a year after expected date.


2814 - S/T
2814 - Bird of a New Day
2814 - Rain Temple
2814 - Lost Fragments
Hong Kong Express - This
Hong Kong Express - S/T
HKE - HK
Darkpyramid - A Heart Full of Love

I really want to grab the HKE This & S/T and 2814 Lost Fragments. Still thinking about it.

"Andrew Watt acting as the producer,"

Also available from Brandi's site, not sure if there are any differences.
The limited edition cover is pretty tacky, not enough to be nominated for the worst but is pretty bad.

the dude has talent and there must be a reason many different artists across generations like working with him. it's just his produced records sound like ass. everything is LOUD.

the rest of the lineup on this john/carlile record is amazing - chad smith, pino palladino, and josh klinghoffer (basically eddie vedder's earthlings) in addition to watt. hyperbolically, it could be the greatest album ever made, but i will bet dollars to donuts it will make your ears bleed.

My guess is, people who really don’t care about sound like it. That’s aside from the majority of the output I have heard from him being mediocre which may not be his fault.
