Bandbox: an uncompensated review of an interesting new club

[tvham]

My account is all set now too...decided to go with Divine Fits.

Same and same, I already have it on black but like the extras from BandBox. And assuming the sound is on par or better I can just PIF my black copy.

Hmm. Got mine activated. Decision time:

Hayes Carll or Larkin Poe?

I got botp’d. Someone help me pick.
cc: @Twentytwo or someone who knows stuff

got activated and went with Waxahatchee's Cerulean Salt, which I somehow didn't own yet

Such a great album!

That's on my wantlist, too. And I have to check that Jesse malin album out. It's got lucinda and pretty great reviews

I would go with Hayes Carll personally. Larkin Poe doesn't do much for me unfortunately. I picked Lissie last month. Really like what I have heard off that album so far.

I love Jesse and that one is one of his best

Things are a little picked over from previous months, so I can definitely see why you’d want to lock your pick in asap now. No idea why I don’t already own that Hayes, but feels like a solid pick.

Yeah I have everything I really want I think. Part of me wants to get those Laura Stevenson records, but I am trying to be more picky these days. The Wheel is especially good though. They really need to add more exclusives ASAP, now that they have had this huge influx of subscribers.

I like Atmosphere enough that’s if I could have snagged a fancy-ass hand-poured, I’d have done that. But not enough for just marbley.

But I own a LOT of their catalog titles so hopefully there’s not a ton of swapping down the road.

I ordered Larkin Poe if that helps.

I mean last time they did annual stuff, everyone got all their stuff right away.

 

[Hemotep]

Shipping notice for this month's already! Nice to see that fast turn around from time to time.

 

[zdkaiser]

I'm really looking forward to their Jose Gonzalez pressing of Vestiges and Claws. Hoping it doesnt sound terrible, but the other pressings dont have rave reviews.

 

[Murfocakes]

I joined up and went for the Adrianne Lenker album. Can I say the customer care representative I was talking to was superb and really helped me out. Great service and price so far, so well done Bandbox.

 

[CrazyDiamond84]

I hope some more Cap'n Jazz show up. My choices this month so far is between American Football, Divine Fits and Jose Gonzalez. Unless Syd shows up, I'll probably go with that. I also want to see what they go with for War on Drugs or Bob Mould.

Totally new after joining with the super discount. When do they usually release new artists? And are they exclusive to subs or free game to everyone?

I'm not sure if they have set days that they drop new ones, but I think it's been pretty random. They should be free game for anyone, as that's what I've done before signing up for the mega year deal.

Yeah it seems completely random. Usually they give an hour or two notice to subscribers through email before they drop a new exclusive. Speaking of would love to see some new exclusives soon. I assume they are waiting to announce new ones until they actually have product in stock or confirmation it’s on its way from plant. Seems like most everything is delayed these days which has to be frustrating for them and customers.
