Holy shit, i thought the 6€ DHL fee was bad . Whos charging that ? Post Denmark ?
Yeah, been a standard fee for some years now. It used to be half that once upon a time.

I got a customs bill from Fedex for some records i bought last month from Acoustic Sounds and their fee looks to have gone up i think $4-5 more than what PostNord charges. I think DHL is cheapest of the bunch.

But it's absolutely ridiculous. 25% tax up to a certain amount, then import tax is added on top along with handling fee.
I would contact your political representatives office, scamlicious charges!
I'm not sure who decides the fees but i think i could call the tax revenue office and ask.
 
Damn, I never even heard of that Fever Dreams album and decided to give it a listen due to that awesome cover and it's a great mf album!

Are you pretty familiar with Villagers? If so, what are there best album(s) in your opinion?
I'm spinning it again now. It's so good. Glad you dig it! The album has a diecut sleeve and has 4 prints behind it so you can change the album art if you want. The pressing is nice too. Good deal from the Target sale.

Yes--I'm familiar with them. They are an irish band. I really loved their debut, Becoming A Jackal. Listened to it nonstop when it came out. I've only recently revisited their other albums in the past year or so. Was reminded of them when they did a cover of The Wonder of You on the Big Little Lies soundtrack. I'd say Becoming A Jackal, Fever Dream and The Art of of Pretending To Swim are my three favorites off the top of my head. But I think there is stuff to like on all their records.

I recently picked up the 10th anniversary pressing of Becoming A Jackal too recently and that pressing is great.

Yeah, the whole release is pretty rad after checking it out a bit closer! It was nice to see most of there stuff seems to get good feedback from what I seen on discogs and from you so i'm guessing i'll probably end up with this and that 10th anniversary sooner then later haha.

Appreciate the reply/recs though! I'll give there debut a listen next along with Swim to get a bit more familiar with them before going deeper into the catalogue.
 
I bought this album because I remembered you posted in Instagram. Considering how I love the Gloaming, thanks to you, I thought I should give this record a try.

I really like them and it’s a nice album. I prefer its follow up but both are really good! It was actually @panino who introduced me to them during my Gloaming month!
