woo hoo...my very first pre order post. Dukes of Stratosphere no less. Any one here a fan?

ETA: I will likely pick this up on blu ray 5.1 audio as well.

I have no idea who these guys are.....:sneaky:


In a totally unrelated topic I just got these hung last week.

(And yes...I ordered the vinyl bundle with the 5.1 Bluray - all the 5.1 releases have been great)


I have an original UK pressing of 25 O'Clock and a lilac colored UK pressing of Psonic Psunspot - and the 2010 25 O'Clock vinyl reissue (I think this is still sealed)

They have done a great job with the XTC reissues so far, I expect these to be just as good.

I thought that, too. I looked at the quantity of songs minutes wise, and my love of their music and the “limited quantity”.

Most of the 2LPs(and some 1LP) out now are going way over the $25 price tag this is at before shipping.

Plus, I just love the music so I don’t mind paying for it. :)

I didn’t think about it being a double LP. I’ve been trying to cut down, but I may have to make an exception.

I am too but, I believe it’s worth it. I get pretty irked when it comes to high shipping prices on top of a premium price for well know records. Especially ones that are made in very larger quantities and by big record labels.

VS them who only make so many copies and are on a smaller label who manage lesser known names.

EDIT: I think they’re shipping from Canada, too.

Yeah, I went to their record label page, and it’s Canadian, eh. I checked out more songs (Seven, Numb, Show Me How), and I loved them. Ordered.

I like Pernice Brothers, but why bother with a Bandcamp page and not at least have 1 song that people can listen to?

If you follow his Twitter feed (@JPernicious), I guess Ashmont is helping out but Joyce has a full-time job working for the Mayor of Boston, so Bandcamp makes the most sense. It's essentially a self-release that might not even go into many stores. He's also leaning against streaming, and even hedging against CD's for the moment. The "Fall Tour" is 5 total shows. I think he wants to get the music out there but isn't expecting a huge response.

I agree they should put at least one song up there, but doubt they've radically changed their sound in a way that would scare off long-time fans ;)
 
Of course, the other way to hype a new album is this (typos all theirs; hopefully intentional)... Better to only send it to those who'd care, so PM me your e-dress if you want to be added to the chain. I can Dropbox the songs -

"You know me. I am a seriously person. I don’t usually forwards these kinds of things, but this one was different. I know, I know, you’re thinking to yourself and out loud…chain letters are for losers and infidels. But I stand before you both neither nor both of those. Irregardless, maybe you have heard about this letter, because it has been in the news lately. Not the #fakenews, but the #realnews. Bad things have happened to those who junk foldered this once-in-a-millenials opportunity. And magical things have happened to people who complicited. It’s eazy as One, 2, C!

1. Forward this missave, to five friends (or frenemies, if you think they won’t forward it and want them to be visited by harm.) Put these five people in the “To” field.

2. Copy pernicepromo2019@ashmontrecords.com on your email CC.

If you DON’T follow these exactly directions, bad luck will be your new only best friend. Your dog will have onion soup gas. Your childrain or grandchildren will grow up to be some tipe of supremacist. The same spiritual death bird will defecate on your head every day to mock you. You will have verbosity vegan houseguests who leave wet towels and eat loudly EVERY WEEKEND FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFES. If what I say is to metzaphorical, let me be Frank: you will have BAD, BAD LUCK.

True fact story: A Italio-American music decomposer ignored this email request, and he now has incurable tinituss 25-7 sounds like deathbed Robbie Robson blue guitar.

If you forward this email as instructed with no complaint or timidity, you will receive two unreleased tracks from Pernice Brothers."

I got this email too. It is a very weird way to promote a new album.
 
For anyone after re-presses of Richard Hawley's catalogue, your wish is being granted:


The owner of Richard's first label, Setanta, seems to have moved into the book world. Richard's Setanta releases have been brought back into print alongside his Mute/Parlophone titles, seemingly on the quiet! I've ordered 'Late Night Final' and 'Coles Corner. I have the recent Rough Trade exclusive red vinyl pressing of 'Lowedges' and it sounds great, and have the RT version of 'Richard Hawley' on the way too.

Absolutely. I'm so excited. I had the first 3 already but I'm filling my boots on the others. Especially excited for Coles Corner. I once found it in Stockholm for £200 and am glad I didn't bite (not yet ready to pay that much for any record). I've emailed them about whether they're getting a general release as otherwise I'm going to get killed by customs. But I don't really care...

I'm guessing a family available regular pressing and a probably limited to 300 run for the coloured editions.
But I haven't seen any of the coloured pressings outside of the UK...
P.S. Rough Trade might be getting their own exclusives as well - like they did with the first three reissues.
