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.

Were the original reissues in 2014 much sold beyond Setanta? I see I bought all 3 from there then and can't remember wider availability (I guess the reissues were recently reissued)

Those reissues have been reissued a few months ago on coloured and regular vinyl.
I'm unsure about the availability of the 2014 pressings back then.

The 2014 reissues did make it out into the wild - think my local was able to get them at one point and sure I saw them on Am*z*n. I've been waiting on the new reissues of the first three turning up in shops but hadn't seen them - looks like the clear 'LNF' was delayed and I missed the red Rough Trade version.
 
As part of Rough Trade's Essentials, Angel Olsen's Burn Your Fire For No Witness is being repressed on red vinyl, ltd to 300.

Think I prefer the Setanta colours but good to see it's getting another release too...

Same here.
Feels like a missed chance to match artwork and vinyl colour. :(

Me three!

I think red suits the self-titled and maybe 'LNF', but not so much 'Lowedges' or any of the others other than 'Coles Corner'.

That said, the main thing is that they're available again.

There will also be an indie exclusive on yellow which will be a lot more affordable for those of us on this side of the Atlantic. And of course standard black.

I saw this listed earlier. Maybe here? And had it bookmarked for awhile. Checked it late one night and they had a special ending with a signed cover art print included at no extra charge. Made the postage easier to take. I Caved. Hoping it is packed well for shipping and it arrives in mint shape.
 
One of my favorite folk singer will release a new album in November! If you don't know her and want a starting point, then listen to her song The Ravens from her sophomore album Victorian America, released in 2009, or Keeley from her fourth album Blood/Lines, released in 2013. She's surprisingly quite unknown out there but should be discovered by those who like epic folk songs sung a la Cat Power. Give yourself a favor and listen, at least, to these two songs.


Emily Jane White is a musician, songwriter, and poet from Oakland, CA. She began performing under her own name in 2003 and released her first album "Dark Undercoat" in 2007, with "Victorian America", "Ode to Sentience", and "Blood/Lines", "They Moved in Shadow All Together" (2016) following. White has cultivated a dedicated audience in Europe and North America.

Emily Jane White’s new album, "Immanent Fire" (Nov. 15th, 2019), juxtaposes a heavy melancholy with an intimate touching lightness. A masterpiece !

Written over a two year period, Emily Jane White’s sixth album “Immanent Fire” recognizes our moment at the precipice of species annihilation, as she guides her listener through the feeling of life on a planet at the brink of destruction.

Acknowledging these conditions in which we live, White offers what she has been best suited to on all of her albums: an exploration of the internal world. What is the feeling of life in the capitalocene? Here, White offers a compassionate but also raw exposure of the anxiety, addiction and depression that have become normative. At the same time, she produces an alternative path: the revaluation of the feminine, the receptive, the vulnerable, the emotional. A turn toward the center, the appreciation and experience of life itself—a practice which has, in our moment of ubiquitous despair, become a form of resistance.

Ten songs present a deepening storm of melody that offers the hopeful ray of Emily’s voice as the waves of rhythm crash and dance around her. Just before—or perhaps after—the despair seems to overwhelm, her vocals open up and bloom like a lens flare, creating an ecstatically painful emotional brilliance that the listener clings onto with pleasure. Her voice is the listener’s guide, a steady and reassuring presence as they march through eerie landscapes, caverns of reverb, church organs and synthetic arpeggios. The occasional samples of birds, insects, and thunder mix with the blend of electronic and acoustic instruments, a subtle reminder of the necessary link between the fate of our ecology and the moral use of technology.

White’s new album juxtaposes a heavy melancholy with an intimate touching lightness through her singular alto voice backed by orchestral percussion, soaring strings, heavy guitars, a choir of voices, and an overall cinematic presentation of dynamic songwriting.
