Last batch of Stereolab reissues:
The clear are sold out already? That’s surprising. I thought these would be around for at least a few hours.
 
So my buddy from High school did the cover art for this album by Hemlock Ernst & Kenny Segal - Back at the House, hopefully you like the music enough to pre-order it

I wanna get this but at the same time $35 is a big ask for an album where I've only heard two songs. Can anyone convince me further why I should get this?

Grateful Dead - Ready Or Not

"
A stirring conclusion to the Grateful Dead's three-decade career, music filled with adventure and possibility, big questions, big punchlines, and cosmic wisdom...

Maybe you were lucky enough and caught a glimpse of what might have been. You swayed to the unfamiliar, floating along with an unknown melody, joining in for a chorus when you felt confident you had it down. Maybe you jotted a fat question mark in your meticulous setlist, certain you'd figure it out before the next show, anticipating a formal introduction in due time.

As if their repertoire wasn't tall enough to reach the endless sky, the band began adding new tunes to their sets in 1992, working them into "quintessential Grateful Dead romps," with the intention of a new studio album. By the mid-90s, they set out recording with the wisdom of Willie Dixon's blues, Neil Young's fuzzed-out guitar, newcomer Vince Welnick's tried-and-true sketches, and Bobby reunited with Robert Hunter on a duo that had quickly become fan-favorites. Alas, it was not meant to be. Until now.

We proudly present READY OR NOT, nine unreleased live versions of late-period Grateful Dead songs that debuted in 1992 and 1993, a reflection of what could have been the band's next official studio album.

Due November 22nd, READY OR NOT will be available on CD, as a 180-gram 2-LP set, limited to 10,000 copies, and of course, digitally as a download and for streaming.

Looking for that Dead.net exclusive? We've got you covered with an exclusive colored vinyl version of the 2-LP set with one red LP and one blue LP, limited to just 2,000 copies. And we'll hit you with that hi-res digital audio too."

I just drooled all over my desk.
 
I wanna get this but at the same time $35 is a big ask for an album where I've only heard two songs. Can anyone convince me further why I should get this?
I bought this on the strength of the “Down” single I heard, which is available along with another song. Check it out. Also, Hemlock Ernst is the motherfucking rap moniker of Samuel T Herring, lead singer of Future Islands. My mind is blown. Dude can rap.
 
This classic is up for preorder on fatbeats.com

I heard it and I like it and the other single, just wish I had more to sell me for $35.
There are 250 copies total and this will sell for more than $35 on the secondary market. I bought it based on it being Kenny Segal and I like his work and they almost never repress records he works on. I also like Samuel Herring. The two singles were enough to sell me along with those other factors. I understand people not wanting to pay $35 for a single LP although I do appreciate that shipping was included. If you end up not liking it, I'm sure you can sell it and get at least your money back on it.

But with all of this said, if you don't want it, don't let people pressure you into buying it! haha.
