Pre-Order Thread

Heads up - for anyone who missed this, probably your last chance to grab it. I personally doubt it gets another pressing.

Mix Master Mike - Conquest - LP

Worldwide exclusive. Both formats come with a full length bonus CD featuring Mike's skills as he turns the whole album into one continuous mix (this also features an unreleased jam featuring MCA). Conquest is the first studio since 2004's 'Bangzilla' classic from the legendary Mix Master Mike...

1,000 pressed, sold out on USA, and I just ordered from UK (ironically cheaper, but it's 50% off)

I just listened to it all on Soundcloud and it's pretty bad ass if you like Mix Master Mike. Peep it here! The first 3 minutes are probably the weakest, so don't judge from that! :)

First official album in like 15 years, and IMHO his 2nd best.

@Jonathan Y - this is all you baby boi

Damn missed the limited variants. There’s no reason this album should be as good as it is. I’m astounded really. They sound absolutely fantastic. I’ll pick it up eventually.

I'm kinda surprised they all sold out this fast.

I also missed them....oh well. The digital copy from Fat Possum is only 160kb/s....so that kinda sucks.

Damn! Was holding out until I got paid, and all of the limited variants are gone. I'll still probably get the black though.

I'll let you in on a secret - limited variants don't mean squat. They're a FOMO money grab. If you're truly a music fan, what matters is the quality of the music. It's what's in the grooves that matters, not the color, how many were pressed or if it has an embossed number. And if it's X, I can guarantee the grooves are fine. I reckon they'd personally prefer black vinyl based on their origins.

You're always a man of words, Uncle D. It'll be enjoyed for years to come on the OG black grooves, as Lord Ozzy intended 🍻
 


That entire album, really.

(”Putting People On The Moon” and ”The Buford Stick” are both better Alabama-specific songs but don’t have the state’s name in the title and I’m late so I’m not really clear on the rules of the game here, and don’t want to spam this thread because I don’t like when other people do it.)
 
Only still technically a pre-order, because it's COVID-backordered.

Mazarin is releasing their 2005 album We're Already There on Vinyl for the first time. Mazarin is a Philly band that flew in the Walkmen/Dr. Dog/Clap Your Hands circle in the early to mid 2000s (I think I saw them open for each). The Walkmen covered their song Another One Goes By on their most under-appreciated and/or weakest album 100 Miles Off.

The man behind the band (Quentin Stoltsfus) eventually had to change the name due to a lawsuit, but he occasionally releases music under the name Light/Heat. Their self titled album is great too.
