Pre-Order Thread

For anyone who buys SACDs and likes Hendrix, this long ago announced gem is finally coming out....

The Jimi Hendrix Experience-Are You Experienced-Hybrid Stereo SACD|Acoustic Sounds

Acoustic Sounds Audiophile Vinyl Records
store.acousticsounds.com

For anyone who will buy it because it is hybrid, but doesn't use an SACD player....keep in mind that the mono is not available on the CD layer.

Speaking of Analogue Productions, I see on Discogs reviews for the UHQR of Aqualung (I didn't buy it but was interested in buyers' experiences), that people received advertisements that the next in the UHQR line-up will be Miles Davis Kind of Blue. I don't know if this was information available elsewhere before this. Fantastic album, but not a great pick IMO. With MOFI having put out a 2LP 45PRM in 2015, I would've liked to have seen something else. I get that the MOFI is OOP now, but, still, I reason that most people who are shelling out for UHQR prices may have very well bought the '15 MOFI. It'd be nice to get something different.

Edit: I saw for the KOB it's supposedly going to be a 1LP 33 RPM @ $100 or 2LP 45 RPM @ $125

The VanishingLines - No Replacement Found

No Replacement Found by VanishingLinesThe VanishingLines is the brainchild of Ian Smith, ably assisted by Stephen Lawrie (Telescopes) and Jake Taylor. ‘No Replacement Found’ is the debut album, a brooding drone masterpiece recorded at The Kingdom of Heaven in deepest, darkest Shropshire...

This is some HEAVY drone psychgaze stuff. Like Spacemen 3 on horse tranquilizers.

no they didn't... they DID do thunderforce IV, Radiant Silvergun, Space Harrier, Afterburner 2 (all sold out), and galaxy force II and thunder blade on a single LP (you can get that one though)

its obvious their main focus is on sega games besides like 2 or 3

you're thinking of brooklyns ship to shore phono company (also i got the preorder date wrong, its on saturday)

I must have been thinking of the company that did some Nintendo and Konami stuff like Mother and Rocket Knight Adventures.

In the interest of equal time, I’d like to take a minute to point out that there are now so many variants of the new Nothing album (shipping this week), all primarily available from the band’s site, that I’ve completely lost track of how many there are.

they, well specifically Relapse Records, love doing that. Here's their first album for example. Since I have all their albums I know to just pick a variant that looks cool and just be fine with it.

I remember when it was announced there were like 5 variants - and they just keep stacking more. I went to the site to see when it actually comes out and saw the latest bandcamp version, which is pretty nifty.

yeah they have too many interesting looking ones. I actually forgot which one I got, it was this one.

I think they're at a point of diminishing returns with all the variants. Like keep it simple. Do a cool splatter for the extremely limited one /500, maybe a solid color or half/half for the less limited /1000 and then a solid color for the indie exclusive /2000 or something. That's all you need.

When they do countless runs and you see a new pressing months later even cooler than one you already have.... it gets annoying as a fan who isn't a variant collector and would maybe have wanted a different version.

I got the same one (just shipped yesterday woo!). I mean it’s cool there’s so many options and being late to the party doesn’t preclude you from getting something fun and weird, it’s just like... wow that is a LOT of variants.

At least those are spread out over a few years, their new one must have about 15 variants straight out the gate.

Edit:

17 and counting - I like how they did a 2nd press before the first was even released :LOL:

This is too much choice. Like when you go into a diner with a massive menu and have no idea what you want. Like.... this is just too much. This one is cool, but also this one, why is this one 500, but this one 3500 when it's more or less just as interesting of a variant....

Absolutely. It's a nightmare if you are the collecting type. I confess I bought one deluxe and one special, the uk one and this one NOTHING "The Great Dismal" LP
