When is Fanny supposed to start shipping? I’ve seen people on here and reddit receive copies so far.

When they decide they want to. It's the VMP way, after all.

Just saw a photo of the VMP Khruangbin variant on reddit and while not as terrible as The National, it looks like it is another poor mock up vs. reality.

Dammit.

I've said it before and I will say it again


Fuck
These
Hoes



Not expecting much from the Oliver Nelson

Oh wait, for what it’s worth it looks like that last mockup just didn’t get much blue thrown in. Here’s another look at another press, actually looks pretty sweet.

That looks much more on point. Maybe the blue is all on side b. (the photos are of opposite sides).

The fellow who posted the first pic with the super pink one said his pressing doesn’t have much blue anywhere on it so poor QC there. Similar to how some of the Stooges records were so dark red they just ended up being black *cough cough* mine *cough*

Fingers crossed on Oliver Nelson, the VMP variant looked so fucking sweet.

This is why I've started saving the pages of VMP exclusives I buy, since VMP likes to kill the page after a certain point. It's good to have the ability to go back to the original mockup/description details.

Be careful of mock up posts on reddit...I did it to Fanny and got destroyed...some people just don’t get it I guess and will accept anything vmp throws at them, regardless of what it It was described as and what it actually looks like

Btw...my vmp Khruangbin looks spot on to mockup

 

[NewsFedora]

wat



Edit: It also claims Oliver Nelson is in stock.

That's appears to be a lot of yellow where blue should be.

It’s why I tend not to overreact to one post about mockups vs what it actually looks like. They won’t all look like the mockups or look identical to each other. In the case of The National, I think people are justifiably angry about it—they paid more for a variant that was just completely incorrect. The Fanny one is bad too. The person on reddit Who posted Khruangbin wasn’t even mad about it at all it seemed yet people were saying they were already going to ask for a refund before they even received their copies.

Also, the music is bad. And I LOVE these guys. Disappointment of the year........well.....musically, anyway.

It ain’t bad... but it ain’t great... nothing new, just more vocals?! Ehh
it’s definitely a middle of the road.

Yeah fair enough. Objectively I guess it isn’t bad, but it’s by far their worst music. Combine that with my own personal sky high expectations(which they’ve earned) makes it bad. This exemplifies why I try to never preorder new releases. No matter how much you love a band, their next album might just suuuuuuck.

That's why I'm a little nervous for BADBADNOTGOOD's next album. IV was a straight-up masterpiece and I'm not sure how they'll sound since one of their founding members left the band.
