Sweet, this is generally a fantastic release. The inital release from a couple of years ago was a short run from what I remember and it hasnt been reissued yet. I have been wanting to pick this up for a while but its always £50+ on Discogs plus shipping.

So cheaper than the vmp?

What is a reverse board?

VMP comes to £32 for me.

I just had a look on Discogs and there's 1 available for £80.

I thought there was vat or something now. Maybe they are just fleecing @Joe Mac and @Mather

Bro, I'm in Canada. We don't have VAT.

I don’t know what the rules are in canadialand

What is a reverse board?

I think its essentially the board flipped. So the textured side (usually inside) is on the outside and vise versa.

I haven't been hit with VAT so far.

So the EU changed its rules and all that.
We’d either have to pay VAT at source like they’ve started or they’d have to declare it and we’d pay VAT plus handling on arrival. The previous discretionary amount of €22 has gone and it’s charged to from €0 now. The EU has got extremely paranoid about its markets since Brexit and all the providers are now really strict about charging it. Nothing gets through even with good old An Post. It actually works out cheaper then for VMP to charge VAT at source than the postal provider to charge VAT plus handling charges on arrival. Works out as just over €60 a record on a 3 month sub.

Britain actually changed its rules to mirror the EU ones at the same time but Royal Mail is an absolute shambles at the moment and can’t even properly send out international mail, never mind check and declare customs on incoming mail. Also Britain is being more lax in its implementation of those rules general. So VMP probably haven’t bothered implementing the changes to register and charge for UK VAT.

I don’t know. This is actually my default. Y’all should ignore me more often.

That Cosmic Transitions thing looks cool. No idea what it is and NO WAY it turns out like that, but….

it's a killer album. instantly grabbed this one since i missed out on the initial pressings of it.

Asking for a friend but is it some kind of requirement for VMP to get the ugliest or most boring variant because they seem to usually get it about 75% of the time?

i agree with you but it is funny you posted this right after the crazy isiah collier variant

I did say 75% of the time and I doubt it will look that good. I am still salty about the National High Violet debacle.

Seeing you all post about this Isiah Collier makes me want to get it. Stupid fomo

give it a listen.

I love Isbell, but am I the only one who's starting to get Springsteen vibes from him?
Both the good (Amazing Songwriter, killer band) and the not so good (a little self-righteous, acts like a "man of the people" while charging his fans an awful lot).

I think those things are sometimes interrelated at least from a songwriting standpoint. Especially given the types of songs he writes.

Tickets for virtually any known act, especially in a bigger venue, are just bonkers right now.

Back to this discussion. At least the Portland date is $60 and it's all GA. I'd rather pay more for a theater but bigger venue for him and a fair price in my opinion.

 

[bdm105]

give it a listen.

3min in right now. Ummm yeah bells and lemon of pink vibes so far

IIRC the splatter got reversed (was supposed to be purple with white splatter and was white with very little purple splatter).

The Mockup was one of the coolest looking variants ever.



What we got!
