Pre-Order Thread

Maybe. I don't think that's entirely accurate, though. The Boogarins, Feels, Lafawndah, Middle Kids, and Hatchie albums are still there and those were runs of 300. Blanck Mass has passed the same window that Crumb sold out within, but time will tell on that, I guess. Grace Lightman is also still in stock. The overwhelming majority of everything else they still have, as far as store exclusives, are pressings of only 500, which still seems pretty low. I feel that FOMO/hype surrounding a release even feeds into the idea of whether you could resell it or not, if you don't like it.

The forum numbers were enough to push a lot of them over the top, especially where you had a thread reminding you of titles, discussing them, and asking for inventory counts, along with winks keeping people from buying variants elewhere. Has a single exclusive sold out since the forum was erased? It seems like the ones I remember hearing about are still there, but I don't know.

I think it is three-fold, I think the forum was a huge help in selling exclusive (as you said), I think the poor announcement model (the wink system you mentioned being a part of that), and having too many exclusives with the "big" ones are just another color variant.

IKEBE SHAKEDOWN - Kings Left Behind

CATALOG: CLMN-12034 RELEASE DATE: 8/16/2019 Ten years ago, Ikebe Shakedown began pushing the boundaries of instrumental music. Each new track and live set has sent them deeper into combining the primal elements of ’70s soul, raw psychedelic style, and cinematic.

From like 92-98, Trey Anastasio was one of the best guitarists on the planet.

His phrasing and creativity during this period is really something to behold.

It’s unfortunate but he has fallen off of a cliff as a player and does not have a fraction of the dexterity he once had.

But as far as improvisational playing, I’d put that era up against anything.

this is my not so subtle way of saying, "let's move the discussion of band that you hate that everyone else love into a new thread" so this thread is only for pre-order related business
