Pre-Order Thread

Well dang, my comment many pages back about it being strange RTJ opened for Lorde really inspired some walks down memory lane on strange opener/headliner combos! Fun to read them. In terms of responses and traction, this certainly beats last time something I commented on in here inspired reactions, which was my unabashed love for TTL notepads. It all neatly comes full circle, since the RTJ/Lorde concert experience story I was commenting on was inspired by the TTL RTJ2 drop. I hope they make a mistake and toss 7 notepads in with my order.
You're going to get notepads instead of a mailer. Just notepads taped to the outside of the record. Don't worry...they'll write "FRAGILE" on each pad
 
Not a pre-order but Respawned Records released another Zelda tribute, this time it's Majora's Mask

 
New (old) Birds of Maya, another Philly band featuring Mike Polizze of Purling Hiss
$22 from Drag City with no download
or $24 from Band Camp with a download
Don't say no one told you about the Polizze @TenderLovingKiller®
 


Not sure if this one was posted yet:

I was just thinking earlier today how I don’t have Jens’ first two albums for some reason even though he’s one of my all time favorite artists. Now I’m just missing “Night Falls Over Kortedala”

He might be one of the musicians I have seen the most live. His shows are great. I need to pick this one up so hopefully it stays in stock for awhile. I have "Oh You're So Silent Jens" and Night Falls. "Oh You're So Silent Jens" has shot up in value for some reason.

Oh so silent has been OOP for a while and it’s one of his most well regarded “albums” I think it’s been going for $50+ for a while now. I don’t think I am gonna drop $40 on a single LP for the ..Be Your Dog reissue but it may inspire me to finally grab the black pressing.

I’ve seen Jens 3 times and each one has been extremely memorable. I distinctly remember moments from each show which is noteworthy as 2017 was the most recent time I’ve seen him. He’s just pure joy.

Yeah I’ve seen a copy in my daily Discogs email going for $129 which is too rich. It’s a 2xLP so the price could warrant a little more. I’d probably pay $70 at the most for it if I saw one go for that much. He should repress that one since it’s got some amazing songs found nowhere else on it.

Yeah, my copy of Oh, So Silent Jens was one of the first new records I ever purchased but I don’t think it’s ever been reissued it since. Makes me wonder if maybe there is a sample clearance issue or something. It seems like a no-brainer reissue.

Funny--it was one of my first new records too! A girl I had a crush on in high school introduced me to Jens and I think I bought a copy to try to impress her haha.

No mention of remastering either, because the original doesn’t sound great
Only WOD record I don't own. My brother introduced me to them when that album came out and even though "Arms Like Boulders" is possibly my favorite song by him, I gotta pass on just a basic colored variant without any remaster, bonus tracks, etc. at that price.
