I bet I get the black wax instead. I hope they comp me for international shipping if a gotta send it back. I coulda got the Standard release from my local last week. $10 credit for a Toronto based record store ain’t gonna cut it.

Looks like I was lucky and did end up with the Indie exclusive version. Props to Sonic Boom with being up front about this. I hope everyone else ends up with the correct version.

VMP says that this new album is the 4th LP from them but that's wrong right? They have 2 EP's, this will be their 3rd LP and 1 EP with Leon Bridges

They prob counted that Japanese release

Did anyone get an email confirmation yet from secretly ?

Or they counted the Dub version of the 2nd album

Isn't the Japanese release just the 2 EP's combined though (I have it and that was what I thought was on it)

I did - right away. Went with the totebag + patch bundle... my wife will use it for grocery shopping. Kind of like the VMP variant better, but it's all good...

Yup... right away!

It makes me happy when bands flood the zone with colored exclusives, it makes them all less collectible; or maybe artificially collectible is a better phrasing, regardless I will grab a copy at some point but I will wait for the feeding frenzy to die down a bit.

Yup... right away!

Got it...went to junk for some reason

They're quick! I ordered an older Andy Shauf album from them a couple of nights ago (couldn't find it anywhere else) and it's already on its way.

Glad to hear! It's amazing you already have it too! I think I ordered a day before I posted about it here and mine is still stuck at Canada Post (it's well known they're experiencing bad delays right now).

Does anyone else have trouble adding pre orders to SS shipments on mobile? I can't add Khruangbin to July.

I get this now too. Had to mail them with Phoebe Bridgers preorder and they said no one else had an issue. I had to buy it without free shipping (I am a member) and get them to refund the shipping. A hassle but they did it all swiftly.

I don't think there is a Repress thread, so figure I'd post this here. The last Half Waif album, Lavender, is getting its first lmtd color pressing for its anniversary. The new album is growing on me but I absolutely adore Lavender, so I'm hoping to pick this up on Friday when bandcamp gives all profits to artists:

After much deliberation I went with the pink Khruangbin solely because it’s what I could preorder from my local and I feel drawn to do as much business with them as I can right now. Aesthetically it was my least favorite, but it felt best.
