Would the TOTS folks potentially be getting the album before official drop date?

August rotm should begin shipping around Aug5-10 or thereabouts. Arrival can be anywhere between Aug8-Dec.If it's the August ROTM, wouldn't it go out at the end of August?
So S-K’s site says album release Aug 16? or something like that.
.............what does that mean for VMP shipments? Would the TOTS folks potentially be getting the album before official drop date?
I've heard Sleater Kinney before but I've never been much into them, I have Le Tigre and Bikini Kill albums and somehow don't have a single Kinney album which is dumb and I probably should but HOW DID I NOT KNOW THAT THE LEAD SINGER IS THE LEAD ACTRESS IN PORTLANDIA
I am a fool.
Corin is actually the lead singer, though Carrie (Portlandia) does sing lead vocals on a number of their songs.
SEE LOOK HOW IGNORANT I AM
Hey @everyone - are those clues for July or August???
AFrica is essentials. Bobo is classicsLooks like all but a lock for Jorge Ben - Africa Brasil and Willie Bobo - Uno Dos Tres.
I'm not familiar enough with either one to decipher which of these would be Classics and which would be Essentials.
salad bowlsHmmmm. Do not know what I'm going to do with these three albums...
WHY I OUGHTA...salad bowls
You're Canadian, your "oughta" will be an almost stern talking point that will turn into a self-lament and ending with you apologizing to me; stereotypes, you have to follow themWHY I OUGHTA...
My Phoenix record has a pretty loud crackle during the first song on side A. Bummer. I emailed them.
Anyone else have this?
I don't have this but that sounds like the usual crap GZ pressing routine. I've had more of these than I can count over the past 1.5 years with VMP. GZ is utter trash.A1 has continuous noise on my copy. I did a needle drop below. Is this what yours sounds like?
Phoenix - A1 - Lisztomania [VMP Reissue].wav

Fairly evident at 0:00, 0:58, 2:07, 3:11, and 4:00, then just kind of disappears as the side goes on.
Disappointing, because the mastering is great.

I still contend that the movement from Fences --> Love Like a Sunset I + II is magic. It's a great pressing, as much as I'm not in a place to desire heaping any praise VMP's way.Popped open this new Phoenix AOTM. I wasn't that plused about it but the low end on Listomania is great.
