pretty much the same exact thing happened to me since it took so damn long. Only time I've forgotten I ordered a record the entire time I've been collecting.
Topshelf's fullfilment company went bankrupt and they lost access to all of their inventory and recently got it back. that plus the absurd backlog at pressing plants led to these getting shipped now I also recently just got my Bellows album from them as well
Yeah this was one of those things where I would remember it every 2 weeks or so and get a little anxious about it. Glad mine finally arrived.
Oh i was also obsessive lol. I messaged the band on IG a few times during the wait. They kindly replied each time
It’s prime AGBPOL season. Listened to YAOMM yesterday on the way back from the beach and it hit just right. Also looks like they’re signed now. Would love new music or a tour soon

Only three songs from Pono is an interesting decision but I’m sure it was a phenomenal show. They’re the most fun band to see live.
Saw them in Chi last night. Originally was hoping to go to tonight’s show but they sold it out and announced an album play for HYSMPC the day before, which isn’t as familiar for me but was still crazy. Impossible to not feel good while listening to these guys.
This has been my summer album every year since it came out. It’s been hitting mid to upper 80s in New Orleans and I’ve felt compelled by instinct to put this on. I would really love some new music.
