    Well the "limited first press" has been updated again (originally 300, then 500) to 750
     
  3. I was about to post this. Good for them! Might as well respond to consumer interest like this. I'd rather more people get to have the product than for me to have something that's "more rare"

    Same, very happy that more people will be able to get this. At only $50 too. I was very surprised by the low price. They definitely could have charged more and still have sold just as many.

    Buuuut since it is a supposedly a limited run, I would love for them to be numbered.

  5. Agreed. Except I wouldn't call $50 cheap. Even for a limited run triple, I was expecting $35-40. Perhaps I'm naive, but this feels like a Hot Topic/Urban Outfitters-range price tag

    I was thinking 40 but gladly spent the 50 as Mae is one of my favorite bands. Also love seeing the support they are getting on this! The note also sounded very positive for future Mae material. Excited.

    I honestly was expecting between $60-70. Most releases are between $20-25 these days for just one record, and here we are getting 3. I'd say $50 is a steal.

    Is it showing as sold out for anyone else? :(
     
  9. I was shocked by the new ending of "Over & Over." That whole song sounded entirely re-recorded

    I am noticing a lot of remixed potions of songs with parts that were either buried in the mix last time or recorded new and recently added.

    It's lovely.

    This is so refreshingly good.

    Pretty sure the first press is officially sold out. Bumped from 300 to 500 and capped at 750.

    Is anyone else having an issue with track 13 (A Quiet Evening/Bloom) skipping towards the very end? Just heard that this morning. Might have to reimport the files or something.

    No issues here.

    It's at the end of Sleep Well, so it's still there. they resequenced the album and honestly, I prefer Seasons as the last track. It makes for a very nice epilogue to the entire album.

    Guess I'll try Re-downloading it. Thanks!

    Good luck! If it doesn't work for you, let me know. I can send you the track via dropbox.

    That's awesome - thank you so much for the heads up.

    Probably the one I want on vinyl most now. Even yesterday I was toying with the idea of snapping it up for $100+ so this is awesome news to my ears and wallet

    No problem. Spartanrecords.com says orders will go live in November. I've thought about spending the $100+ several times too.

    I'm sure you've received the email but just to let you know the pre-orders have gone up! Haven't been this excited about a vinyl release in a while.

    I opted for the 'Anything' package - looks amazing!

    I grabbed the 'Anything' variant as well. Can't wait!

    Yep. I ordered the same one. Debated back and forth with the rarer Breakdown variant but opted for the cooler looking Anything variant.

    Seems to be the popular variant.

    I thought that too - I thought about it - time was I'd always spring for the rarest option (or all options). But as I've gotten older (and more sensible with money) I tend to just go with whatever I like the look of best. They look absolutely amazing in the pictures, I hope they live up to that when they arrive!
