my bloody valentine 2013 (1 Viewer)

[Jim Daniels]

CD arrived today.

Whatever about the arguments over the quality or otherwise of the music, after 20 years, they really could have come up with better packaging/ design.
Maybe the vinyl sleeve looks better....

jewel case or digipak Jim?

Its digipak thankfully, but the images on the sleeve and inlay card are pretty lame/ unattractive.
Loveless and Isn't Anything are both way better looking

Still no sign of that platter. Anyone got theirs?

Not yet. Hopefully Monday - I never seem to get UK parcels on a Friday. God's will I presume.

 

[Flux]

I'm jonesin' to have it for the weekend. Nothing like cranking an album full throttle of a Saturday afternoon. The wavs just aren't the same.

 

[east hastings]

Yeah i'm still waiting

 

[washingcattle]

Wow it's not like My Bloody Valentine to leave their fans waiting for their album.

 

[Cornu Ammonis]

I had a missed delivery note on Friday so I'm hoping it's this.

 

[NoNo]

Still no sign of any Irish gigs this year. Jim Carroll wrote in otr that no offfers have been made to them yet, which seems pretty surprising

[Flux]

This still hasn't feckin arrived.

 

[nlgbbbblth]

Ditto.

 

[Kermit McDermott]

I only ordered it on Sunday.

 

[joe_c]

Still waiting too

 

[dunderhead]

no sign of mine

light in the attic records(based in seattle) just posted a picture of their LP that arrived on their fb page. bottom of the cover completely torn, lp able to slip out easy peasy. no bubble wrap, seems as though it was just fucked into cardboard packaging. well shoddy

edit: on further inspection of comments on that fb photo, seems to be a common complaint

 

[dudley]

yup, mine arrived a couple of days ago. two copies in one package, no shrink wrap, and both slightly damage. minor damage, like, but considering the money paid.....

 

[David Kronenbourg]
