Oh ok, i'll keep my fingers crossed that they'll be an extra leftover Even a mis-print or something like that would be great, in fact it would make it kinda special!
Aw poop on a stick, I didn't realize there was a preorder option for the vinyl until now. Regardless, I'm so excited for the vinyl. But if there is the slightest chance of there being any extra posters I would be ecstatic!
Did not know about the pre-order I;m also in the UK So its not going to go up on the UK store? Do you have plans to produce any more?
Got mine in the mail today (!!) and it's awesome. I'm at work, and cannot wait to get home to listen. PS the extra poster is awesome.
I just got my copy in today. It sounds fantastic, but I was a little bit confused as to why "Kin" was not included on the lyrics handout. Also Mountains was missing the very first line "when I was a boy" and starts with "my father seemed a mountain then". I'm under the assumpition kin isn't on there for space purposes, but I was a little bummed regardless because it was cool having the lyrics to actually read along and kind of piece the whole story together in my head (it's way easier with words to read because otherwise I find myself getting lost in the melody). Also I don't know if this was meant to be in there or not but there wasn't any reference to the Severus and the stone full story and the bishops song track. But it's hardly worth complaining about because this record is plain awesome! Also I managed to get one of the special posters! I was so stoked! Thanks ben, and bravo and a fantastic record!
I just ordered from the U.S store a little while ago. It looks like its come today but what I didn't realise is that you have to pay an extra customs charge when it gets to this end. Just though i'd warn ya
That was actually an error on my part, on the lyric sheet. I sent the wrong file to press and didn't catch it until it was too late. So I sent in the rough file, not the final. It'd already been delayed too many times as it was, due to all the pressing problems, so I just let it go. I'm about to finally build the lyrics part of the website, though, so there'll be a PDF of both the stories and the lyrics soon. I think some will be available for record store day. So if you don't mind waiting, that'd be a good day to pick one up. But yeah, shipping overseas can get pretty costly and complicated. I'm gonna be rebuilding the store completely pretty soon, to make it all simpler, but I gotta finish my taxes and preparing Clone first.
Cool! But what is record store day? Looking forward to Clone very much. Any chance of some previews? EDIT: Oh I see, its an event. So you coming back to UK? Or will you have a distributor there?
I will have a distributor. Sorry I'm so slow getting back. But yeah, Nettwerk in Europe picked up some copies of the vinyl, so it should be somewhat available. And I'm going to be putting up a clone preview pretty soon, actually. We're sorting out all the details of the release now. But sometime next month it'll go up.
Finally got my vinyl! Saw a few on Amazon but when I checked again the other day they were all gone! Managed to bag a Record Store Day copy from ebay. Now all I need is a turntable!
For all the vinyl collectors, there is a 2012 limited edition, clear vinyl pressing of 500 copies of Ghost available. Judging by the speed at which the previous two pressings have sold out, it probably wont last long. http://www.anost.net/en/Shop/Radical-Face-Ghost.html?listtype=search&searchparam=radical face This store also has a bunch of other rare Electric President merch aswell.
^Just picked that up even though I already have a black copy. I'm a vinyl addict. My friend picked up The Roots vinyl here on Record Store Day. It's a tiny little shop and I'm still surprised that a copy ended up here! So there were s/t Electric President records in the online store? Bummed I missed out on that one. Most online stores have been backordered (though I assume NLA) for a while.
Yeah, there weren't many. I just found them because I finally finished unpacking. Thanks for the heads up. Hahaha. I didn't know about it either. I'll see if they'll send me a few.
You're very welcome mate - sorry you had to hear it from me! I'm surprised they hadn't told you about it already, and would be even more surprised if a bunch of copies didn't end up on your doorstep pretty soon. I don't suppose you remember how many copies there were in the first vinyl pressing of Ghost? 1000 copies?
I dunno. A lot of things like that happen without my knowledge and I don't find out until years later. But I guess it's partly my fault. I don't really ask. And yeah, the original run was 1k. The second series (no poster, download card instead) was 1k as well. I think.
I found the Ghost vinyl in a record store in Amsterdam a few years ago. Something I was not expecting to find, and I didn't at first. But when I asked the guy from the store, he lead me straight to a section of records from Morr Music, and there it was!
Holy crap Amber! I just checked out your site via the link, and it's amazing! You have some serious talent there. Looking forward to seeing your design work for the radical face project very much
