    I say 3.  10c, retail, and RSD version.

    This seems likely.
  • I hope the coloured version is matching the art directors idea for the art. And not just "random"

    Different question: How soon after the "10C Exclusive" is announced will it appear in Target and at other retailers?

    I have always been a “just pick the one I like best” guy for variants, but if I wasn’t that RHCP album would have made me one

    I couldn't remember which one of these I got. I just looked and it was Red. I got the baby pink for the Dream Canteen album. They also had a lot of variants for that as well.

    Bound to be more than three. Wouldn’t be surprised if there are extra one off variants (eg like those U.K. Blood Records ones which have been done for most famous bands recently - eg Green Day, QOTSA etc)

    PJ doesn't seem as hardcore on colour variants as other bands.  I suspect 3.   regular black version, a special 10c pressing in some kind of colour, and a random variant from a single online retailer somewhere.

    They didn't even do a variant for Gigaton, so I suspect were not going to get 9 versions.  Maybe a long the lines of how many Earthling got? (which I guess was 4, but I'm still going with 3).

    Would be cool if we got standard black, yellow & white variants ☺️ (official album cover dependant of course 😉)

    Might a pre-order possibly go live tonight? Contemplating setting an alarm for 5am (I’m in the UK) in case a 10C variant goes live. Hmm 🤔

    Wow.  That’s a lot!  But RHCP is a huge band.  I think my post was more in the direction of if a semi-famous band like Gaslight Anthem can drop 9 variants than surely PJ can have more than three.  💪🏻

    That’s what I think as well based on what it says in the store as “crystal clear-indie only”
