    Rough Trade UK is taking pre-orders for the vinyl. So it will most likely be everywhere.

    Is there anything different about their pressing v. the one in her store? Thanks in advance
    no one knows. It won't be released until June. At the very least, no. Probably not. It may be the same cut but pressed at different plants. These are basic assumptions that you can make based on how other large records are produced. 

    Color wise, no one has said anything. She's never had colored wax, so it stands to reason this sin;t any different unless advertised.

    The opening song I Want You To Love Me is a powerful tone setter then right into the dazzling Shameika followed by the revelatory title track and finally the perfectly apt Under The Table and you've just hit a grand-slam with the first 4 songs. As great as those first 4 songs are somehow Newspaper goes to an even different level. The rest of the album is unrelenting in its sheer brilliance. The reviews this album is getting is reminding me of when OK Computer came out. 100 meta-critic rating from a combined 25 reviews from around the world is crazy including the first Pitchfork 10 since Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Usually this isn't the instrument that stands out on most albums but, the drums/percussion is just exceptional! At this point with this album she's entered for me rarefied air and I've been a huge fan since Tidal. She's batting a thousand 5/5 with her releases.

    Everything you just said times 100. Name another artist who’s five releases are 5 masterpieces but they all get better than the last. Each album
    is a step beyond the prior one. This album is a jump outta the galaxy. This album brought tears to my eyes with its beauty on my first and second listen and I don’t cry at funerals. 

    If taking forever between albums brings magic like this, Gigaton, and Fear Inoculum, then it’s all worth the wait. What a great time for new music, bring on the new Deftones.  
    Peace,Love and Pearl Jam.

    I‘m with you. When the Pawn... is one of my favorite albums of the ‘90’s, but I’ve tried this one a few times and i‘m just not vining it.

    Nice to see The Idler Wheel offered as a VMP swap today. I missed it earlier, and I never could get into Spiritualized.
    I SAW PEARL JAM

    I’m keeping mine, but if there were people getting one for a trade on the VMP swap and if that’s an extra Fetch the Bolt Cutters I see in your photo, it could come in handy down the line. I’m hoping my sealed aubergine one—I forgot I had already ordered a regular one from her site much earlier, which plays beautifully—will fetch a Tidal or Extraordinary Machine down the line. I think VMP pressed a shit ton of Fetch the Bolt Cutters, but I think they did Tidal as well, especially after the SNAFU. Extraordinary Machine, I think I’ll just have to wait for a repress. Maybe that one will get the minor VMP treatment.

    I was trying to figure out where you saw a possible second Bolt Cutters but that’s the print that came with the VMP Tidal release.
