I feel like this is a worthwhile one, plus they're one of my three (equally) favorite bands so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, James said that he wanted a day-of-release wide pressing of vinyl so I don't know if it'll be that soon.

hello humans. this is just a note to say that we're done with the record. like, totally done with the music and mixing. just some art stuff to finish, but it's been mastered already and the lacquers are winging their way to the pressing plant (which is, i think, where they'll make the mothers and stampers, etc.). i've been wrangling the fastest route between final mix and record release for the past few weeks so that there isn't such a lag, and i think it'll be soon. 6 weeks is the very fastest, i think, but it will likely be longer than that. just trying to get all the ducks in a row so that there's someone with a catcher's mitt waiting at each stage. we mixed the last song last wednesday, and korey ran to (a national overnight carrier) to get it to bob weston over at Chicago Mastering Service for the next morning. then we took off to play sasquatch in washington, and now i'm home proofreading lyrics and credits and all that crap. sorry it took so long, honestly. i didn't think it would, but i, once again, underestimated the distractions inherent in touring and living a "life". this will be the last record at the original DFA Studios, as we're closing that down after the building was sold, so there's a lot to digest for me. i've been there nearly 20 years now, and i wasn't a particularly young man when it opened, so there's that.
anyway, be well, thank you for yr patience (even when it manifested as semi-angry "where the fuck is the RECORD< james!" posts!) and very much looking forward to getting this to you.
james

Wondering what full price is. Can't decide what I want to do.

It was like $6 extra for the Brooklyn Steel ticket from the last few times due to the album. I'm not going to complain.

I'm assuming. Do you want to upgrade to vinyl? Lol yeah I was just joking around with you cause I don't care about having a digital version since it'll just be on Spotify I assume. Already was planning to grab a vinyl of it though, what was the vinyl option they sent you? |

the version you get without the upgrade is still a CD

LCD has a six day gap between their Detroit and St.Paul shows in November, so I'm pretty convinced that they will announce at least one Chicago venue show after Pitchfork

Also, kinda ironic considering that Bowie didn't play live shows for the last 11 years of his life.
