SOD

Which we cant order from grrrrr. I dont understand the whole no international shipping as it worked out fine with the 59 sound.

However not willing to pay that much so looks like im going to get the euro press on green which also happens to be 180gm.

I especially don't understand it when they actually offer the international shipping option when you get to the cart

I think thats probably more a software issue their end. They can enforce a block. I tried to order something of them before that was america only and got an email back from the guys there saying it had been rejected.

the internet tell me:

"120-140 g is a 'normal' vinyl LP, like most new releases in the 20th century. 180 g is considered audiophile grade and most new releases and re-releases available today come out in this format. The record is thicker and heavier so it may be less prone to warping over time. Some claim sonic benefits on 180 g's like better stereo imaging, less noise, wider bandwidth, etc."

cool, thanks for the update.

Vinyl collective preorders are up!

http://stores.channeladvisor.com/vinylhome/Items/SDTGAasvc

Posters are 19 x 25, white and metallic silver ink on thick black paper. They are really nice. They will be numbered not signed (1,000 would kill the wrist and patience) and frame worthy. The NYC show will have a sister poster. There are also steps being made to quell the collectors and as well as some ebay-killers.

Got myself one of those. Rather have something a bit more exclusive/limited than 180gm. Works out at around £15 for us Brits that are interested.

Awesome, any different posters coming for the UK audience when the American Slang site goes live at some point today? Or even the same...Would have got one had they been shipped to the UK.

Thanks for that. They sound, and look, real good. Hope we get the chance to get our hands on them later today!

I know they are thinking of printing more poster in Europe so they ship okay and people there are covered. Working with these guys has been quite eye opening about how much they care about the fans and the music. The next few weeks will be fun.

Good to have you here...it's not often people involved and associated with a band can converse with their fans so openly. Just got to wait for the site to get up and running to see what I can spend my money on.

Yeah, thought I would jump on and support the band. Please be kind.

hey El Jefe! your work is fantastic! love what you've done so far! keep up the good work!

Still waiting for the AS site to go live; are they waiting for the west coast to wake up (seeing SOD are on the west coast)?

I'm surprised VC didn't wait longer.

And they sleep late...
