Also a bit if Talking Heads ate Kid A whole.

Really good.

No, that was the Crimea.

Aye, the brass does give them quite a bit more over other similar recent bands

Kind of wish I’d got a signed version given some of the photos going round on Facebook

Wow, haven’t thought about/heard anyone mention the Edmund Fitzgerald for years. Appreciate this is the wrong thread to post that.

It’s fine. Have you seen the last 50-100 posts in the IDLES thread? :joy:

In at number 4 in the charts

Mine looked like the one on Discogs, but having looked at that again since looking at mine, It isn’t the same so I’ll report back once I’ve opened mine up again. I know one of them signed UR7 on mine.

is there an obvious, limited release that should be bought over another one (vinyl)?

Looks like there were a few very limited versions

• ‘Test pressing’ /500
• Brown vinyl from recordstore.co.uk /1000

Both sold out, then you’ve got

• Limited edition white w/ inverted artwork – mostly sold out but you might be able to find a shop with some or maybe discogs?
• Then yr standard black LP

Rough Trade Clear Vinyl - For The First Time / What A Time To Be Alive (CD). CD is a compilation of other artists compiled by the band.
Limited to 1,500 (I think).

Think the only one that’s still available is the unknown quantity indies version. I just snuck in in time for the RT one, but was gutted to miss the marbled brown one.

RT and maybe others will almost certainly have another limited version when they make it their album of the year

Fucking stupid isn’t it, I’ve noticed it a lot recently from yer Idles and Sleaford Mods, and suddenly 50 of them pop up on Discogs at the same time for exorbitant prices

5,000 I think for the indie stores white vinyl with the “inverted” artwork. The band posted a link earlier in the week with a list of stores that still had some.

Thanks for the pointers here. Just purchased the white vinyl inverted sleeve £22. Really enjoying it via Spotify for now. A nice addition.

Listen again, definitely worth another try. I’m really enjoying it. Derivative but pretty unique equally.
