Feel indifferent towards the cover art / font but all signs point towards a dark theme which is nice :) Would like to have a look at it again but bleep is kill. Welcome back M&M! Also BoCset when?

Seems like there's a continuous mix? Can't reach the page though, Bleep is struggling right now.

Ive got my order confirmed but, ive definitely been in situations before that ppl are experiencing now trying to get their orders through and know how frustrating it is. Kinda disappointing that they didn’t prepare for this to be honest, especially if the deluxe version is limited in number. I hope it’s not and i hope you all manage to get the items you’d like.

I was surprised too, Warp's usually true blue, so I take the inferno of Bleep's gateway as their explicit agreement to manufacture as much as the eventually registered preorder demand asks for. After all, f5'ing for days is sorta anti-BOC.

Don't forget the small indie stores. They will all have a chance to order the red vinyl. I've no doubt that the number of copies will be into 5 figures.

Their Bandcamp has updated as well.
They've got the vinyl listed, two new shirt designs, and a hat.

I'm over-filled with excitement and joy.
Yet Bleep.com crashing is bringing me right back down to Earth.

Hopefully the red vinyl is 'special' rather than limited.

So far, no image of back cover or LP labels. Anyway, what a fun drop this was!! I agree track titles are exciting as hell. All Reason Departs? "Magic" twice. "Time" twice. "Blood". Really, it's every title for me, I could go on. And for a time, I followed a firm rule where all my mix CDs were 18 tracks. Prepare yourselves, people.

The title is associated with the Divine Comedy of course, but I also like how the word fern is in an album title now.

Age of Capricorn, Capricorn is an Earth sign, today happens to be ‘Earth Day,’ stone circle imagery in the video.

Oh my....


Bleep's issues suggest that they maybe weren't ready for a release announcement today? I'm tempted to hold out for an in-person purchase from Avalanche (who don't forget were involved in the Tomorrow's Harvest mystery 12" shenanigans)
