Manchester Orchestra - The Million Masks of God (April 30, 2021) Album • Page 27

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

I’m kidding. We’re fucking losers. My girlfriend can’t find out about what happened last night.

 

The Brooklyn Vegan sea blue is very nice and simple looking. But yes I'm a sucker for limited variants if I have the opportunity to snag one from a album I (will probably) love. I think this is the first vinyl I've bought since Phoebe's Punisher. Before that IDK what the last one was. My desire to own physical media has dwindled overtime.

 

If you need an alibi, just say you bought the other copies as gift for people in this thread. We'll corroborate...after they ship.

 

Why would you compete with Andy? Or even with a guy who eats shoes!?

 

I'm gonna learn German just to get this Germany exclusive vinyl over you just to help me sleep better at night.

Told my wife how much I spent and she left me, said the vinyl can keep me alive when I have to burn it to stay warm.

 

Snagged the hardcover version via bandcamp and paid the extra $30 to have it hand delivered by Andy Hull's ghost.

Psyched.

 

Damn I missed that option

 

Yeah it was under the "shipping" but it looks like it's gone now. Fuck this band is so mysterious.

 

I’m not gonna lie to you, this variant roll out is actually bumming me out.

The labor of love has its limits on the patience...and international shipping.

 

Is this your rock bottom moment? Should we schedule the intervention?

 

Wait until she finds out that you have to eat a shoe.

 

That’d be the least of her worries.

But she might slip me some sauce.

 

gross. This is a family website.

 

Trying to figure out if ‘sea blue’ and ‘light blue’ are the same thing, when you’re colourblind, well, it’s rough.

 

well that was fun.

 

I think we have to wait a month for another single, and then another month for a third single.


Black Mile rollout was:

The Gold - June 9
The Alien - June 22
The Moth - July 10

Album - July 28




TMMOG rollout:

Bed Head - Feb 18
????? - March?
????? - April?

Album - April 30

 

Do you guys think when touring returns MO will be playing larger venues? Like with assigned seats rather than GA clubs? Especially with the world changing with COVID that option may even be available prior to all GA shows? Just a thought

 

I still think Alien was a really odd option for a second single. I think the majority of fans felt that it was totally elevated by sunshine > grocery. If you had to pick one of the 3, grocery would have made more sense. And the surprise of alien > sunshine leading into it would have been massive.

 

Okay... I went back in... Bought Cope (still need Hope) and the MMOG t-shirt...

I'M WEAK

 

How are we feeling about the video? showed it to my wife, who promptly said, "well, that was depressing"

 

Is anyone else as hyped about the koozie as I am? One size. One variant. One purpose.

 

oh man I'm really glad The Grocery wasn't a single. What a moment to experience while listening to the full album for the first time. I think The Alien was the perfect intro to the trilogy

 

Also, if anyone missed the hardcover, or other deluxe variant from their site, Bandcamp still has stock.

The Million Masks of God, by manchester orchestra

 

Ooof that's always the dealbreaker for me. When the shipping costs more than the product.

 

The problem right now, is I was told about another exclusive that may exist soon.

These fuckers have called my bluff.

"You sure you wanna collect this shit? You REALLY sure?"
