    Andy wouldn’t have been surprised by his own band releasing and album during lockdown.

    Jokes aside, having a new album and even and old Cope bside or whwatver it was come out has been nice. I like the two acoustic alt versions too.

    Angel of Death may end up passing I Know How To Speak as their best song in my opinion.

    can’t wait to see it live.

    This is still probably my album No. 1 album of the year, but I haven't listened to it in weeks.

    I still want to know what that meant. Sounded like they were going to do something crazy with the deluxe or something - so thank them.

    I think he just went from “no chance the band is releasing a new album” to “oh shit, they are, y’all should thank them”

    Alright, fuck it. Lol

    I’ve covered this in a pretty bare bones way before, but for those in the back,

    the band dropped a fucking insane amount of money - out of pocket, to make sure everything got shipped on time after SCP already said they wouldn’t do partial shipments because things were getting delayed.

    And for all the shipments that came after with things that took longer to come in (hats, coozies, shirts, cassettes, etc.) THAT is all being billed to the band.

    Same goes for the represses that’re coming in December. All shipping is being billed to the band.

    SCP isn’t covering a penny of that, and all fans only paid shipping once - regardless of how many shipments it took/will take to complete one order.

    It’s an astronomical amount of money. They sold a crazy amount of vinyl and merch.

    They could have just as easily said ‘Naw, it’s just delayed - like everything else right now’, like so many of us have been dealing with for over a year. But they didn’t. They footed the bill, and will continue to do so until it’s all finally shipped out end of this year/early ‘22.

    So, yes, ‘Thank the band’, or don’t. It’s whatever.

    I do not regret that statement.

    My digital copy arrived just fine.

    Glad they care about their fans though and it shows

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    is that a new song they just dropped on the latest Patreon live, called "Dark Side of the Moon"?

    it's super nice

    It’s a Chris Staples cover.

    and it’s killer.

    Maybe I just didn’t recognize it but Andy posted a clip of something that sounded new the other day on his story.
