Manchester Orchestra - The Million Masks of God (April 30, 2021) Album • Page 111

Gonna be cycling through their catalog a lot this week.

 

The band went through a tremendous effort to cover for Second City Prints to ensure that TMMOG vinyl records would arrive on release, even if they were paired with orders for repressings of old records which have been delayed to decemeber. Prior to that TMMOG vinyl weren't being split and shipped separate from the delayed to December vinyl.

The thought is that the same isn't ALSO happening for some merch that was bought with the delays.

 

It was just a TMMOG shirt and the Cope repress.

Again, I'm disappointed, but it's not a huge deal. It'll come when it comes.

 

So, has anyone actually received a tracking number?

 

Buying online versions just seems so much less stressful hahaha

 

current status

 

Also I was able to get that sick Patreon version. Lowkey tempted to get the foggy blue so it matches my ABMttS, but the Patreon version was too stunning to pass up on.

 

"THIS IS THE BEST ALBUM OF ALL TIME AND ANYONE WHO DISAGREES WITH ME IS WRONG BUT ALSO MUSIC IS SUBJECTIVE AND WE MUST BE OPEN TO PEOPLE HAVING DIFFERENT TASTES IN MUSIC BUT SERIOUSLY THIS ALBUM IS THE BEST AND MANCHESTER ORCHESTRA IS A GOOD BAND" - in an excited Kermit the Frog voice.

 

For what it's worth I think it's pretty clearly the most ambitious thing they've ever done and this is the most excited I've been to cover an album in a hot minute.

 

I'm sure you'll be much more articulate than my screaming Kermit reviewer.

 

Just called Second City, Shipped means it's just in their possession and in the process of shipping.

standard shipped - tracking label created today, will be at USPS by tonight
deluxe pink and blue - on hold, shipping soon
deluxe clear pink blue - on hold, shipping soon
Hardbook - on hold, shipping soon
Patreon exclusive marbled blue flame - tracking label created today, will be at USPS by tonight


As for merch.

Coozie, Hat, and slip mat are on pre-order and holding up merch bundle pre-order packages.

All the rest of the merch they have ready to go. Unsure about splitting non-TMMOG vinyl merch if ordered with 6th and 2nd pressings of old records.

 

I was kind of thinking that the shipped status probably didn’t actually mean shipped, especially considering no one received tracking. Glad it was confirmed though

 

Yo fuck a coozie ship my record.

 

Should just be holding up the merch bundles. So the coozie will hold up your t-shirt, not your vinyl.

 

I refuse to listen to this album until I have my coozie.

 

Yeah hardcover is shipped. My merch bundle is payment received :(

 

Ah.

I didn’t even order from second city or whatever, I got the purple record from Barnes and Noble that doesn’t ship until May..lol. Just seemed annoying a few small pieces not being printed on time could screw up receiving a record I preordered 2 and a half months ago on release day.

Hopefully they don’t use this company in the future.

 

Seems to be the case

 

TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS ALBUM NOW

 

EVERYTHING YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS ALBUM NOW

 

It’s a bummer because I like Second City’s shirts. And it’s the first time MO has done shirts in 3X. I hope they still do when they move on to a different company.

 

I need this album in my veins right now.

 

I hope my standard vinyl sounds the same as the deluxe
