In all seriousness, if Jack White got wind of the idea of "label outside the label area" he'd make a picture disc but with the "picture" being the label and track information in the grooved play area and then a blank center.

Or else put the label along the outside and the label area would be the play area. Good luck getting it to play since a lot of turntables auto-return when they reach the dead wax.

I got one of these from his label!




In all fairness, when I showed this picture to the customer service lady they sent me another copy right away for free.

Wait, is that just some dark swirl in the translucent vinyl or is the label on the reverse side also off-center?

Lol. Bought this on a whim. I've never even heard a taytay song (that wasn't some beep-boop techno remix). I'll throw it on with no preconceptions and see how it sounds.

When it was pressed an extra label ended up on that side and got pressed into the grooves.

They had a few left over after the Indiegogo campaign that people could just buy. Anyway this album rules if you didn't listen to it yet. I'm also kind of new to the Residents and was wondering if any of their other albums have the sort of sound from this one or which ones you'd recommend to me if I liked Live in Holland.

My sound system (bought in the '90s with my first DVD player) kicked the bucket a couple weeks ago, I've been sitting on a pile of poo poo that I haven't been able to play, including the new fancy record.

Like pretty much everything they've released, it kind of stands on its own as its own thing, but there's a bit of cross-over with the Cube-E show, though it lacks Snakefinger's guitar work. Feel free to pop on into the thread sometime if you got any questions.

EDIT: Oh! Monkey and Bunny's off Title in Limbo, the album they did with Renaldo and the Loaf (it doesn't sound like either of them). Underrated.

To get the full experience though, you need to get a second turntable so you can play an Alan Watts record over top of it.

Have you been charged? I think you still may be able to cancel because they don't charge me until the second of every month. That first "Your record is shipping soon" email is just their way of reminding you that the upcoming release is going to be shipping soon, not necessarily that you've been charged.

I'm definitely selling mine. Hopefully it will pay for the subscription. I gotta say they have pretty great customer service. My Demon Days was defective and they sent out a new copy ASAP and I get to keep the other. Only skips on one song so I'm gonna give it to my friend who is a big fan.

I think I was able to cancel in time actually. Thought about trying to flip it or trade but I'd rather not deal with the hassle when I'm sure somebody out there would be happy to get it at cost.

I accidentally wrecked my art print once and emailed them asking for another... they sent me an entire new album and when I tried to return it they told me to keep it so that was cool. Their customer service is top notch if you enjoy the releases.

It would've been neat if they had gotten the Watts speeches from the game. But, you know, additional licensing stuff and all that.
