Apparently avey constructed the artwork large scale out of posters and stuff, which was then photographed from above

already got the shipping confirmation! I'm excited

Got an ad for it and etch a sketch on dailymotion.

Post **Posted:** Sat Nov 16, 2019 5:41 am

I don't want to spoil this if anybody wants the etching to be a surprise, so I'll spoiler the image. But I was curious as to what the etching was going to be. I did a little zoomo on one of the photos on the shop page. Have a look for yourself, I isolated the LP with the etching and edited it drastically to bring out what it was. I love it.

Spoiler: show

That's sweet!...Is it as sweet as another side of music? No but still pretty cool.

Woah! I’m banking on this (hopefully) being available in store. If so I’ll probably grab from Amoeba on release day

Part of me is (selfishly) bummed the Sydney show (that I attended) didn’t make it onto the record in any capacity but I suppose I’m luckier than most in that the entire concert footage is available on YouTube via the band’s channel.

Order shipped this morning. Pumped!

Post **Posted:** Tue Nov 19, 2019 8:25 pm

saw some people got it early. anyone listen yet?

Post **Posted:** Tue Nov 19, 2019 9:59 pm

Patiently waiting for a rip while my shipping takes forever

Post **Posted:** Tue Nov 19, 2019 10:05 pm

they could have released a teaser song or somehting

Post **Posted:** Wed Nov 20, 2019 9:38 am

It could be because it's a live album. There was no prerelease single for Live at 9:30, was there?

Post **Posted:** Wed Nov 20, 2019 9:50 am

They put up Did you See the Words on soundcloud before 930 came out

Post **Posted:** Wed Nov 20, 2019 5:19 pm

Saw this in the domino newsletter this morning and didnt remember reading it before (sorry if this has already been said)

wrote:

The live versions of the songs that make up Ballet Slippers were recorded on tour in 2009, mixed by Ajay Saggar, edited by Noah Lennox (Panda Bear) and mastered by Dave Cooley at Elysian Masters.

Didn't realize Panda edited it, I kinda just assumed this was primarily a Geo archival project. Idk why I associate him with doing that...

Ah, good to know. Well in that case, that is disappointing that they haven't put up a song yet... though it'll be nice to get all of it at once too

Post **Posted:** Wed Nov 20, 2019 9:21 pm

Insane to me that Doggy, Hey Light and Leaf House aren't on this. But the Bleed, Lablakely/Fireworks, Banshee, Lion in a Coma inclusions ought to be sick.

The more I think about no Leaf House or OG Taste the more I'm like how do I apply for the fuckin manager's job of these guys? I would whip them the fuck into shape.

Yeah I guess it was a conscious choice to go post-MPP with this but I wonder why

Post **Posted:** Thu Nov 21, 2019 1:53 pm

07 was the best. I barely listened to anything after MPP came out because it's a bit samey. Funny that they have such strong affection but I guess it must be the most exciting period of success they ever had something like that. Creatively BANKRUPT ever since.
