    Sorry, I'm going to snip the 'more' part off tomorrow.

    It's pressed on virgin vinyl with printed company sleeves and deluxe (printing on the inside) box, but all the goodies are already listed - namely the 32 page booklet (with photos and liners courtesy of band leader/guitarist Ricky Telfer) and embroidered Aliens patch.

    Not to push the hype, but these will soon be gone at the rate they're going.

    Lp and CD are not limited, so no sweat on those.

    ah, alright. I was thinking it might be that Psychedelic Aliens t-shirt.

    P.S. Whens that Marijata reissue coming out? Can't wait till that comes out.

    It would have been a little tight stuffing a t-shirt into the box, maybe I should have done some panties ('I've got a Psychedelic Alien in my pants!')

    The Marijata will be going to press in a couple of weeks.

    Wha?? I pre-ordered but didn't see anything about a t-shirt... just found it on some euro site though and it looks great!

    Horseleech: How can I get one of these thru the Academy site to add to my order?

    I put up 70 for pre-order and they went in less than two days.

    Some distros will be getting them, as will Dusty Groove, Honest Jon's, Superfly and a few others.

    Again, not to push the hype, but these are evaporating. The 12" and CD will be around, but if you want the box don't sleep.

    This will be the best place to get this from in Europe. I'd be willing to bet they'll have it at a nice price too.

    I've only sold 70 of the 500 on pre-order, so they will be available again at the end of the month, I'll update when I know the release date for sure, but I'm still shooting for 10/26.

    Well, there is a delay in getting the vinyl for these.

    Because Frank and I are insane, we wanted glossy labels to be as close to the OG as we could get so we had them custom made. It turns out they weren't adhering to the vinyl properly so now we may have to get new labels made.

    It looks like the first week of November now.

    That's too bad, but quality takes time I guess. Glad I pulled the trigger on this early enough to get one! Looking forward to it.

    The labels were a disaster, I had to get new ones made :shut:

    The new street date is 11/23 - Everyone who graciously ordered one on pre-order please take note.

    OK folks - The Aliens have landed.

    The boxes are here and they're amazing!

    We'll be shipping the pre-orders out starting tomorrow - THANK YOU to everyone who pre-ordered and have been so patient.

    We'll have more at our website on 11/23, but they'll go fast. The awesome Lp version w/ oversized book and deluxe casebook CD will also be for sale then.

    Again - THANK YOU to everyone who is interested and for indulging the commerce on these pages.
