That's like some Homestuck shit.

Rob has no one but himself to blame for all the silliness in the art style (as awesome as it is). Better than Mark Weaver anyway.

Is that how much the shipping is for you? Where to?

Has anyone pre-ordered to the UK and if so what's the hit for shipping?

I was just stating the difference between the digital and the vinyl....that was before I noticed that shipping was around another $11.

lol. I care far too much about this. Is it too much to ask for a little consistency, y'all

**eversonpoe** · 11-04-2012, 04:43 PM

shipping to chicago would have only been $10, and as much of a collector as i am, i couldn't justify spending the extra money on a 12" remix EP that i don't like at all. there are plenty of rare NIN items that i rarely listen to, but i don't dislike any of them (except maybe the capital G single). i got the $5 digital download and stuck with the $18.75 & free shipping from amazon...

**gorast** · 11-04-2012, 05:51 PM

Regarding the remix EP:

The tweet mentions that it's a white-label vinyl. Does that apply to just the label on the vinyl itself, or will the sleeve also be blank? I'm not well-versed in vinyl terminology, so help me out on this one.

**sheepdean** · 11-04-2012, 06:28 PM

I would assume it'll come in a sleeve showing KIT's artwork - white label often is a blank sleeve, but not always (as KIT's artwork has no artist name on it, it would fall under white label guidelines)

**gorast** · 11-04-2012, 08:27 PM

Bit the bullet for the EP from HTDA's site - that mention of the stock running out quickly scared me into buying now. I can make do with 33 dollars less, I suppose.

**Pilgrim** · 11-05-2012, 04:16 AM

Hello, does anybody knows if Amazon UK is already sold out or hasn't even started yet selling the new EP (vinyl)?

They have not had it for sale yet. I have been keeping an eye on it daily.

For the Dutch Mountains:
1 vinyl (+ promo) = $16
2 vinyls (+ promo) = $24.84
Same as domestic

**shagg_187** · 11-05-2012, 06:18 AM

You surprised ruiners, you!

**spahn** · 11-05-2012, 12:50 PM

and the vinyl has just sold out as posted by the HTDA twitter account.

**gorast** · 11-05-2012, 01:26 PM

Now I'm really glad I ordered last night.

I'm honestly pretty surprised that the vinyl sold out so quickly - either the promotional machine is working or the site had a really small allotment.

**witte** · 11-05-2012, 02:10 PM

Again, to be sure.
They confirmed (they told us earlier):
Tweeted: "Promo vinyl was only from us. All gone now."
If you buy at other stores, it's only the EP!

Meh. Personally I hated the remixes so nothing lost on my part. Would have kind of liked it for completion's sake but can't say I'm too fussed.

**Maul** · 11-05-2012, 02:48 PM

Shame there's no cd release of this one.I was hoping for that and I'm gutted since I have no vinyl player and I can't invest on one just to play this D:

**eversonpoe** · 11-05-2012, 02:49 PM

anyone else curious if "the loop closes" was inspired by Looper? i would guess not, given that the movie hasn't been out that long, and the songs were (supposedly) completed far earlier this year, but i can still dream...

**r_z** · 11-05-2012, 03:58 PM

Given they already named one of the songs after a stellar drawing from a spanish artist, naming another one after a hollywood-movie might have been just a bit too pretentious for my taste.

**NotoriousTIMP** · 11-05-2012, 03:59 PM

Damn it, the vinyl is sold out already? Even on Amazon?

**eversonpoe** · 11-05-2012, 04:11 PM

it is sold out through the band. still available elsewhere (but, obviously, without the bonus remix 12")

**NotoriousTIMP** · 11-05-2012, 05:36 PM

Ah, I didn't see the remix 12". Oh well...

I only buy the vinyl for completion's sake, and I don't intend on opening either one, honestly. As long as I can hear the music in some fashion (in this case via the digital download) then I'm fine with just owning sealed physical copies.

**somewhat_** · 11-06-2012, 08:33 AM

Track lengths have been listed on Amazon. I'm not sure we had known those before.

Also, this editorial review is on Amazon (may give insight on what the so called "stand-out" tracks are):

"2012 EP from this band featuring Nine Inch Nails mainman Trent Reznor plus his wife Mariqueen Maandig and Atticus Ross. An Omen is the follow-up to their self-titled debut EP. Six tracks including 'Keep It Together', 'On The Wing' and 'Speaking In Tongues'."

**snaapz** · 11-06-2012, 10:08 AM

I am really interested in "Speaking in tongues". I'm wondering if they will be "singing/chanting" is some foreign language or strange voice at some point in the song. Keep It Together has me belieiving that there is some mediumship going on here.

I've never purchased vinyl & don't own a player... I really wish that I owned one for the added value/experience.

I wish there was more teasing, other than the random photos being posted. Maybe some 2-10 second audio/video snippets or scavanger hunts.

I'll be vacationing in CUBA just after the release comes out... so... I'll have plenty of time to listen to the tracks over and over while soaking up some sun.

this is probably the first time i have really wanted to hear more samples before purchasing a trent related release. it's too bad, because of that i have missed out on the pre-order vinyl, but i'm just not ready to buy it i guess. i'll pay the 5 dollars for the download, but i am not sure yet if i want to pay for the vinyl...

**gorast** · 11-06-2012, 12:37 PM

Yes! More long songs! Perfect!

**Rdm** · 11-06-2012, 01:04 PM

Shit I missed the pre-order on their website. I just Pre ordered from amazon, saved me some money on the shipping. = /

**joplinpicasso** · 11-06-2012, 02:24 PM

Didn't pre-order, but I'm excited to hear! Also, I didn't know they were covering BATS ;]
