Vinyl Fetish: Whirr / Anne - Split 2x7" Pre-order

Run For Cover Records just opened up pre-orders for a split release between two of the finer shoegazey bands in the States right now, both of whom are coming off strong full-length debuts. Each band does two brand new tracks. Limited to 500 total copies on 2x7" with a gatefold jacket and an etched d-side, 200 on white/black a-side/b-side split and 300 on white/black 2/3 split (not entirely what 2/3 split means, I guess it's not a half/half deal like a usual two color split?). Do it up.

Vinyl Fetish: Whirr (Whirl)- Distressor EP

Not sure how I missed that this reissue was happening. The original pressing of this Whirr EP (they were known as Whirl at the time) was fraught with issues. I know that a number of people who ordered it from the UK based label it was released on never received their records. I opted not to order it from them based on that fact, so I've been semi-actively looking for a copy at a reasonable price on Discogs for a year now. I go to the Discogs homepage today and voila! a reissue. Comes with all new artwork and two bonus demo tracks. 595 copies pressed, 325 on clear with splatter (ugh, I know, splatter vinyl is fucking lame) and 270 on green/white swirl, which is supposedly exclusive to the Graveface Record Club (also lame). Oh well, at least I'll be able to own one of my favorite EPs in recent memory on vinyl at last
