Hey the kids!

You know when you heard about the special editions with their lovely lyric books that look all lovely and have lovely endnotes and lovely essays about CLEVER STUFFS and you thought: oh noes, bcux I iz living with my four grandparents in a small house and can only afford to have one lovely lyric book a year on my birfday and then I only readz one letter at a time to make it last longer? Well Charlie, YOU NOW HAVE A GOLDEN WAY TO MAKE YOUR DAY because you can now buy the lyric book on it’s own without spending all your cash on a sexy, amazing special edition (yeah).

It’s only eight quid and it’s here:

We’ve also added a nice ‘Savages’ comic design Journal to the Cafepress here, if you think that;s something you’d like.

Other news: look at this – it’s awesome people making David Koresh Superstar with us:

To Celebrate The Coming Of Our Ford

In the bleak midwinter, Frosty winds may blow

We’ve only a storage heater, so believe us we should know.

IT IS VERY NEARLY CHRIIIISTMAS, and thus time to huddle with your loved ones against the dying of the light and reflect on its true meaning. A special time when, once, a virgin went to where the ancestor of the dude she wasn’t sleeping with had possibly lived a thousand years previously in order to fill in a census form and – so bored by having to pick from ‘jew’ or ‘polytheist’ in the religion section – decided to have a miraculous sex-free baby (y’know, like Osiris) and start a religion after him for the lulz. What better time, in other words to indulge in consumerism and buy a bunch of awesome STUFF? Like this stuff, for example…

That’s right kids, we now, finally, have VINYL SFSL in stock. If you preordered it, then it’s in the post. If you didn’t because you didn’t trust us – then you can make it up to us by buying one now. You should, because we have to put the price up in the new year if we’re going to cover costs. Seriously, they are very pretty and come in a gorgeous Matte Finish, Gatefold sleeve with enough little details to gaze at that you can just look at them for hours – making them a worthwhile purchase even if you don’t have a record player. What’s more, this your last chance to buy the special edition with all kinds of bundled goodies for the preorder price of £60 w/out CD, £72 with.

Second, we sold a bunch in Germany – but we still have a decent number of Be Afraid Of Your Parents T-Shirts – they are nice and make good undergarments for keeping the cold out, we have discovered.

Third, you can now buy our poetry book ‘Words by…’ direct from lulu – if you missed it last year

Fourth, COMING SOON – we’ll be selling copies of the SFSL lyric book and ‘Antique Lace Under Musée Glass’ a poster and art book featuring concepts, photographs and the song-by-song posters from the back cover of the vinyl individually.

So you’ll have something to spend your christmas money on.

Also, watch out for NEWS v soon about David Koresh Superstar – which I swear is the best fucking album you haven’t heard in existence.

Merry Merry, and Happy Shopping

Finance and Other Trivialities: Special Editions???

Well here’s the thing:

It turns out that vinyl is quite expensive.

No doubt you knew that already, and we knew it too deep down – but we were still a little bit surprised when the quote came back from the vinyl people and it turned out that, having spent most of the money we made from SFSL on making David Koresh Superstar and basic subsistence, we couldn’t really afford to risk placing the order.

We’ve costed it all out and we reckon that, in order to produce a limited run of 250-300 LPs we need to sell at least 90 of them in advance, either on their own or as part of the special edition package that we’ll get to in a minute.

So if – as many of you have approached us to say that you do – you want vinyl you’re going to have to take a step into the world of trust based economics and work with us on something:

Basically, if you would like to buy Songs For Swinging Lovers on vinyl, we’re going to ask you to pre-order it now.

If we don’t get enough pre-orders by the end of September we will refund all money paid. If we get to 90, we’ll place the order with the pressing company and those who pre-order will get their signed copies (+ a link to a pre-order only bonus track) days after we do.

We appreciate that this is a big ask, but if we don’t do it this way, we can’t do it at all – it is, very literally, up to you.

So – if you’d like to place an order, you have several options, all available at:

http://corporaterecords.co.uk/Indelicates_Store/special.html

1. Signed Vinyl LP only – £18

+ link to pre-order only bonus track

2. Special Edition – £72 (£60 w/out CD)

price will increase to £80 after pre-order period

Includes:

Signed Vinyl LP

+ Pre-order only bonus track

+ CD copy

+ ‘Antique Lace Under Musee Glass’ – art/poster book

+ Lyric book

+ A signed, limited edition print of one of Julia’s photographs from the DDR radio building where the album was recorded

+ SFSL shrinky-dink necklace

+ A short length of the actual rope we used to hang ourselves on the cover

+ Fudge

Super Special Edition – £300

Includes:

The Complete Special Edition

+ Simon and Julia will come to anywhere you like (within the UK )on a date of your choosing, play the album for you, record it and then sign a legal document transferring all the rights in the recording to you, thereby creating a limited edition of one.

Obviously, if we fall short of the 90, but a few people are interested in the super special edition, then we’ll probably be able to proceed anyway. Also, the books will be available separately later in the year.

If you want to buy the special edition, but have already purchased the CD, then you can order the CD-less version for £60. This option will not be available after the pre-order period.

We don’t know if this will work, and we’re only vaguely sure of what we’re doing – but it’s been a bit of a year for that sort of thing, and heck if it ain’t gone kinda well so far. Thanks in Advance, and here’s that link again:
