Anyone in California received theirs yet? I pre-ordered from the UW store and haven’t heard anything about shipping yet.

Uh, yeah I got mine last week. You might want to start bothering people.
(How the fuck did I get mine so fast? I swear it took like three days)

Got mine Thursday.

Based on some posts I’ve seen, most US people received theirs Thu or Fri. Even I got mine yesterday.

If you go into your account on the store website and look at your order history, there should be a tracking number in your order detail. Plug that into UPS, and it should give you some information.

Thanks all. Seems there may have been a payment issue. Hopefully I haven’t missed out!

I love how this take expands on the sound of the original while bringing in the “Low Between Zebras” poetry. It also hearkens back to “song-in-parts” epics of STITI. The melodies capture the vibe of Mole Hill in a more complete way too. I have it starting my alt-universe “album” as well.

Yeah, I just really like its existence. Although the multi-part songs are possibly over-represented in fandom given how few there are (first two tracks on STITI, Skyscraper and Cups at a push), they do really feel very Underworldy, and I'd love them to do more in the future. Drift in general has much longer tracks than anything they've done since the '90s and that makes me happy. More of this please guys, play around with structures more!

I got 002 for my box set number. I wonder if that means they actually filled the orders in order this time, unlike Barbara Barbara. This time, I ordered literally while the new order bundles were still being created on the storefront. For Barbara Barbara, I ordered an hour before the announcement went out, but ended up with box set #81.

I absolutely agree, having so many discs to play with allows the boys so much opportunity to develop tracks and ideas. I'd still like a thirty-minute version of Dune, mind!

My boxset just arrived...#183, bless you, Rick and Karl!
As always, I prefer and appreciate the physical version.

PS. Still confused about the dog. Did I shame them into omitting him/her? Well, I kind of like the blank space now... you can fill it however the mood strikes. Certainly the most stark graphic design in the Underworld canon!
