What time will we get to hear the album? Midnight, tomorrow morning, tomorrow at noon, tomorrow at 1, what?

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 04.27.2009 02:18 PM

I just ordered online. When do I get my log-in code for the BEGN site?

Fuck, it says within 3 business days. I hope they email it today.

pantophobia 04.27.2009 02:21 PM

i could careless about hearing the mp3 by tomorrow as long as the code arrives by thursday to get the early presale for the listed shows

threelobed 04.27.2009 02:45 PM

FYI - if you go to the BEGN site and enter the email address with which you bought the record you will be emailed your access code. it doesn't appear that the BEGN site is actually letting anyone log in to the site quite yet though, which makes sense since they don't want to really do anything with it until the stream tomorrow...

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 04.27.2009 02:58 PM

What page do you do that on?

greenlight 04.27.2009 09:29 PM

it is 03:28 in the morning here. it is still not up on for a streaming. not that I would be waiting for it so desperately, but I'm off to work soon...yeah, hopefully later...it is 28th. today right?

Moshe, can you confirm this? if the BEGN deal is a double cd with one of the cds being the battery park gig i may have to place another order.

Moshe 04.28.2009 01:54 AM

i will try to find out with the matador dudes.

No they changed it, right after i ordered it. It says "CD" now and not "Double CD".
They got it wrong cuz it's a double LP but a single CD;
so nothing new here.

noisereductions 04.28.2009 07:12 AM

awe dammit! I really wanted Battery Park on CD as well!

auto-aim 04.28.2009 07:13 AM

just saw the UK one online.... £21 is a really bad deal. I feel like such a tool - just to stream it early. get an extra LP and to have oppertunity to spend more of my money early on gigs that'll probably be a shedload of hassle to get to. I hope it's worth it.

auto-aim 04.28.2009 07:14 AM

£24+ fuck me!

Why not get it from Matador directly? It's 32 USD incl. shipping to Europe, which works out to around 21.50 GBP. If you don't think that's very good value for a CD plus double LP....well, I don't know what to say.

auto-aim 04.28.2009 07:52 AM

yeah - i'm just not used to buying music that's so expensive. I don't normally get LPs either so i don't really have an idea of value on that part. i'm sure it'll be worth it - but is a little steep i think. Already bit the bullet .

thisisradioclash 04.28.2009 08:03 AM

Full album stream's up on the BEGN site - 'Anti-Orgasm' is pretty tight. It's the same media player as 'Sacred Trickster' and the Eternal mix - just hit the forward button if you want to advance to the other songs.

I dnt know if I'm gonna listen to the stream. I'm not sure I want to hear the album for the first time just sitting at my desk. I might hold off. But I doubt it.

blunderbuss 04.29.2009 11:12 PM

Wasn't there going to be some different European BEGN with different extras? Or was that a misunderstanding?

Piepi 04.30.2009 02:52 AM

Yes, they tried to make some kind of that, but it never happened

New Sonic Youth Album - Buy Early Get Now Offer!

The new Sonic Youth album, The Eternal, is not officially released until June 9, but thanks to Matador Records' "Buy Early Get Now" promotion, you not only get to hear the record as early as April 28, but you also will get a bonus limited live vinyl Sonic Youth LP (while supplies last), a limited-edition poster, plus exclusive MP3 outtakes and live tracks with your purchase! Here's how it works:
Come in to one of our stores and ask for a Sonic Youth Buy Early Get Now card. You purchase the CD or LP in advance and fill out the card which will include your unique code to download your bonus tracks from the website specified on the card. You take half of the card (don't lose it!) and wait for the goodies to roll in. Here's what you will get:
April 28 - Exclusive pre-release stream of The Eternal becomes available. First bonus MP3 download will also be available at this time.
May 12 - Second bonus MP3 download available
June 2 - Third bonus MP3 download available
June 9 - Official release date - bring your half of the Buy Early Get Now card into the store to get your copy of The Eternal, bonus live LP, and poster!
The CD version of The Eternal is priced at $19.99, the vinyl LP is $33.99.


So, since the first bonus mp3 was not available on the 28th, when will it come out? On May 12th? But that's the date for the 2nd bonus mp3. Anyway, I'm already fiending for the bonus mp3 tracks. The main Eternal songs are soooo 2 days ago!! I want to hear some new sonic youth :)

ok so i deffinetly want one but postage costs as much as the record itself..
what should i do??
is it worth 45 euros? man thats a lots of money for 2 records

Thin_icE 05.05.2009 05:31 AM

Does anybody know the deadline for the BEGN? Unfortunately I've had a currency shortcoming and I still haven't been able to preorder it :\

Bal 05.05.2009 06:58 AM

yeah id like to know that too
i deff want to have that double live lp but its just too damn fuckin expensive (w/shipping to hungary)

atsonicpark 05.05.2009 08:36 AM

After about 6 listens, I think every song on the Eternal is great. The second half of the album is SO MUCH better than the first half...

negative8ball 05.05.2009 09:38 AM

I pre-ordered at my local Record Store (an option if you have a local indie to save shipping) and they said they thought the pre-order was ending soonish... but, if I remember correctly, the Pavement pre-order was available until ALMOST the actual release date... you basically have until they run out of time on pressing the pre-order bonus LP... though with Pavement, they obviously pressed some extras (as it was available for Record Store Day).

Buy Early Get Now will be available until we run out of LPs. We'll make an announcement when that time comes. Also, the Pavement BEGN Live LP is an entirely different Live LP from the Record Store Day Exclusive (very similar covers though.)

greedrex 05.05.2009 10:40 AM

hey dOOdz, when will they ship this shit? On release date? Anybody has some INSIDE INFO?

DaveMartin 05.05.2009 11:30 AM

We're aiming on having everything shipped a bit before street date so that it shows up before or on June 9th.

greedrex 05.05.2009 11:36 AM

^clever!
mysterious!

so, no buy early get late this time?
he he

thx for the prompt answer.
Pretty handy to have the bunch of you creeping around this forum ha ha
