I don't work for PJ but if I did, I would have VMP pressing Dark Matter at their newish "audiophile-grade" Colorado facility, at discount price since they missed on getting their shit together in time for the Yield 25 vinyl.

The Smile's new album is pretty awesome if you're into that sort of thing.
Yeah it's something of a classic. Fuck Pearl Jam, no way it's gonna beat Wall of Eyes.

Are we basing this Tuesday release news on anything other than what some random knucklehead on the Pit said?

the "soon" on the twitter post also had a right handed arrow.

We know what that means 'round here...

this was my first thought. if this is the music they use to intro the album, bring it on. i'm sure it's gonna be heavier, but this also sounds like it could be awesome.

93.3 wmmr is fairly solid source of info. they are one of the last stations in the country to have dj's 24 hours a day. ed gave them a sit down interview, which i don't think he's done for anyone else in philly. the one dude on the morning show is in the fan club and i'm sure knows people who work for the band.

That's the Billy Corgan view of it. He's probably listening to The Smile and weeping bitter tears.

Feels to me of a similar ilk to the music before Corduroy properly starts on the album.
