My order was three Perhaps vinyls and 2 of the small die-cast 1:64 cars, and my shipping total (I'm in the US) was $32.98. Mine will be split into two shipments though, so it would probably be about $16 each. When I ordered Hard Skool, it came from Detroit, Michigan, which is only a few hours from where I'm at in west Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Amir Posted September 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2023 Pretty sure this to foment FOMO so people rush to buy the vinyl. I've been waiting for the song for 15 years but I'm not buying a record player just to listen to one song. It'll be available digitally at one point, sooner or later. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinfoil hat theory: it won't be streaming on the Perhaps single, but'll show up on a CD Leftovers comp/new digital EP down the road. The single doesn't have two tracks on streaming services, so it would have to be its own release one way or another. Really the only way I can get that to make sense in my mind. If that's going to be the case, but they're even mentioning the song name on their social now...so, yeah. I can't see it being an album only track. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoSoRose Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 It’ll just be on streaming when it comes out. It was only announced to promote the record. When it comes out, it’ll be out- out 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 If they were smarter, they'd announce the vinyl would ship before digital release, and when it got a bit closer to release, they'd make it a bandcamp exclusive for 2-3 days in the choose your price as 1 USD or more, then release it on streaming. At that point, anyone who would've preordered the vinyl, would've done it by then and anyone who's too nervous to wait, would've downloaded the song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be ripped and widely available for free online the moment the vinyls ship, so not releasing it digitally or on streaming means they're forgoing additional money and good publicity for no reason. It would make no sense. In other words, it seems there's a decent chance this rumor is true 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Matinator Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Seems ludicrous, but at the same time Nando hyping fans up on reddit about the General & it getting released to streaming only for it to end up being vinyl exclusive is pretty on brand.

I’m not sure I put much stock in it not being the case on the grounds of it “not making sense” considering the operation in question.

Yeah The General immediately pulls up GNR and Perhaps in all categories so hopefully that’s a good sign of an imminent digital release. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
