What happened to LUSH?

I bought one yesterday at a slightly higher price but I want this badly. Really hope it arrives soon.

Is "500" from the LP different from "500 (Shake Baby Shake)" from the single?

I believe so. Or they should be, anyway.

I had two TMC boxsets - the 1993 long-box version with the fourth disc of originals, and that 2011 remaster with the "Dust & Guitars" rarities disc. I sold the latter (after ripping it - though God knows where those WAVs ended up, they're not on any hard drive), and for a lot less than $150 :( I've still got the former.

box set sold out supposedly.

Amazon still has copies, better be quick though if you want one.

This makes me lack confidence in Amazon USA's release date on January 22nd.

whereas I decided not to wait for a relative to buy me one for my birthday and preordered

good idea. it's cheaper to order it directly from the UK anyway, turns out.

Looks like ilxors have snapped up all the remaining copies on Amazon UK following my tip-off. Says there'll be more in stock on Dec 20, but I wouldn't trust that.

blimey. glad i ordered mine when i did.
4ad love their (very) limited run boxsets.

Mine was dispatched recently, I was getting worried but I hope it will arrive soon.

I originally ordered through the Lush Sandbag store, payment was taken via Paypal but order was never processed. I'm glad I followed it up now or I'd be sitting waiting for something that'd never arrive! When they refunded me I ordered it from Norman Records instead and it is on its way.

I ordered mine from the sandbag store the day it went on sale and got it yesterday. Couldn't be happier with it!

You wanna know what happened to Lush?

Do you really wanna know?

Well,

I never stopped loving Lush completely.

That's what happened to them.

Back in stock at 4ad.com today, apparently.

So glad I got mine. Very nice package but I'd really prefer a regular box set with a big booklet that they could easier produce more of, so everyone could get it.

Are they going to reissue the albums individually? Do they sound different? Remastering 90s music sounds... dangerous

I've not done any comparisons but they don't sound particularly remastered to me.

it's times like now that I really hate the stranglehold Vice seems to have on stories about things I'm interested in

It may be my browser, but the last video on that page isn't displaying any titles/links to youtube or anything, but it's the new one, right? (The Ladykillers video didn't have any data either)

doh just looked upthread about 8 posts

there were some garbage challops on lush and shoegaze on Singles Jukebox last week

holy shit, you weren't kidding

Singles Jukebox isn't exactly a hotbed of shoegaze opinions.

Is it?

OMG Dan Perry so OTM

hotbed of the very hottest takes and 3 person comment slams

it's times like now that I really hate the stranglehold Vice seems to have on stories about things I'm interested in

tbf i-D was publishing monthly for 32 years before Vice bought them

True, but I still don't read links associated with Vice

Lush are playing a warm up show in Hackney April 11th btw

Ticket link?
