My Morning Jacket - Circuital Deluxe Ltd. Green Vinyl Recall - ATO Issues Statement

Note: At the request of ATO records, I promised not to comment on this situation until the label and band had a chance to issue an official statement. I agreed.

So, if you were one of the many folks who purchased the Circuital Deluxe Vinyl Box Set, you've probably noticed by now that your limited edition green vinyl is virtually unplayable due to severe warpage of one or both of the vinyl discs. If they aren’t, consider yourself lucky.

When I first received my box set, I eagerly placed the first disc on the turntable and let it spin. And boy was I startled by the loud, abrasive noise that followed when my stylus was launched from the groove and sent bouncing across the first track. After snapping my head round to see wtf, I immediately noticed the severe warpage and instantly lifted the needle from the record.

So then I placed the second disc on the turntable and, sadly, discovered it, too, had the same defect. I was aghast. All other items in the box were as perfect as the day they were made so, I assumed this was all due to a manufacturing flaw or exposure to extreme heat somewhere along the supply chain.

My Morning Jacket to release exclusive single for Record Store Day - KY ONLY!

Via CoS...

Although Circuital won’t hit shelves for another two months, My Morning Jacket is giving fans from Kentucky a reason to celebrate the band’s home state. According to You Ain’t No Picasso, the Louisville natives will mark this year’s Record Store Day (April 16th) by releasing a 12″ single to a handful of Kentucky record stores — two to be exact. Featuring the title track off the band’s forthcoming album, the white-label, one-track single will be limited to 600 copies and is set for release at Lexington’s CD Central and Louisville’s Ear X-Tacy.

For those of us not in Kentucky, My Morning Jacket will also be reissuing three studio albums for Record Store Day. The band’s three most recent releases — 2003′s It Still Moves, 2005′s Z, and 2008′s Evil Urges — will be re-released on 2×12″ picture discs. While each release will be limited to 500 copies, they will be distributed to record stores across the country.
