Bummer, emusic says that the album is not avialble for download in my country. That’s the USA! Hopefully this is just a timing issue, still trying to get it on emusic? I’ll keep checking back. If someone sees differently, please post.

Nathan:
Hell, in that case, at least do cd-rw, so people don’t have to wait months/years to burn the cd.

Is the “Executive Edition” with all it’s goodies available even though it’s after the “Buy Early, Get Now” promo? Thanks.

I was wondering if the New Pornographers album is going to be on emusic? I was hoping it would show up this week but it is not on there. Is matador not working with emusic anymore? I know that a few labels have dropped off but I really hope that matador will stay on there. thanks for your time.

I don’t get people. How could it have been any more clear that they were mailing cd-rs? Matador, don’t let some people who can’t read convince you not to do something like this in the future.

What. The. Sam. HELL?

You f’ing mailed us CD-R’s? BLANK CD-R’s?

I… I really can’t express how annoyed and irritated I am right now. On one paw, I got the package in today.

On the other, I feel like I was ripped out of ten bucks for getting the Executive edition. So now I have to wait months till all the songs are released so I can burn them to the disc?

And now I have to track down the confirmation email that I got when I bought this to find the damn uplink code.

I don’t see how they can give you a list, since the live stuff isn’t even recorded yet. It’s been stated that they’ll let you know when it’s all been posted.

So… let me see if I am straight on this… all the CDR material (Live Stuff, Bonus Tracks-Bsides-Outtakes, and Video’s/Photos) are not yet available… So far I only grabbed 2 B-Sides… Is there a possibility of emailing or posting a list that is supposed to go on each CD-R so we know what to hold out for?

By: Patrick

Patrick — Mon, 20 Aug 2007 18:37:45 +0000

Joann – yes, you will get all the bonus material over the course of the fall, including all the exclusives given elsewhere.

Rob, please email nick@matadorrecords.com copying me (patrick@matadorrecords.com) and we’ll iron out the glitch asap.

Hmm…just got the executive edition at a real live record store…and the uplink code doesn’t work. So what’s the deal? Am I retarded?

Hi Robert,

Yes, you should have them by then and maybe by tomorrow, if you are in the US. If you are elsewhere in the world, all orders went out the week before last, but it can be difficult to predict how long international shipments will take to reach their destinations.

(and remember! the bonus CDRs in the box are blank pre-printed CDRs and will not have music on them – we will be supplying that to you via the Buy Early Get Now site over the next few months, and you will be burning them to complete your set)
