Remember back in 1988 when Sub Pop started their successful Record Singles Club? Neither do I! But I do know that Thrill Jockey are starting a 12-inch record subscription club, which includes seven limited-edition records guaranteed exclusively to mail-order customers.
So what Thrill Jockey bands are included in this whole deal? According to the label, package #1 ships later this month and includes Pit Er Pat’s High Time Remixes [The Fiery Furnaces' The End Is Near 12-inch] (now replacing Pat since the first wave of subscriptions sold out immediately) and Tortoise’s Beacons of Ancestorship Remixes. Package #2 ships in October and includes Thank You’s Pathetic Magic EP, Pontiak’s Sea Voids EP, and White Hills’ Dead EP. Package #3 will ship in November and includes as-of-yet unnamed EPs from Javelin and Mi Ami. The best part? Every subscriber gets a free Thrill Jockey record tote bag! Sweet, dude!
For more information, check out the Thrill Jockey page and find out how to join. The subscription is $84 in the U.S., $98 in Canada, or $122 for Europe or Japan.
