    Please guys, order Caretaker albums on boomkat whenever you can. Prices on discogs are still unusually high even though this album has been in stock for a while now. Shipping may not be nice for people in the US but it’s better than getting it here

      Very flat and clean. A pleasant surprise given the international shipping.

        After the first 400 copies sold out, they repressed it and Boomkat re-stocked in November. Should this one still be limited edition and have a separate entry for the repress or just remove the "limited edition" tag? Apart from that, I assume both are physically identical.

          Finally this piece of art got repressed. Much love to boomkat.

            Nice pressing, very simple and clean, minimal packaging. Cool album.

              A repress is coming of this, so don't spend the ridiculous amounts people are asking for.
