Update #4: In the Land Of Lost Monsters will be our third release!

Posted on January 17, 2011

Hey Kickstarter Pledgers + Followers,

I have some very exciting news about our next release. We are proud to announce that our third release will be the amazing EP by Gatsbys American Dream, In The Land Of Lost Monsters. Originally released in 2004 on LLR Recordings, the album has been described by the band and fans alike as a transitional release. "You don’t get from Ribbons and Sugar to Volcano without the EP in between." says guitarist Bobby Darling. The owner of LLR has been gracious enough to allow the rights for this pressing, and Gatsbys American Dream have given us full support to do so.

The profits from this release will also go on to benefit Water.Org.

These will be tentatively on 10" records, and will also include gatefold packaging.

I've also chosen some preliminary colors and quantities:

500 on opaque beige vinyl
300 on clear vinyl
200 on opaque lime green vinyl (Subscriber Exclusive Color)

We will not add pre-orders through the Kickstarter for this release. Currently, the only way to insure that you get this release is by subscribing. This is also the only way to get the rarest version of every release, each one limited to 200. We are doing this because we still need a lot of support to get these releases off the ground. Despite the amazing support we've receive, we still have a way to go. To the seven of you who are already subscribers, I thank you dearly. If you have a subscription, it will be basically all Gatsbys records. Get excited for your subscription to be filled up quickly. Spread the news!

      What happens to the rest of the "subscriber exclusive color" copies if they aren't all given out?

      Since we have nearly a full subscription lined up, I will probably bundle them up as if they were subscriptions, to keep them exclusive. They'll be sold at the same price as a subscription.
