I got the e-mail about pre-orders and tour dates. I'm so excited!!! :cheesy:
http://mymorningjacket.shopfirebrand.com/ (http://mymorningjacket.shopfirebrand.com/)
Which pre-ordrer are you guys going for? I am leaning towards the deluxe vinyl package for $89. I like the biggest package but don't really need a shirt/flag and it'll be nice to save a few bucks.
I imagine most will be picking up the bigger packages. They look great! And a puzzle of the album cover? That's an awesome idea.
Okay so I opted for the Limited Deluxe and the Deluxe cd. I don't need another t shirt and the wall hanging looks real cool but I figured I would get the cd instead for around the same money as the Deluxe Bundle, hopefully for that bonus track! :cheesy:
Pulled the trigger on the limited deluxe straight away. The die-cut box looks awesome, and I'm all about that 45. Don't care about a shirt or wall flag but it's awesome they offered it all in one set.

Yea, I'm glad the 7" comes in both limited packages. Otherwise that would have put me over the edge for the more expensive one if it was only included there.
$120 vinyl packages, DELUXE Roll Call...they trying to kill my bank account.
Loving the puzzle idea!
Do these sell out? Like if I wait a week or two to buy the vinyl bundle, will it still be there (do they have a limited amount or is it based on orders?) I have to hold off so I can buy my show tickets first.
probably just the standard vinyl.
Would love the 45 but don't need/want the other stuff

I'm with you. I could care less about the puzzle or a die-cut box that seems like it would easily get damaged. So basically I would have to pay $65 for the 45.

Same boat, not to mention all of my cash will be going to the multi-night runs. I'll opt for the standard vinyl.
so when looking at the CD bundle, it has deluxe CD which has an extra song on it that doesnt come with the vinyl bundles? the song is called Silence.
So if you get any vinyl bundle, it says "The new album The Waterfall on 180 gram, double gate-fold vinyl with included download code."....does the download code mean a digital download of the album?
sorry for the random questions

Yep, plus the 4 b-sides for download too.
I'm operating under the assumption that Silence is just that - a track of silence, to separate the album proper from the bonus tracks on the CD. It's not on Itunes, and also isn't on the vinyl - the vinyl being just the 10 song album with a download card for the 4 bonus tracks.
Of course, if anyone hears otherwise, please let me know, as I'm certainly interested in an additional track if that's an option.

Is the only difference between the Limited Boxset Bundle and the $89 boxset the t-shirt and flag?
Could not resist so it was the deluxe for me :-)
Standard vinyl here! When Circuital came out, I went with the deluxe bundle for the colored vinyl. I think I'll wait to get the vinyl from the local record shop or Amazon. The $15 shipping is ridiculous. :tongue:

From what I could tell, yea. But I just did a quick glance so I may have missed something. I think the $89 package comes with puzzle and 7" so that's what I'm going for.
I want that 7" but like many others am not willing to buy the other riff raff just to get it. I'm sure i'll be able to pick it up later somehow.
Going to head down to my local record store and pre order the vinyl through them tomorrow!
yeah, that shipping charge is no friend of mine. I'll buy it at a local shop when it comes out.
I plan to support my local record store.

Found this cool article at Amazon:
My Morning Jacket arrived at Northern California's Stinson Beach in late 2013 thinking only about making an album. The band was not prepared to be seduced.
But within a couple of days, Jim James, Tom Blankenship, Patrick Hallahan, Carl Broemel and Bo Koster were in love with Panoramic House, a studio perched on a hillside overlooking the ocean. The natural beauty of the surrounding landscape and almost mystical serenity flooded them with a charged sense of possibilities.
"For me, every record has the spirit of where we made it," said James, singer, guitarist and primary songwriter. "Stinson Beach was so psychedelic and focused. It was almost like we lived on our own little moon out there. It feels like you're up in the sky."
"The story of the record really starts there," said Blankenship, a founding member of the Louisville-based band.
Throughout its 16 years, My Morning Jacket has always had a healthy respect for living in the moment and the inherent mysteries of creativity. They gladly took the inspiration that Stinson Beach was offering and crafted a sparkling new album, "The Waterfall," that touches on aspects of the band's celebrated past while pushing forward with a giddy assurance.
There are moments that reach back to early albums such as 2001's "At Dawn" and 2003's "It Still Moves," the record that gave the band a much broader audience. But the experimentation that marked 2004's "Z," 2008's "Evil Urges" and James' 2013 solo album, "Regions of Light and Sound of God" is clearly in effect.
"The Waterfall" sounds like history and decades colliding, like a record made by fervent music fans in search of that tingle up the spine. Inveterate music geeks will hear echoes of vintage rock and pop as MMJ continues to honor its influences without aping any of them; "The Waterfall" sounds like nothing else but also warmly familiar.
Notions of change crop up throughout the album, as does James' longstanding exploration of spirituality. But there's a crucial difference: On "The Waterfall," there are fewer questions and more action. Spirituality has become grounded and made real. "I feel like I still don't know how to explain anything," James said, "but I feel like I've accepted that and I'm just trying to live."
James began the sessions with nearly 30 songs and kept writing. The elevating "Believe (Nobody Knows)" opens the album with a summating blast of faith and acceptance but was the last song written.
"We did a ton of songs, so at the beginning there was no intention or focus," James said. "It was like, let's just go play these songs and figure out which ones fit. Once we did 'Believe,' that kind of tied the record together.
"What fused this record is, I feel like it's a weird turning point for the universe. I feel like so many people I know are getting divorced or having kids. There's so much change going on and I feel like, for me, that one chapter has ended. And if you're looking at a book, there's a hand flipping the page up and it's in between the chapter you just finished and the one that's getting ready to start.
"That's kind of the sound of this record, and my life, the sound of the page turning and not being sure what's coming next."
My Morning Jacket arrived in California after an unusually long time apart. Following a lengthy tour behind 2011's acclaimed "Circuital," band members scattered. James recorded and toured behind his 2013 solo album, "Regions of Light and Sound of God," while Hallahan recorded "Sound of Nowhere" with Spanish Gold.
Blankenship got married and moved to Nashville, and there were dozens of other projects, recording sessions, and marathon record nights in the wilds of Louisville, where James and Hallahan still live. Always a group of friends first, the reunion at Stinson Beach was the ideal combination of intense work and potent fun.
"It's sort of the perfect situation for us to go to an isolated place, with some limitations and not many distractions," Broemel said. "That's how we work best. We kind of get on the same wavelength of happiness."
"The freedom we went into this record with took a lot of the pressure off, as far as what to do and how to do it," Hallahan added. "The mantra was anything goes, no stone unturned, it'll be done when it's done. And it's not easy to pull that off with other people's schedules. I mean, poor Tucker."
That would be Tucker Martine, the Seattle-based producer and engineer who also worked with My Morning Jacket on "Circuital." The band has never used the same producer twice since its first two self-produced albums, but Martine and assistant engineer Kevin Ratterman have become integral parts of the team.
Martine oversaw two sessions in California, one at his home studio and one at Ratterman's La La Land studio in Louisville. This all stretched out over 18 months, the longest period that the band has worked on an album.
But in the end, it all circled back to Stinson Beach
"Out of all the places we've recorded, I think that place might have informed the record on a spiritual level more than any other," Koster said. "If you listen to 'Like A River,' it just sounds like Stinson Beach."

Well damn that was exciting..........real cool to see the bond these guys have and I love the ability to go off and do their own things and when they get back together it's like they never left.

That writeup was awesome, thanks for posting searchingbig!
I definitely am going with the standard vinyl. I am not paying over $60 more for a puzzle, a chunky box and a 7" of two tracks that are included via download anyway. Not knockin' anyone who does order the deluxe by any means, I'd just rather use those savings on some shows.
Also, when I ordered the Circuital deluxe box (which came with a DVD that was awesome and I would have ordered Waterfall deluxe if some video content was included) the colored records came seriously warped and I had to get them replaced. Not saying that's gonna happen again, but I'm in a "keep it simple" phase of record collecting right now. HAVING SAID THAT, the functional 45rpm cut of Circuital that was eventually provided to me sounds SO FUCKING KICK ASS and next to Okonokos and an original ISM, it's the best sounding MMJ record I have.
Another highly informative post brought to you by oistheone.

This. I love this band but I can't help but feel like the cost of the deluxe package is a tad exploitative. I can't justify the $65 up charge for a puzzle, a 7 inch and some fancy corrugate. This sort of thing is a disturbing trend of late for a lot of bands with dedicated fan bases, put out a standard edition and then a cash grab deluxe for the fans who can't bear to not have it.
I was pretty excited for the limited package but now you guys have me questioning it.
The 7" is definitely the main thing that's drawing me to it. I also love the puzzle idea and like having little keepsakes like that for a souvenir/memory but I'd probably only put it together once and then pack it up somewhere with other album mementos.
But yea, the high price + shipping (something I always forget to factor in) makes me less excited. I think the fancy jacket is neat but I was assuming it would be a "box" like the Circuital one. Seeing it as just a jacket like that is still cool but has me more hesitant.
I'll decide soon. I really want the 7" vinyl for my collection though....so that will likely sway me haha.

Oh want it. I really want it too. It's a crisis of conscience for me, I want this and I want it bad but I can't shake the feeling that's it's a bit of extortion. If we all say "you know what that puzzle and that flag and those coasters, that's totally worth an incremental $60" where does it end?
I'm emboldened by my hold out on the Thom Yorke "Tomorrow's Modern Boxes" $50 single LP in a plastic bag release. I love Radiohead even more than MMJ but $50 for a single LP is price gouging plain and simple. This deluxe edition may be a bit more nuanced but it's a gouge none the less.

Oh for sure. I definitely feel you on the "crisis of conscience" thing. I would hope there would be something a little more unique or special included. One of my favorite purchases that cost a pretty penny but didn't necessarily feel like gouging was when I pre-ordered a Delta Spirit album and the deluxe package came with a piano key from the piano they used to record/write the songs on. The key was signed by all members of the band and I love having this unique little artifact. But that was something that felt worth the money.
Another one that seemed awesome (but I couldn't afford at the time) was when Deer Tick had disposable cameras in the deluxe package of an album. Each disposable camera was loaded with photos that the band took while on tour and nobody would know exactly what photos you would get until you took it in and had the film developed.
A puzzle, fancy packaging, and 7" vinyl isn't super creative (though I do still love the inclusion of a puzzle) but definitely pulls on my fandom strings to want it. I am such a sucker for "limited" and unique releases even though it won't really help me enjoy the album any more than I do haha.
If only they had a Vinyl + 7" option. Or sold the 7" separately. That's the big draw for me.

Jim's solo tour was mostly in Spring 2013, Americanarama was in Summer, they arrived in Calif in October 2013. Doesn't seem unusually long. I guess they mean long since being in the studio together?
And Patrick's record is
South of Nowhere - but the bottom of article says "This biography was provided by the artist or their representative." :huh:
I can understand some fans being hesitant about the deluxe version. That being said, it was an automatic buy for me, and toss in the shrit and flag.
I have become more scrupulous with limited editions lately, but prudence and thriftiness can take a hike when it comes to my monetary decision for MMJ.
Can not wait for this thing to DROP!!!!!

This part of the write-up/review sounds fantastic and gives me hope that I will absolutely love this new album. I think I'll be getting the Deluxe Edition like I did for Circuital...no regrets on that purchase.
That quote is music to my ears. Also, love the quote about the band "getting on the same wavelength of happiness" from Carl.
For me this has always felt like it would be a huge turning point for the band, simply because it felt like they had left everything "out on the field" with their last chapter of toours. How could they possibly improve upon what they had been doing? Their only choice was to start anew. Well.. I mean there are probably lots of bands out there that would call it a day creatively and live off their early efforts for the next twenty years until they found themselves on the county fair circuit. But i dont think Jim will ever be satisfied resting on his laurels for too long.
As Jacket fans, i feel as though we are on the verge of the new good ol' days. Actually, we are one step past the verge. The wheels have already been put in motion, we're moving, we just cant fully appreciate it all quite yet.
All I really want is that gosh darn 7" and it's going to cost me $65.

I can't believe they have been around for 16 years. It seems like yesterday that I bought at Dawn in 2001 because someone said Jim sounded like Neil young. I haven't looked back since.
What a bunch of badasses.
I just paid 40$ to pre-order a standard vinyl because shipping is SO FUCKING HIGH. Who the fuck is making the decision to charge that much?

The vinyl is $24 on Amazon and free shipping for Prime members.

You can respond to your confirmation email from mmj-service@gnarlyemail.com and ask them to cancel your order. I did the same thing when I decided to pick up the deluxe CD after already ordering the smaller vinyl box set. I got my order canceled and refund within 24 hours.
Amazon had the deluxe CD for less and free shipping, as I have Prime.
I went with the Deluxe CD Bundle. I don't have a turntable, and I'm really not a puzzle person. So, I'm happy with what I'll be getting. :thumbsup:
Deluxe all the way. Need flag for Flag Day its a really starting to gain some traction on the holiday front.

Thanks JYAC,
I'm gonna go the same route. After dropping hundreds to see them on tour, I will just get a simple vinyl through amazon and a deluxe CD through itunes and pay half as much. I'll replace the flag/tshirt with some nice posters from the tour
Agreed
I would love to purchase direct through here but the shipping is ridiculous
I'll get it via Amazon and probably iTunes as well, assuming the vinyl won't come with download link for the extra tracks
Don't forget about your local record stores. They need your support.

I'm not sure if this is known, but I was reading The Waterfall vinyl is the higher quality 45rpm!
Buy the boys a steak dinner, they deserve it, I went with the Vinyl box set bundle.

Where did you see this about the record being 45rpm? Very intrigued! The Circuital version cut at 45rpm smokes!
Wonder if all editions will be cut at 45rpm or only some of 'em...
Soundstage Direct preorders has it written as 45rpm, usually they are correct. Circuital is 45rpm as well.
Hot damn! That's great news! Nice find!
Sweet!
There were selling signed Circuital at shows back when Circuital just came out. I'm hoping to pick that up this upcoming tour.
If it's true that it is 45rpm this is very good news. Should be killer sound like the Circuital pressing.
I'll never forget getting the Circuital vinyl a few days before the official release date and throwing it immediately on the platter at 33 rpm. Needless to say it didn't sound quite right until I figured things out.
Nice little stop-motion unboxing video for the deluxe vinyl set/puzzle:

Man, the old school Capitol labels on the vinyl look sooooooo badass.
So many legends had their albums pressed with those labels! The Beatles! The Band! Peter Tosh!!!!

Here's a short story on the band and the making of the new album from The Washington Post earlier today (April 16, 2015).

Thanks, bmc! I did this in 2011 for Circuital. In 2008, Newbury Comics had a MMJ pint glass with purchase of Evil Urges CDs.

Yes, same here. I did this for Circuital too, but sadly missed the pint glass for EU.
Thanks bmc. :beer:
Does anyone know if you buy the album in a record store it will include the download code for the 4 b-sides?

Thank you! My poison is now picked and preordered. I also picked up a signed Tame Impala Lonerism while I was at it. I would not have known about that or the signed Waterfall so double thanks. And great Jeff Bebe reference in another thread about the D.C. free show.

Ha! Thanks. And you guys are very welcome. I actually saw that Newbury was offering the autographed booklet because somebody mentioned it on the Pearl Jam forums. That person deserves the credit. :beer:
Question about the preorders: I ordered the vinyl deluxe whenever it came out a month or so ago. I didn't preorder Circuital so was wondering if we get our shipment on or prior to the release date from past experience? I haven't listened to the album yet so obviously don't want to have to wait a couple days for it to show up...

I pre-ordered Circuital and got it a few days before the release date. Had to discover myself that it was 45 rpm, quite a surprise.
I preordered from here, and the shipping is 2-day Priority Mail. Im hoping that itll be shipped at least 2 days before the release day.

Does anyone have a picture of this yet?
I would like one but am on the fence until I see it.
I think they did the Circuital ones which I thought looked nice, but I also ordered a Regions of Light from them and was disappointed in the outcome. I tried emailing them for a picture but they said they don't have one. Not sure why.

Preordered from Newbury and got this in today!
Very nice piece and a steal of a price in my opinion!
