It looks like some promotional material has started appearing in record shops in Japan today, which is really exciting to see.

Unfortunately my local record store didn’t receive anything, so I thought I’d ask here just in case: if anyone happens to have a spare promo item and would be willing to pass it on, I’d be incredibly grateful. Please send me a PM so we van work something out.

Either way, it’s amazing to see these things surfacing, the excitement is definitely building.

Thanks for posting! Very cool to see.

I’ll check some local shops and would be more than happy to grab a couple if allowed.

These booklets are massive… the deeper dark space in the bottom half of the composition opens up a new dimension to the cover art.

Checked two local stores. No luck…though one did say they would be doing a listening party on the 28th of May! It was written on a dry erase board behind the counter. When I asked the guy initially he said yes they would be having something. Then very quickly another guy covered the board and said, “You weren’t supposed to see that….you weren’t here…this didn’t happen.” Obviously in a playful way. So, I will probably keep checking in with them as it gets closer. Seems like something may be going on at some local shops…worth checking out. I won’t disclose the name of the
store. The worker DID ask me to not say anything.
I will say that store is on the local stockist that links from the BoC website from warp https://warp.net/stockists


Hope I can make it and hope they actually do it. Maybe they will have some Inferno SWAG.

This gave me a lot of hope. I asked the nearest store on the stockist and while they didn't know anything about a listening session or Inferno swag yet, this gives me hope that it'll happen for my store aswell.

HUZZAH!

For sure. I think it is at least worth checking in with them as it gets closer. They said they would update their Instagram as it got closer. So, if they have socials it may be worth keeping an eye out on those too.

I am also hoping that pre-orders from WARP will come with some stickers or some extras. If my memory serves me correct both TCH and TH came with stickers and a couple of extras.

I'm spending a few days in Tokyo from Saturday afternoon. Naturally the first thing I'll be doing is popping over to Shibuya and hoping that those posters are of a small enough size that they roll up into something that fits in my carry-on case.

Nice! Best of luck getting your hands on one!

Perfect, thanks. Looks like they'll fit in the case, now I just need to hope some are still in stock for Saturday!
