You could pout at Fader and Southern Comfort for releasing a mere 500 copies of the records in its special 7" vinyl series, or you could accept that’s how "limited edition" works, and bust ass to get a piece. Here are some tips to getting your hands on the magazine’s newest, featuring unreleased tracks by Black Lips and YACHT (see cover art above).
"The records will be created and distributed to top DJs, artists and influencers."
What are you doing with your life? Do you love tight spaces and expensive headphones? Be a DJ! Are you sad? Probably because you haven’t been honing your craft. Be an artist! And we guess they’re giving the rest to kindergarten teachers and football coaches, because those people mold young minds for tomorrow.
Or, you could try and try to "win exclusive recordings online at thefader.com.” This might be your best bet, unless you have cooler friends.
The A-Side features a Black Lips cover of The Tamrons’ "Wild Man" and the B-Side a YACHT tune called "No Favors Policy." It is a distinct type of rarity falling somewhere between upside-down airplane stamp and rocket-firing Bobba Fett action figure.
