I live in the UK and would like to pre-order Teeth Dreams on vinyl.
I'm confused, however!
From the information I have, the US vinyl is 2xLP whereas the UK vinyl is 1xLP.
Being in the UK, my options seem to be:
a) Amazon.co.uk - £12.99 for 1xLP black vinyl b) The Hold Steady UK/Europe store - £33.00 for 1xLP gold vinyl (plus T-shirt)
What I would really like is the 2xLP version, but does anyone know anywhere I can buy it without having to pay large shipping costs from the US? Can anyone clarify all of this? Thanks :~)

This has confused me too.
The gold vinyl version clearly states '1000 copies only'. It says that on the US site too, so, the gold one must be double. Unless they pressed 500 1xLP and 500 2xLP but that would be extremely misleading and wrong.
So I'm quite confident the gold is a double, but I can only assume the black edition is 2LP for USA, and 1LP for everywhere else?
What I'm trying to say is, I don't have an effing clue. I just hope everyone gets what they want and all the bonus tracks too.

Thanks guys. Well, I guess I'll stick with the digital versions of Teeth Dreams until after the release date so that I can work out what the vinyl options are.

I really don't believe there is actually a 1xLP version.

I got an email today that my pre-order has shipped. Looking at the email, however, I saw I mistyped my address when I ordered. So my vinyl will be delayed a bit.

If I had an extra £27 I'd buy another just to keep sealed. The gold one must be pretty special to cost £8 more than black.

... Then again, no clues to whether it's a 2LP?

It's driving me crazy that shit hasn't shipped yet. I thought it'd go out on 3/18! I'm the most impatient person ever

Are there three different vinyl versions?
* Theres obviously the double gold version * Amazon.com lists a 2LP version on black vinyl ($28) * Amazon.co.uk has a slightly cheapher version (£13), which seems to be one disc only
Confused. And feel an irrational need to own them all.

My gold vinyl got delivered on Saturday. It's a double LP and it has Saddle Shoe in there. Maybe if the black version's a single LP it might not include Saddle Shoe.

Hey guys, can anyone actually confirm the existence of a 1xLP version?

Hey guys, can anyone actually confirm the existence of a 1xLP version? I don't think there is one. I bought a "regular" vinyl in a norwegian store on friday, it was double. I guess I can confirm when my Amazon.co.uk shipment arrives. I ordered the cheapest one, and if that's not 1LP, I guess there's just 2LP versions produced.

Tracking suggests my vinyl copy will only arrive on the 27th. I'm still waiting and not listening to the whole album before then.

If the £12.99 Amazon.co.uk product is 2xLP, then I very much doubt that a 1xLP actually exists. Let us know what you receive :¬)

I emailed MerchNow yesterday because I hadn't received my preordered vinyl yet, nor had I received any sort of shipping notification, and received this response:
"Hello, We apologize for the delay, we are currently waiting to receive THE HOLD STEADY’S TEETH DREAM LP. We have been told they are on the way and we will be shipping as soon as they arrive. We are very sorry for the inconvenience and we will get them to you as soon as possible! Thank you for your patience."
Harumph.

I just picked up a black double LP from the record store, and I don't see a download card at all - anyone else having this problem? I'm not sure who to contact since I just picked it up in a store.

Hey guys, can anyone actually confirm the existence of a 1xLP version? BUMP... Amazon UK describes the vinyl it's selling as 1xLP. Are its product details wrong? Anyone order from Amazon UK?

Got mine Amazon copy today. It's double, even though the page says it's 1LP. And it's got Saddle Shoes on it as well. Just the same as the gold vinyl, expect the colour on records/sleeve.

HMV selling the double gold vinyl for £12.99, but these are obviously faulty - see other threads. Waiting to see if these get repressed.
