Just got my single and album from What Records yesterday (ship date was 4/14). All arrived intact and in good order, although the CD
was unwrapped, which I thought odd.
 
If anyone is still wondering how the band generate revenue short of Youth loaning them all a daily fiver: the single contains
exactly one unique tune ("Penny Drops"). This cardboard-sleeve single cost me $8.50US, plus another $4US for shipping.
 
In all, I paid app. $13US for one song. I don't even want to think about what that one song cost the people who also bought the
vinyl.
 
At least "New Uprising" will only set me back a dollar, assuming they get their digital distribution issues resolved.
 
I can't even say it without laughing...

At least it's not quite as bad as Jimmy Page's shipping system.  I got his numbered "Lucifer" album (about $70 all said and done)
from the UK to US shipped in a flattened, beat to shit cardboard box:
