The Sub Pop Singles Club: The Return of the Return of Khan

The Sub Pop Singles Club is back, all tan and rested after a shockingly long sabbatical. It is a somewhat louche, world-weary thing with its eye on your wallet. And, for a price, The Sub Pop Singles Club is ready and willing to satisfy you aurally in ways you never dreamed possible.

Without further pandering, here are the facts!

Fact 1!
This run of The Sub Pop Singles Club will run for 1 year only, before returning to its secret island vacation spot for eternity (or until we here at Sub Pop feel masochistic enough to take on coordinating this debacle again.)

Fact 2!
This year’s Sub Pop Singles Club will include records (of the 7” variety) with music from such artists as Om, Unnatural Helpers, Tyvek, Black Mountain, Black Lips, Arthur & Yu, Mika Miko, Blues Control, Notwist, plus some stuff we’re not yet at liberty to divulge. And they won’t come out in that particular order, necessarily.

Fact 3!
We will mail you 1 record per month, every month for an entire year beginning on August 15th with a fantastic pair of songs from Om.

Fact 4!
For shipments to North America, you will pay us $75 in exchange for receiving this monthly boon from us. If you live elsewhere, in places outside of North America, we will require $90 from you.

Fact 5!
We will be pressing 1,500 copies of each single and so the number of subscriptions available for sale will be correspondingly limited. When these subscriptions are gone, that’s it!

Fact 6!
In addition to the singles themselves, each subscriber will receive a coupon enabling the download of high-quality MP3s of each record. No need to worry about how you’ll jam that 7” into your disk drive, we’ve got all you technophiliacs with your new-fangled gadgets covered.

Fact 7!
Subscriptions will be limited to 5 per person.

So here’s your chance to join the throngs of assholes selling their collectibles on eBay for ridiculous sums! All you have to do is: SEND US YOUR MONEY!

PLEASE NOTE: The subscription is $90 USD for all customers outside North America. The extra charge will be added in the checkout process.

Also note: Sub Pop Singles Club is sold out, meaning there are no more subscriptions available.

Released: 2008-07-02 (subscription)

Singles Club.... I was excited and told others

then I was asked… “so it sounds like a cool dating site, who does it cater to?”
I responded with “all the random postal service chick fans looking for their own ben gibbard”

I wish i was more witty!

by DiscoDuckV2 @ 03 Jul 11:36

Wow, awesome.

Its a shame you don’t have any artists worth signing up for.

by Vicious Jaws @ 03 Jul 17:26

signed up today!

i was sold when i saw Om and Black Mountain.

by nightgoat @ 05 Jul 17:50

Most of the valuable stuff

From the last two Singles Clubs wasn’t valuable until much later, Vicious Jaws. Take a chance on us. Or don’t!

by Dean H @ 07 Jul 10:53

:) THANKS FOR V3

I’m in. My bet is that the subscriptions will sell out this week.
I also wager that every single will arrive late, with an apology. No worries SP, I’m forgiving and patient. :)

by tenoclockrunner @ 07 Jul 13:26

...Will it be like last time?

During the regin of SPSC 2.0 i always received 2 copies of the same record in the mail. Yes 2 white stripes, 2 bright eyes, death cab, etc. Will I be as lucky this time? ...hope so! lol

by And-E @ 07 Jul 15:19

Happy from Roma

I’m from Italy and from here, the old Europe, I’ve reached the privilege to own ALL the singles from the previous singles clubs (including Nirvana,obviously) using large amounts of passion and money.
So I am proud to enterprise this new adventure: it makes me feel YOUNGER!

by zonfman @ 08 Jul 15:43

Crap week turned around

Just reading this gave me a giant girl boner! Mmmm vinyl.

by thatlittlebroad @ 09 Jul 09:04

Nolan

I really, really want to sign up for The Singles Club, but I’m moving in the next month? What, oh what should I do? But seriously.

by Nolan Parker @ 10 Jul 11:50

nolan!

I tried to email you, Nolan. Email webmaster & I’ll write you back. Short answer: order it!!

by Stu @ 10 Jul 12:56

oh shit

sold out?

by inoki @ 30 Jul 15:14

Please to not be sold out?

Please?

by Big Fucking Gaywad @ 31 Jul 18:43

Moved and Ordered!

I have moved, to a hotel room… And still don’t know the address to my soon to be house. Shit son! But I did order it.

by Noly P. @ 05 Aug 23:02

mp3s

So the 7 inches are supposed to mail today—when will the mp3s be posted? Just curious, psyched for new Om and to hear the new drummer.

by Turkenstein @ 15 Aug 09:45

UK arrival date

Anyone know how long it’ll take to get to the UK per chance?

by wellsyuk @ 16 Aug 07:38

Shipped yet?

Anyone gotten their copy? Just wondering and worried….

by dewrunner11 @ 22 Aug 19:50

Wondering in California

I was just thinking the same thing…has it shipped yet? Or is it going to be like the old days (Hey loser. Wanna find some action?) where there wouldn’t be anything for a couple of months then 3 singles would arrive all at once?

by 00heyloserwannafindsomeaction6928 @ 23 Aug 01:30

curious

anyone get the first one yet? I havent.

by Bluecadet @ 24 Aug 00:40

Nothing here

Not that I’m anxious or excited to start getting them or anything…

by ARM @ 24 Aug 18:23

MY MAILMAN HATES ME

Everyday i’ve ran outside just as the mail comes before work to see if it has arrived yet and no dice

by jack_a_curtis @ 25 Aug 02:55

You're not alone

Haven’t gotten mine yet either. They should at least let us know so we stop running out to our mailboxes like idiots! (hint hint)

by stringbeanalex @ 25 Aug 13:40

Same Boat

Still no luck here in Chicago.

by nicknamedave @ 26 Aug 14:17

Not here yet either

Still no luck in KC, either.

by shankm @ 27 Aug 09:04

P.S.

Contacted customer service last week and was told they are “packing them” right now.

by shankm @ 27 Aug 09:05

lonely no more

Ooooo yeah, it’s finally here. Tasty mocha colored vinyl. Drony bass/drum trance stuff. A strong start for the series.

The sleeve doesn’t say anything about the Singles Club or the limited edition though. Damn it!

by in'n'outofgrace @ 27 Aug 13:05

Stupid timing...

Well, I blew it. I was in the middle of an international move when this came out, and by the time I got to it, it was sold out. Did anyone buy an extra subscription they feel like selling…?

by pette @ 27 Aug 15:40

PLEASANT PEASANTS

NYC Band…..

by The Real One @ 27 Aug 20:05

One down

Got my Om on yesterday!

by macchiaroni @ 29 Aug 04:00

It's here!

I’ll be spinning it tonight.

by shankm @ 29 Aug 08:02

Still waiting for mine...

I’m in Cincy… and am waiting impatiently.

by joerdie @ 29 Aug 16:19

No UK joy yet..

Still not arrived..

by wellsyuk @ 30 Aug 02:54

Please mark Don't Bend MF

Recieved the OM 45 today and the stupid Post Office bent it into my Post Office box. So I have a nice bent up sleeve and a slightly warped record. Could you mark the packages (or at least MINE) Fragile Do Not Bend. The Postal Clerks at my post office are dumb as dirt.

by GreggSubPop @ 30 Aug 09:45

god damn

still waiting

by jack_a_curtis @ 02 Sep 18:17

Nada

Nothing in this neck of the woods either… Although the Death Vessel CD I ordered a week after the Singles Club order had “shipped” against it turned up today :(

by Foz @ 04 Sep 11:09

anyone in canada get it yet?

wow, september 5 and still nothing. i’m getting depressed.

by roaacu @ 05 Sep 18:00

Anyone in Europe get it?

Waiting…waiting…waiting…hmm..nothing yet :(

by Hawkboy @ 07 Sep 04:43

Still waiting in UK

Mine’s yet to arrive….

by keith uk @ 08 Sep 14:30

Posted September 4?

Mine arrived in UKland this morning :)

According to Dulux, the vinyl colour is either Quilted Calico or Twisted Bamboo. One of the Warm Neutrals, anyway.

by Foz @ 09 Sep 05:59

what's going on here???

UK land sees it before Canada?

so what’s the deal with single #2, is that being shipped out next week?

by roaacu @ 09 Sep 19:07

Still nothing UK

I aint got nowt yet still

by wellsyuk @ 10 Sep 08:32

No Dice

Nothing here in Canada yet.

by Neilyoung @ 10 Sep 10:45

It has arrived!

It was in the mail today! Hurray! I’m in the Netherlands btw.

by Hawkboy @ 10 Sep 11:57

DICE

It finally came! Thanks guys! I live in Canada and it arrived at the same time as it did in the Netherlands! Haha. Can’t wait to spin it.

by Neilyoung @ 10 Sep 19:41

SHIZAM!

finally got the bad boy in the mail, so stoked on it

by jack_a_curtis @ 11 Sep 13:46

waiting in canada

I still haven’t received anything yet!! I’m getting very impatient!!

by Patches @ 14 Sep 18:45

WAITING IN ENGLAND

Still nothing, come on people how hard can it be

by wellsyuk @ 15 Sep 02:31

Received in Canada

I finally received the Om single today – Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Bit delayed, eh?

by mattsigal @ 15 Sep 15:29

Infinite apologies for the delay

Hey folks who haven’t yet received your first Singles Club single – sorry! There were a few things that needed ironing out in regards to the shipping of the first single in the series. Many of these thing were with international orders (which can already potentially take a long time to arrive due to unpredictable customs clearances). All of the orders have been sent out by this point and if you haven’t seen your 45 yet, you will any day now.

by Sam S. @ 15 Sep 17:08

received it today!

awesome single from om.

when do we get the second one?

by roaacu @ 16 Sep 20:20

at last, thanks

Now, about the second one approx date please?...

by wellsyuk @ 17 Sep 01:58

Unnatural[y] happy

the second installment came today, man am i ever going to be sad when this is done 10 months from now

by jack_a_curtis @ 18 Sep 17:21

Not like the old days at the Club

Holy mackerel, Single #2 has arrived already! A beautiful bile green single with a lyric sheet! Singles Club info on the sleeve! And it rocks on all 4, count ‘em, 4 tracks!

Looks like Sub Plop has turned over a new leaf. Time to go throw up.

by in'n'outofgrace @ 19 Sep 14:07

Still Waiting Kinda...

I just got the second single in the mail before the first. Really hoping the Om single comes soon, the Unnatural Helpers one is sounding good though.

by wishfordecay @ 22 Sep 15:16

Shocked!

Completely shocked to see the second installment in my mailbox already. Keep it up SP!

by Rob_Wynn @ 22 Sep 20:01

No fair!!

I’m still waiting for the Om record! Has everyone in the UK looking at this got theirs yet?

by keith uk @ 23 Sep 15:16

Just got the green one!

Wow, I’m impressed, the second one, Unnatural Helpers, sounds great!! Didn’t know that band but I’m going to check them out!!

by eternalangel @ 23 Sep 17:44

UK Still waiting

Still waiting for the Om as well, sure it will come soon.

by jimlad @ 25 Sep 05:27

skipped record

I just got the Unnatural Helpers 45, but have yet to receive the Om 45. I hope its in the mail!

by Patches @ 25 Sep 14:55

Unnatural Helpers in the UK!

The very cool looking Unnatural Helpers record arrived today, but still no Om. I reckon my postman’s on the rob.

by keith uk @ 26 Sep 06:58

Unnatural Helpers Hits UK, Still No Om

Same as Keith, may be UK posties love Om but didn’t want to but all 12!

by jimlad @ 26 Sep 08:20

Other Way round in this bit of the UK

Om arrived on Sept 9, but no Unnatural Helpers so far. If my postie is nicking stuff (and I suspect that he is), at least he’s having the grace to eventually drop them round after copying them.
Although I think that the only way to prove that he’s definitely on the rob though is to order a really angry ferret – if he turns up at the house a couple of weeks later with plasters all over his fingers, then he’s definitely at least having a good rummage. Or he’s Michael Jackson.

by Foz @ 29 Sep 12:57

no om in oz

Still waiting for my om record too. unnatural helpers arrived 2 weeks ago

by roly @ 05 Oct 20:09

HMM...

So is it just me now in the UK with no Unnatural Helpers single?

by Foz @ 06 Oct 09:53

hmm...

So is it just me now in the UK with no Unnatural Helpers single?

by Foz @ 06 Oct 09:53

yessir

get hip to the psychedelic jams of detroit’s Aquarius Void.

by unfortunate @ 08 Oct 17:55

The thong arm of the law

Anyone in the Dorset area who has yet to receive either Singles Club 7” so far, this might well be the reason:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/dorset/7676580.stm

Anyone in the Dorset area who ordered a thong off the internet and who has yet to receive it, you may not want it back now :D

by Foz @ 17 Oct 12:48

who's got the 10 1/2?

Mika Miko’s got the 10 1/2! Yeah, yeah, ooooooooo yeah!

by in'n'outofgrace @ 17 Oct 15:35

OM is still missing

usually all my sub pop orders arrive quickly – so did the 2nd single (unnatural helpers), but i’m still missing my om-single… what shall i do? (i’m living in switzerland)

by DerZensor @ 19 Oct 15:35

Anyone got the 4th

Anyone got the 4th one yet?

by wellsyuk @ 17 Nov 10:47

MP3 of Om

I’m guessing that the Om isn’t coming! For those of us that haven’t yet received it any chance of getting the MP3s at least?

by jimlad @ 21 Nov 05:34

Did anyone get the November installment?

Did this get sent out? I still haven’t gotten mine and tomorrow in 12/1/

by danfun @ 30 Nov 14:44

Dave

Just received the Black Mountain single. Never did receive an Om single. From Vancouver Canada.

by Flavour Dave @ 01 Dec 18:40

GeeWhiz

No way, Black mountain came and it was the one I missed? That was the main reason for my subscription. I moved and apparently missed a shipment. My Blues Control single came a few weeks ago. Any chance of getting the Black mountain still?

by geewhiz @ 08 Jan 21:20

future artists

apparently sub pop are keeping the last three artists a surprise, in fact from what i’ve been told, they don’t even know who they’ll be yet.

by Turkenstein @ 04 May 19:28

Yeah, April

So it’s not just me in ‘lil Old NZ missing it. Awesome (I guess)

by Enzed @ 04 May 21:05

by unfortunate @ 12 May 11:39

I'm nervous

Still no Black Lips at my place, and tons are up on eBay. Are any peeps still waiting for this?

by Turkenstein @ 13 May 14:27

May and June records? (UK)

Anyone else got these yet? Last one I got was Black Lips

by wellsyuk @ 15 Jun 12:47

Black was the last

yeah the last record i got was the Black Lips record, and i’m sad to see all the ones up on ebay, did they not tell us that they had our backs in this one? weak sauce

by jack_a_curtis @ 18 Jun 13:49

Has anyone gotten anything after the Black Lips?

I know they said that the release after the Black Lips was going to be delayed but tomorrow is July 1st and I still haven’t gotten anything after the Black Lips has anyone received anything else?
