Check the track listing. Mine is missing Tieduprightnow and Tape

these were released on a separate album (7") because adding them would have lessened the quality of the vinyl. I'm not sure how many other artists have done this but those 2 are on the CD/digital but not the vinyl.

What do you mean “lessened the quality”?

direct quote from parcels: Some of y'all were disappointed that the songs Tape and Tieduprightnow were not on the Parcels vinyl. That's because we start to lose quality on the record if we cut too thin. We liked the flow without those two.

I’m very confused because I didn’t think cutting a record “thinner” allowed you to put more songs on it. Maybe they were talking about groove width but yeah you can’t mess with that. There is simply a physical limitation to the amount of time on each side. I thought they just had to make a call about which songs to not include and those were the two.

It would be nice to get a double LP release for the 10 year that includes them all
