3 Days Only: “QM” Deluxe Digital Dump

A win for you is a win for us 🎖️

“This may actually be too much stuff.” So we were advised after submitting the track list for Qualifying Miles: Deluxe Digital Dump. (£4.99 —> get it here.)

“The runtime of this is longer than the total of the 5 albums you put out with us 🤯.” That’s according to Ed, our man at 100% Records. (£4.99? Wow.)

It is 52 tracks spread out over nearly four hours of runtime, and it will take you inside the guts of Qualifying Miles in a way that maybe isn’t safe. That maybe… should’t be legal.

But it is legal, even if it’s some kind of norm violation, so here we go. This is what we’re offering:

•⁠ ⁠Full album (mp3s or peak quality, lossless WAV files)

•⁠ ⁠Track-by-track commentary (77 minutes of talking!)

•⁠ ⁠All 12 acoustic versions

•⁠ ⁠All 12 instrumental versions

•⁠ ⁠Rehearsal room live recordings of “A Lesson I Never Learned” and “Dead Letters”

•⁠ ⁠Live recording of “Broken Wings,” the song by Mr. Mister (why not?)

•⁠ A 32-page digital booklet with the album artwork, lyrics, and photos

•⁠ ⁠3 hours 47 total minutes of listening

What we’re asking in return is a fiver. £4.99, to be precise. Why so cheap? Was this a drunk decision? How can we afford to feed our families?

As the families of professional musicians, our wives and children are nourished not by vittles and drink, but by CHART POSITION. Yes, this is a scheme to juice our chart position this week, which is why it expires Thursday at midnight — after that, even the gods can’t help us.

We believe there are five types of people who should buy QM:DDD:

1. People who want to see some nice guys finally win in this world.

2. People who want to have a Qualifying Miles karaoke party, and need instrumentals.

3. People who caught our cover of “Broken Wings” on Jo Whiley last week and have to hear it again.

4. People who think listening to us talk about songs will be a nice way to fall asleep.

5. People who can’t understand Keith’s lyrics because of his accent, and want to know what he’s yelling about.

If any of these describes you, click this button:

Of course, you can help our chart position while also making a timeless addition to your record (or CD or cassette) collection by ordering Qualifying Miles from your local record store or our web emporium.

We open and check each copy for quality.* (*lie)

Last thing: any of these versions of Qualifying Miles gain you access to Thursday’s pre-sale for our big October shows.

These ones:

Thank you for your support! We hope you’re loving Qualifying Miles as much as we love playing it.
