Colin Meloy to fan who ordered a Decemberists LP but mistakenly got a Christian Death LP: "DO NOT RETURN"
Well this is a weirdly awesome story. Comedy writer T.J. Chambers ordered a copy of The Decemberists‘ Her Majesty from Amazon, but Amazon accidentally shipped him Christian Death‘s Only Theater of Pain instead. “Hi @amazon I ordered a @TheDecemberists LP and you sent me a band called Christian Death’s presumably seminal album “Only Theater Of Pain” so…I guess I’m gonna check it out? cc @colinmeloy @MRCHRISFUNK et al,” T.J. tweeted. Amazon Help got in touch with T.J. over Twitter, but if Decemberists frontman Colin Meloy gets his way, T.J. is gonna keep it. “That’s actually a pretty classic record. DO NOT RETURN,” Colin replied.
Here’s the exchange in full:

You ain't wrong, and now my goal is to get it signed by both Valor Kand and Mr. Chris Funk. But my best guess as to how it wound up in there instead of Her Majesty is… they both look kinda tan?
