highfives Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Ya think!?!? As much as I love this record, there's literally zero chance I'm paying $100 for it. They would have to include like, their entire discography on vinyl, for me to pay that much - not just some "rare b-sides" and their forgettable new record as a digital download.

highfives Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Their logic isn't helping either... maybe you misunderstand... There's a lot more than a couple of digital downloads. For your pledge of $100 you receive a double LP on vinyl(a very expensive endeavor), an entire 17 track deluxe edition album download that no one else will hear, 4 bonus tracks on the LP which you also get to download immediately And because we care about our fans we are making a special poster, signing it and sending it to you to say thank you. In all that's 34 tracks of music and a double vinyl with limited edition artwork and a poster. $100 is a very modest price to cover all that. Also, keep in mind we are doing all of this in house. It's a lot of work but we do it because we love making music and we love our fans. Thanks for being one. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamover Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Caleb Mauro $100 for a double LP, a couple digital downloads, and a poster? Are you kidding? Way to price gouge your fans. Justin McCormick Vinyl is expensive, but not $40,000 expensive. I have a hard time believing they'll get 400 people to buy this. Lovedrug Caleb, maybe you misunderstand...

dreamover Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I think they put a lot of money into the new album which isn't good and now they're trying to recoup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewfro Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Hey everybody, there’s been a few comments about the pricing of the vinyl. Please understand that what you are paying for is not only a double vinyl. What you are receiving is a 17 track double LP of Pretend You’re Alive with never before heard bonus tracks. You’re also getting a 17 track deluxe digital edition of our new album Notions with never before heard remixes, and a limited edition signed poster. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, your purchase is making it possible for us to tour again in 2016. Production of all of these items that we are putting together has been done in house and it is very expensive. Also, going on the road is very expensive and we can’t do it without the support of our fans. We put this package together to work directly with you, so that we can continue making music and get back on the road again. Thanks so much for your support. Love, LD another message they just posted on FB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewfro Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 So basically all this additional money would be making it possible for them to tour where fans will still have to purchase tickets, etc to said tour. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnystorm777 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I REALLY want this album. But for $100, Nope. Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewfro Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I wonder if any of these "never before heard" bonus tracks are on their 20 track pretend your're alive 10 year anniversary addition: rarities album on Spotify comprised of demos, live songs, bonus tracks, ep versions.

ksleap Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Why not just do another pledgemusic. It worked well for him last time. There's no promise of only pressing 400. They can press 1000 sell the 400 with the poster and sell the rest on tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deafening Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Someone is actually sitting somewhere truly believing that offering a bunch of extra shit that no one asked for into a bundle is a legitimate justification to treat their fans as a cushion for their own financial fuck-ups. Ha ha. There's no way I will be buying this even if it is offered for a reasonable price. Tommy, gmoney and turbobrando 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 There's no way that enough people are going to buy this to make it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
