deltadon Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Tooth and nail did a bad job with lowborn. Vinyl has cd quality. Agree with others hoping for individual releases. I'm only missing NS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmhmm Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Isn't it just two labels, T&N and Republic? At any rate, it's just one really, as both labels are owned by Universal (rather, the first 3 T&N albums are owned by Universal... You know what I mean). I'd say it's very plausible for this to be a full discography box. Devotion was through another label besides Republic, I believe. A small label. And Lowborn is T&N only, not Universal.

TFP Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Vital was through another label besides Republic, I believe. A small one label. And Lowborn is T&N only, not Universal. Vital was Universal Republic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmhmm Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Vital was Universal Republic Oh shoot, not Vital my bad. Devotion. And everyone should want Devotion pressed with all those awesome extra songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFP Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Oh shoot, not Vital my bad. Devotion. And everyone should want Devotion pressed with all those awesome extra songs. Yeah, I see, Devotion looks to be "Big3 Records" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexH. Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Tooth and nail did a bad job with lowborn. Vinyl has cd quality. "Cd quality" (16-bit, 44.1 kHz) easily encompasses the capabilities of the human ear and beyond, so I don't think you know what you're talking about. It may be too compressed or have weird EQ stuff happening, but neither of these are intrinsic qualities of CDs. Tedwards_ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpazzyMcGee Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Agree with the sound quality of Lowborn. Listened to it again with some technica headphones and it sounded better than I remembered but it still seemed off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinylfilmaholic Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I sold Lowborn because of how bad it sounded. The FLAC files are good enough in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pressing sucked pretty bad. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenameisluigi Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Vital was rereleased through Big3 Records (as Devotion), which is a local label to the band in Florida. Don't know if it was just licensed to them or if they actually own the rights. Don't really remember the details when Anberlin left Universal Republic.

agua Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 hopefully individual pressings, because i would love cities on vinyl. not too interested on the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devotion was the set released on Big3 Records. Nevermind, I see what you're saying. Devotion is Vital with extras. True, but I still would just consider the band to be on only two different labels.

TFP Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 What probably happened, was Anberlin's time with Universal/Republic was over but they still had plenty of Vital-era b-sides that they wanted to release. So that is why the Devotion set was put together and released on a separate label - Big3 Records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devotion is Vital with extras. True, but I still would just consider the band to be on only two different labels. With Lowborn having been released solely under T&N and T&N no longer being owned by Universal, Anberlin is definitely working with three separate labels for any comprehensive vinyl box set.

TFP Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Ok, 3 labels. I don't think it is implausible for a full discography box set to happen. There have been other album box sets that have happened with multiple album labels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFP Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I think it would be cool if the Anberlin Box Set was handled like the Third Eye Blind Box Set (find a better way to sell it though). i.e. The Box Set would have exclusives and those who wanted the albums separately they can purchase them separately. -With 3EB you had the cream cover for S/T in the Box Set - for Anberlin why not the Black/Gray cover for Cities exclusive for the Box Set? -With 3EB you had the Red Star EP exclusive in the Box Set - for Anberlin why not Lost Songs and Vital B-Sides be exclusive for the Box Set? -3EB sold their albums separately to those who wanted them, why not Anberlin do this also? Just one more run of 500 (or more) of separate albums to those who want just the albums or certain albums. mmhmm, Duff and Tedwards_ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenameisluigi Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 That would definitely be cool. I would love to see some color variants instead of just another black repress for these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpazzyMcGee Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I'm hoping that's the case (buying albums separately) bc from DITW on, the albums are already pretty cheap so there's only a need for the first 4 (and maybe a better mix of Lowborn) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dapeebs Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Sorry to bump this without any updates, but I'm curious to see if anyone has heard any news or rumors about this. Hate to have to look for Cities and New Surrender at the ridiculous prices they go for... THE_James_Champ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
