Anyone here get theirs yet? Amazon says mine is expected to arrive on May 2nd. But until it ships, I don't believe them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntslash Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 It's finally happening. My Heligoland shipped just 18 months after I ordered it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really jazzed at 100+ MSRP for a measly extra LP that I'm seeing everywhere. If it's a 3xLP 45RPM I might go from "hmph" to livid really quickly tbh at that price point. Can't imagine what that extra LP *could be* even. Too many remixes/B-sides to fit on one disc. Already own the 2xLP Royal Albert Hall live 1998 bootleg as well... This is a GOAT album for me so they're going to have to convince me it's worth it. Otherwise, catch me in 2049 for the 50th Anniversary. Hopefully Jared Leto doesn't actually turn into the next Bill Gates by then, and we don't have to deal with Gosling splaying himself on some stairs for oh-so-heroically being a glorified Uber driver for a dad to reconnect with a daughter and sorry massive spoilers for Blade Runner 2049 Edited September 6, 2018 by ａｒｕｍａｊｉｒｏ 零 一つ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timsimmons Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 That’s a lot for only 3LPs. It’s already a 2LP record, so the content is interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeCeCe Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 (edited) Damn will need to get this lol (bought it from Amazon Germany which comes in at roughly £12 cheaper including shipping) At least for the extra cost of all Massive Attack reissues the packages are superbly put together visually The bonus Mad Professor mixes: Metal Banshee (Mad Professor Mix 1) Angel (Angel Dust) Risingson (Setting Sun Dub 2) Teardrop (Mazaruni Dub 1) Inertia Creeps (Floating On Dubwise) Exchange (Mountain Steppers Dub) Wire (Leaping Dub) Group Four (Security Forces Dub) Edited September 13, 2018 by craigeduk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoublesGuy Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Looks like the higher cost is because of some extras https://pitchfork.com/news/massive-attack-to-reissue-mezzanine/?mbid=social_twitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 They’ve been price gouging for years. This shouldn’t be more than $75*. *trying to give them the benefit of the doubt that it’s an import/special box/3 well pressed LPs and the epherma. Really a 3LP set shouldn’t be more than $45.

daegor Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 There's a full art book in there too. I'd temper the price gouging comments that I've never felt ripped off after receiving the package. It's always top notch, and sounds perfect.

timsimmons Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I mean that Burial 12" was $50. So was the Splitting the Atom EP. They are always well made and the presentation is nice. But certainly since Heligoland, everything is way more expensive than it needs to be. Wasn't the OP of Heligoland $75? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeCeCe Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I guess we know at this point that any release from them is going to involve additional packaging, art booklets, custom materials (inks, paper stock, glitter ect) and in this case a heat sensitive box. And all of these are expensive to use. With 3D being and artist and caring so much about the presentation he is treating each item not just as LP but as an art object. I think we can just be lucky that the 1st 3 releases were relatively cheap!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like that, but Heligoland is a prime example of it being worth it. It's probably my favourite release I own when it comes to the packaging and presentation.

OneThreeOneTwo Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) I'm skipping BFRSD for this if I have to (probably will). Good God, I hope my friends with presale access pull through. I'm almost considering Detroit, too. Masonic Temple is the most perfect venue in the world for that band and this album. https://pitchfork.com/news/massive-attack-detail-north-american-mezzanine-anniversary-tour/ Massive Attack Detail North American Mezzanine Anniversary Tour Their U.S. and Canada dates with Cocteau Twins’ Liz Fraser kick off in March 2019 Massive Attack’s Robert “3D” Del Naja and Grant “Daddy G” Marshall, September 2018 (Kieran Frost/Redferns) Massive Attack have detailed the North American leg of their upcoming Mezzanine anniversary tour.

OneThreeOneTwo Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Btw, holding out for a regular 3LP edition of the reissue is foolish or nah? I have a pretty worn out OP I'd like to flip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a pretty worn out OP I'd like to flip. Given their current track record on reissues I wouldn't put much hope in a regular edition of the 3LP, at least not for a couple of years. 100th Window seems to have been 'announced' at least 3 or 4 times over the last couple of years and never appears, Heligoland only shows up as the expensive version after many false starts.

timsimmons Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I’m guessing no. If they are releasing a 2lp at the same time, that’s probably as bare bones as this is gonna get. OneThreeOneTwo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Also, I’m guessing the 3LP won’t be really plentiful. It’s sold out on their site already. OneThreeOneTwo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
