patreeeek Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) The pre-order goes live on the Killers store later today.

The only album missing from this set is the "Don't Waste Your Wishes" Christmas album. Edited April 20, 2018 by patreeeek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be curious to see if the price is different elsewhere. I'd love to have that live album but that's not enough to get me to buy this.

lethalenforcer Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 If Hot Fuss and Day & Age were still really hard to come by, and I was a bit inebriated, perhaps then I'd splurge. Are there any indications they're going to call it quits? Not much drives me more insane than box sets created for things that aren't completed yet. Just feels like a waste. nardes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much drives me more insane than box sets created for things that aren't completed yet. Just feels like a waste. I don't think so. From the interviews I've heard with Brandon & Ronnie, they seem to think they'll be likely to make more albums given that Dave & Mark aren't touring anymore. And that Record Store post says this: The contents of The Career Vinyl Box all goes to show how truly wonderful The Killers’ recording résumé has been to date. Have all the songs been written? Given the overall breadth found in the grooves of this fine, fine compendium alongside the promise of what’s to come, the answer can only be, “Not if The Killers have anything to say about it.” edit: by more albums, I also mean quicker than usual without long breaks in between each record.

KingTacoMunster Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 like $40 an album, jeez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhemblem Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Not looking forward to dropping this much cash, but this is a must buy for me. I wish they sold the box separately though as I already have all the albums (besides Royal Albert Hall). The Killers webstore will have it in 5 hours and I bet the price won't be as high. I'd expect it in the $150-$200 range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patreeeek Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 It would have been cool if it also had a bonus 45 of "Shot At The Night / Just Another Girl" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patreeeek Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) Looks like there's a standard black version as well: https://shop.musicvaultz.com/*/Vinyl/Career-Box/5UDF0D6V000 Clear (just under $200): https://shop.musicvaultz.com/*/Vinyl/Career-Box-Limited-Edition-Clear-Vinyl-Version/5UDG0D6V000 Edited April 20, 2018 by patreeeek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vega Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Probably won't be getting this, if they announced they were calling it quits i would get it but it's just too expensive to buy it just for the hell of it. I would really love a singles 7" box set though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lethalenforcer Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I'll venture to predict the clear will have a dumb upcharge for the limited nature and be more like $200-215. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmhmm Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Wow, this is...so unnecessary. And to make the live album exclusive to the set? Awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Saw this and thought, "Hey, I'm glad I've held out buying any of their stuff. A box set is cool." Then, I saw the price and I backed off. Hopefully this gets a little discount on Amazon in a few months, then I'll scoop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmhmm Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 It would be one thing if a significant portion of their albums were difficult to find but they completely undermined the sell-ability of this box set by re-releasing their hard-to-find stuff earlier this year as standalones. Someone didn't think this through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookups96 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 $71 difference from Black to Clear on this which is pretty much $10 a record up charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
