Also, big reach thinking people are familiar with…Kali Malone?  Not sure what you’re going to get from this survey.  I’m sorry to inform you that you are going to flunk.

I thought you said Karl Malone at first. I know the mailman. 

I can listen to anything I want for $9.99 a month. I'm not sure what the question is asking. Are you saying I would buy the piece of music outright and no one else could hear it? 

I wouldn't cut anything. Some of you are crazy! No need to make this an amazing EP when it's already an amazing LP. 

Pale Horses is probably my favorite mwy album, so I guess I have to buy this even though I own all the other versions.

Watching this Tool deluxe FI sell for $55 as opposed to $200 is joyous. Still expensive, but a "deal" I guess. I bought it. 🤷‍♂️

I bought it for $159 and honestly thought it was worth every penny. 

Does anyone have the ecomix copy of this? Wondering how it sounds. I usually stay away from ecomixes.

Is putting different colors up at different times simply to try to get people that already bought the original to now buy another?

Well, she's definitely not doing it to try to sell fewer albums. 

I would buy this in a second if they showed the back cover art and Ernie was on it. 

Didn't notice the bundle, so I spent $3 more than I should have. Oh well. 

I am listing my green SRC pressing of Astronaut right now to pay for this. 

Maybe they will release the Woodstock live album separately. Otherwise, this looks like a bunch of shitty demos. I will pass on this deluxe release. 

It's $10 shipping, but they didn't charge tax, so it's really only like $7 shipping. At least that's how I justified it. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the store exclusive. 

I'll grab it from my local Target next spring when it's 50% off.

Whoops, looks like I got shipping notification. 

Where did you get it from? 

Could be a false trigger to print a label based on expected arrival date depending on what store you ordered from. 

My copy of Mechanical Animals was supposed to ship on Aug 11, but I received this message today:

We regret to inform you that we have just received the following message from the distributor:

"Our licensor's legal department has withdrawn this release at the last minute due to the various ongoing charges against Marilyn Manson."

Please note that this is a decision made by Universal Music Group International and is therefore completely out of our hands.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused.

I wonder if anyone will get their copy.

Primarily: Something Good, Diorama, Sprawled, Paloma

I'll give you Paloma, but Something Good and Sprawled are definitely not boring and lifeless. Those are both in my top five on the album.

The singles are all great but wow this album has some duds. Incredibly boring, lifeless, slow songs with barely anything to contribute. I can't imagine being in the band or a close friend and telling them they were good additions to the album. I'm really surprised by how half and half it was.

What are some of the songs you didn't like? I didn't hear any duds. I thought the whole thing was great.

The main reason I can’t complain is Failure has no label support. Everything on that site they do themselves. WTD isn’t even in stores. So while it sucks, at least they’re awesome. WTD is the best album not named Fantastic Planet. There’s no telling had they kept going and it had a few more bangers, maybe it even gets there. Because it doesn’t have a weak moment. IMO.

I get what you're saying, but Magnified is 10x better than WTD for me.

This is a cool set.  Feels like it will drop in price 6 months to a year out.  I'll wait.

It's not a bad price for 7 LPs as is, but you are probably right. 

The MOV version is the one to own. Both this version and the Walmart version sound pretty thin.

I liked the Rocktober 2017 Lucy/Candlebox split that was reissued back in 2017. Pretty good pressing IMO. The only Candlebox really I liked anyway. But I would like them as separate albums tho 

I have this one. The MOV pressing of self-titled completely blows it out of the water. 

I am planning to sell my Rocktober split to fund my boxset purchase.

Spot on for year of rabbit. Autolux has followed the ridiculous pricing 

I was lucky enough to get all the Autolux releases when they first came out. I don't think I paid more than $25 for any of them.

Kind of strange to like a pretty popular band for so long, live in their country of origin, and have never ever had the chance to see them play live. I have some fond memories of passing their albums back to back working crappy overnights. Might not preorder until I can hear the whole album but it’ll probably get a big pressing that’ll be at my LRS. 

Same. I've been a fan for a long time but have never seen them live. I've had plenty of opportunities, but I've never really enjoyed live shows by instrumental bands.

Ken Andrews posted an update video on his You Tube channel the test pressings for the audio for the live concert film they just put out has been approved A long with YEAR OF THE RABBIT!  So hopefully we'll see those pop up some time soon.

 

Post comments below complain about how they're 10 buck more then you think they should be  that what we all are here for.

My predictions:

Live album unsigned - $70. 

Live album signed - $120

Year of the Rabbit unsigned - $60

Year of the Rabbit signed - $100

And shipping will be $15 on top of those costs!!
