Suspiria is one of the most overrated movies of all time.  The score is all you really need IMO.

I’ll probably pull the trigger as I have no self-control and I’m a sucker for anything on the label.

Support Deathwish, buy from them.

Received my copy of The Fragile today.
It arrived in a standard Amazon style mailer. No bubblewrap, no cardboard inserts. I was actually surprised my jacket wasn't dinged up and creased because this package is quite heavy.
 
I would imagine Sandbag is likely going to go through another round of jacket replacements for this release as well. I just got lucky today. The album was somewhat crammed in the mailer, so the spine of my jacket has a minor crease. Likely won't be a problem for those of you who ordered multiple titles at once.
 
The vinyl comes in very nice poly sleeves, so no paper scuffs. It looks to be well pressed, though my copy might be slightly bowled. Hard to say. The cellophane was super tight on this release and paired with the compression from that mailer, it may have bowled the records. It definitely led to a bit of ring wear already. 
 
Nice full size lyric book included and some other reading material regarding the making of the album. Y'all will be pleased.
 
Best of luck to all. Hope your copies arrive completely (or mostly) unscathed. It's been an 8 month wait for this reissue.

This show was a blast. I still have a giant ridiculous poster from this show as well. Though, for whatever reason, I don't remember Thursday at all.

Me

listen, I am going to say this once .
 
we are pricing everything in the store at the lowest possible discogs pricing
and anyone who knows me, knows that this isn't about making an extra ten bucks
or something, off of some new hard to find LP.
 
I have traveled to EU and Asia getting a lot of these records and have been (and still)
busting my ass and putting myself in debt to make this a reality.
 
if you don't like the idea, don't come.  simple as that.
 
I know a lot of people who'd like the chance to see  and check out the condition of an LP before buying it.
and I know a lot of people would like a shop that focuses on contemporary music and not a lot 
of dollar bins and stuff you can buy online.
 
once again, if you dont have something nice to say.  ..
 
 

for all of those you who haven't seen anything about this yet..

I'm pretty sure it's meant to be a karaoke record. 

Nothing about the music industry is normal. There's no reason that muting vocal tracks should have costed an additional $40 per unit. Sorry. Just doesn't make sense.

Since this is a big reissue campaign with the added bonus of Deviations, it's really similar to what the Pumpkins did with their remaster/reissue series.  The Aeroplane Flies High could be considered their Deviations except it has 5 LPs.  That box, which was a hard slip case with foil printing and sparkle stock on the LP sleeves was retailing for around $100 ($90-$115 depending).  Never did I really feel ripped off when buying it (at $90) and I think it's because it looked and felt substantial.
 
Same for Mellon Collie.  That was a ground up reissue because it changed the track order and expanded from a 3xLP to 4xLP set but it included 2 huge booklets inside a slip case.  And I bought that fucker for $65, although out of the gate it was retailing for $80.
But the point is,  the Pumpkins weren't touring on that music at the time either.  So it was all to sell those records and the price was reflecting the labor that went into the project.
 
Not to beat the dead animals, but I think the disappointment is warranted, even if the pressing is great and sounds really nice.  Packaging and presentation make a huge fucking difference in what consumers will stomach when shelling out money.

In the time it took you to post this, you could have posted it in that thread.
 
  And apparently it was appreciated here.
 

New Lore repress on clear with blue smoke.

It was a pleasant surprise to see Quake pop up on the webstore. That was one of the most important video games growing up for me. One of my favorite aspects of the game was seeing the ammo packs for the Nailgun branded with the NIN logo, of course.
