Same cost to Canada, what a joke.

$30.99 to Sweden as well. It's a joke.

And on the same day Alice in Chains take pre orders for Live Facelift. Shipping to Sweden: $9.99

Thanks for the headsup, grabbed the red one.

I used to listen a lot to these back in the days, but haven't been into "that" kinda music in many years. But this is interesting anyway...the word "limited" always strikes a nerve in me. Decent price also.

$44 US shipping to Canada... yikes! 

And the same amount to Sweden...I thought THAT was expensive. So the total is almost $100 US...makes me think twice.

That type of stuff happens all the time. 

 

Also, I don't think people are gonna get these two acts confused.

Me neither, but it lacks creativity and originality to choose an artist  name that has been used, how "small" it might have been before. It takes five seconds to google it, and if you then see that another band/ artist called "Captain Murphy" actually have two releases one might think twice about using the same name, you know.

It's just very uncool if you ask me.

Wtf...?

It's not cool to steal another music acts name just like that. Swedish rock band Captain Murphy made two brilliant albums in the late 90's/early 00's. There can be only one...

I like to tell people (who don't know) that Def Leppard used to be a speed metal band before Rick Allen lost his arm in the accident.

I have this refrigerator magnet at home:

Song from the upcoming album:

Swedish icon Thåström is releasing his new album "Centralmassivet" in September.

Three links for pre ordering here. Black, green (ltd) and white (ltd) vinyl:

Why would PJ themselves market the re-releases of Yield and No Code like they did, and then just say f**k all about these?

Somethings is fishy here...

Emperor is an epic song.

Picked up some albums during lunch:

It's been more than four decades since the NEW YORK DOLLS first outraged mainstream critics and struck terror into the hearts of public guardians of taste and morality. In that time, the once-controversial quintet has been recognized as a seminal musical force and a key influence on the punk movement that came into being shortly after the DOLLS' breakup. Now, UMe celebrates the NEW YORK DOLLS' legacy with new limited-edition colored-vinyl editions of the band's two classic '70s LPs, "New York Dolls" and "Too Much Too Soon", out on May 5.

The new vinyl releases, available in strictly limited editions of 500 each and exclusively available through uDiscover, are as flamboyant visually as the albums' musical contents. The self-titled disc boasts a unique opaque pink and black color scheme, while "Too Much Too Soon" has an equally audacious combination of opaque pink and clear. Both albums, which also feature their complete original cover art, are also available from UMe in standard black vinyl editions.

With a classic lineup featuring frontman David Johansen, guitarists Johnny Thunders and Syl Sylvain, bassist Arthur Kane and drummer Jerry Nolan, the NEW YORK DOLLS served as a bridge between the edgy outrage of the VELVET UNDERGROUND and THE STOOGES and the raw aggression of the multiple generations of punk and hard-rock bands that would soon follow. 

In their original release, "New York Dolls" and "Too Much Too Soon" polarized audiences, embraced by a devoted core of kindred spirits and reviled by many mainstream listeners. "New York Dolls", produced in raw, hands-off style by Todd Rundgren, captures the band's love for raw, raucous rock 'n' roll and Brill Building teen-pop, with such landmark DOLLS anthems as "Personality Crisis", "Trash", "Jet Boy" and "Looking for A Kiss". It's now regarded as one of rock's greatest debut albums. 

"Too Much Too Soon", recorded with reclusive legendary producer Shadow Morton, was titled in acknowledgement of the band members' various personal indulgences. The album features a mix of such band originals as "Babylon", "Who Are the Mystery Girls?", "It's Too Late" and "Human Being", along with personalized covers of such tunes as the CADETS' "Stranded in the Jungle", ARCHIE BELL AND THE DRELLS' "There's Gonna Be a Showdown' and Sonny Boy Williamson's "Don't Start Me Talkin'".

Although the NEW YORK DOLLS dissolved soon after "Too Much Too Soon", the band's ongoing influence, along with the patronage of DOLLS superfan Morrissey, led Johansen and Sylvain to assemble a new version of the band in 2004, leading to a series of tours and three albums of new DOLLS material.

Despite that latter-day revival, "New York Dolls" and "Too Much Too Soon" remain the foundation of the NEW YORK DOLLS' rock 'n' roll legacy. Now they can once again be heard the way they were meant to be heard — on vinyl!

Picked up Brad during lunch.
Has to be the ugliest cover ever...why didn'they stick to the original one when they re-issued it?

This one sounds really nice:

Jimmy Page & The Black Crowes – Live At Jones Beach  [10”] (150 Gram Marbled Black & White Vinyl, limited to 3000, indie-retail exclusive) 10″

Thanks for the headsup, I never saw anything about this before. Pre-ordered it now.

What the fuck!!

I get pissed off when there's no limited at all at first, then all of a sudden there is a red one (that I order), and a few days later an even more limited version?! Bastards.

Yep, I just got the same info...approx 24 hours I was informed there wouldn't be any limited vinyl. Anyway, of course I picked it up.

Due to popular demand from people such as yourself.

We have now changed the record to be a limited 500 red vinyl pressing.

All orders before today will be red & we will state on the site once this pressing has sold out.

I got the white Phantom Radio and the marbled green Blues Funeral on release but am more than happy with good old black.

I got the exact same ones ;-)

I was hoping there would be a limited vinyl, but unfortunately no.
