Back up for sale   Doesn't mention numbers now though in the description!

The wife got me :

Entombed - To ride, shoot straight and speak the truth

Solstafir - Svartir Sandar Test Press

Awesome Crimbo !

So what's the pressing info that everyone has got? I got a copy here from Amazon.com and one from Amazon.it. Both barcodes(according to Discogs at least) show it as a european pressing , both ending 5316, and both having about an inch of deadwax before the label on side A (I believe the ones with distortion on Zero basically run to the label ?) The only visible difference, on the box at least is a parental advisory tag beside the barcode on the box from Amazon.com. Can't tell you sound wise as i'm in the middle of building a new set  up.

Just seen this in todays newspaper :

Yu - after missed morbid angel's box on last year, i think i want some.

but it's pain to skip this too. sigh....

Why are you going to miss out? No funds at the mo?

I got this email as well and am getting a bit hacked off with Earache selling ltd Lp releases only then to do a box set a short while later, total piss take - Wankers!

Thank you, tried it, but it didn't work. I was very diplomatic about it, but still. I guess I will wait for the amazon.ca one to become available, nothing much else to do at this point.

Unlucky there mate, i wasn't confident that i would have got it reverted to the original PO either, maybe just got in there early enough, still, nothing ventured and all that.

The thing is that my e-mail didnt state that I would get it with the same low price at amazon.com

You're right, i never either, so i got back on the live chat thing, and said that i had read on forums that people were getting discount codes or new order prices ammended and that i would be grateful if they could do the same deal for me. I kept very civilized during all contact with them, so don't know if that helped, it was shortly after that correspondence that i recieved the email from Amazon.ca saying to order from .com instead and the original PO price would be honoured. Hope this helps.

ok, wrote to amazon.ca and according to the person I got said they cant do that, because the sites "operate independently". Instead they upgraded my shipping method (which I actually have little use of, because even with the cheapest option it would have gotten here only with 48 hours - from USA to Eastern Europe). I'm afraid it now might even get here slower

Markok, that's what i was told, so i copied the email along with the new order number which stated, that Amazon.ca said i would get it at the origianl PO price through Amazon.com and that the price was to be ammended after placing order'. WIthin an hour i recieved an email saying the price had been ammended (checked my order to make sure too) and an apology for the hassle!

A pain in the arse to finally get there, but at least it got there in the end.

Like alot of others on here i got my Amazon.ca PO cancelled, anyway did the live chat thing with them then got an email saying to order from Amazon.com and then email them and get it at the original PO price, which i did and recieved an email back saying they had discounted the price (which they did), anyway just got an email saying it's now shipped - Hopefully missing the upcoming xmas delays to the UK.

Shane Macgowan - Christmas Lullaby

Dammit, thought i'd done all my buying this year, had to jump on this though, when did this go up for sale ? I'm on the mailing list and haven't received any word on this yet ?

Just spotted this on ebay, i really hope this is a definite and they (Earache) do the entire back catalogue.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/CARCASS-SYMPHONIES-OF-SICKNESS-VINYL-LP-NEW-MINT-/300818054355?pt=UK_Records&hash=item460a273cd3

I think they've put there prices up. I got one earlier in the year at 30 euros ? Their other mail order shop : crazydiamondrecords.com had good deals on Opeth stuff a little while back, but see they,ve about doubled the price on some of the stuff now

If anyone is looking for a new OG copy this LP, Tonefloat has some up on their site, not cheap @ 40 euros, but i'm sure some folks would like a new copy of album.

Seriously, where can I sign up to get the newsletter? Hate that I keep missing out on these. Thanks.

Their Facebook page is the best place for finding out PO info. If you buy something you will receive an email now and again with upcoming releases, but no release date info. I don't have a Facebook account, but have their Facebook account info as a favourite and check it daily for any release info. Hope this helps

Awesome!!! Whats 5pm Finnish time in UK GMT ?

Most of these prices add up to what they are going for on eBay in the past 6-12 months. I'm passing since shipping is a beast for me. Definitely a couple cool items.

Yeah, prices are on the steep side - couldn't pass on a minty fresh copy of tools of the trade tho

Got an email from Earache, they did a warehouse clearout and found some OG presses of some decent vinyl, i managed to score Carcass Tools of the trade 12" and MA Dominate onOG on Green, stuff seems to be going quite quick, any way heres the UK link :

I have the following /100 Napalm Death LP's for trade if anyones interested :

Scum - Lime Green

Harmony Corruption - Corrupted Flesh

Utopia Banished - Slime

I mostly listen to metal type stuff, so if you're interested shoot me some stuff you're willing to trade.

Being a bit of a Shining fanboy, i've been waiting on a vinyl release of their latest album and going by a few forums, so have quite a few others. Anyway, to anyone else who likes them, the new LP can be had here :

http://www.nuclearblast.de/en/products/tontraeger/vinyl/2lp/shining-redefining-darkness.html

also here (they also have a PO of A lot of Girls Gonna Get Hurt EP, aswell)

http://www.recordshopx.com/spinestore/artist/shining/redefining_darkness/

They won't sell in a hurry over at amazon.co.uk - £140 ($225)

It's actually a good idea, since the first two will probably be the lowest sellers.

Really I thought the first 2 were among there best material!

Shane Macgowan and the Popes - Crock of Gold

RIITIIR is amazing, easily the best extreme metal album this year.

btw, its kind of weird to see that usually Enslaved threads have 100 views at this forum, yet totally overrated stuff like Sleep (Dopesmoker) has 10 000 views.

In ten years time people are paying five times more for the RIITIIR first press than the Sleep one - people will catch up, eventually, mark my words

RIITIIR sure is kicking my ass at the mo, like you say i don't get all the hype for Dopesmoker either. As for extreme metal album of the year, it's looking that way for me too, but Anaal Nathrakh's Vanitas is also awesome.

Cant' do a comparison on Frost unfortunately. Osmose said the copy they had was damaged so settled on Monumension instead!

I cannot comment on the Frost reissue, because I have the reissue cover with the original record.

I wanted that one but slept on it and now its got quite expensive. Hopefully should get my copy quite soon so i'll post and let you know if my covers the same.
