apeman Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 So what does it sound like? Is it good? Much better than the GSL picture disc. I'm glad to be able to listen to it without all that surface hiss from the old version. It also includes all artwork parts from before.

shorthairedmetal Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 My pre-order from Soundstage Direct arrived this afternoon. Fantastic packaging/artwork across the board and the vinyl looks badass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerAndTheDuke Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 My pre-order from Soundstage Direct arrived this afternoon. Fantastic packaging/artwork across the board and the vinyl looks badass. What was the color you got? I ordered black from them and haven't received shipping info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natenomm Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 What was the color you got? I ordered black from them and haven't received shipping info. I could've sworn they said the black were shipping a week or so later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passionbrand Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 got my copy in from Sound Stage Direct. Gold copy # 1542 they really packed the record well. so much extra cardboard. Gold wax looks amazing!!! packaging and artwork are some of the best I have ever seen. can't wait to spin this beautiful monster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 BTW: the inner grooves from the black one are excactly the same as this MOV pressing. Are you talking about the bootleg that was circulating shortly before MOV's pressing was announced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Is this press coming shrink wrapped or in the standard resealable poly sleeve with the MOV sticker in the corner? SRC's photo of their variant looks like it has neither. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you talking about the bootleg that was circulating shortly before MOV's pressing was announced? Indeed Interesting. Wasn't someone ridiculed pretty harshly for suggesting it was possible the bootleg came from the same plates? Considering this new info, it's not out of the question that someone at the plant doing MOV's releases thought they could make a quick buck and cut a few copies for themselves on the sly... That is, if by "inner grooves," you mean matrix etchings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is, if by "inner grooves," you mean matrix etchings. Yeah, someone was... I'm wondering if this boot pressing was from someone getting a hold of the plates for this repress and putting some out early...? (and not a digital conversion as most suspected) I'll be curious to compare sound quality between the two. no chance in hell. the bootleg will not sound as good. Dude, that's some serious imagination/wishful thinking bullcrap. But hey, whatever makes you feel better about buying and peddling counterfeit records. daegor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesecrets0308 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 That's pretty funny. TDAGARIM joke, I presume. Still pretty baffled as to who thought that would be a good idea to put that big honkin sticker right in the middle of the cover art.
