distinctlydustin Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Can I just get a standard edition? $70? No! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamdbz Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 The price sent me for more of a trip than the album art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oojavaguru Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 WTF? Usually WB has been doing 2 versions of their albums. The cheapo standard version and then the deluxe 45RPM 180g Version. I guess here, they just said, we are going to do only one version.....at $70? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Secular Haze Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I'm really hoping for a color standard edition like the CTS tour press variants, but I highly doubt that will happen. Mordecai 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I love the cover art, but that price is absurd. I begrudgingly shelled out ~$40 for the 2xLP 45RPM copy of The Hunter, but there is no way I'll shell out $70 for this. If there's a reasonably priced version that comes a long, I'll most likely buy it. I didn't really like the single they released though, so I might wait until I hear it before I think about shelling out any loot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuzzersonKillwell Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Honestly though, this is Warner. I don't see how this isn't for sale on Popmarket at a much cheaper rate later. Requiescat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseydave77 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 They did this with The Hunter Deluxe where it was I believe $60 and then they did a standard edition. I also recall the days of using Hot Topic 50% off coupons on that release and being pretty damn happy. We really really blew it with the Hot Cash thing by pushing it so hard around here. The amount of lurkers that latched on to this place killed a very good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troymess Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 $70 is absurd. I'm sure this album will be terrific, but not $70 terrific. Hopefully enough of their fans feel the same and WB will have an abundance of these in stock and will have to drop the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron666monkey Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Awesome artwork. Love the single I've heard so far. Not loving $70. Will hold my horses for something cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoshotthefrog Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 As much as I love Mastodon I can't justify spending $70 for a double album with the only extras being 4 exclusive lithographs. No even close to being worth that kind of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicondevil Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Once again the major labels coming "Round" to try and squeeze out every last drop of profit, all the while killing enthusiasm for this rapidly growing appreciation for records. Can't they see that they are slitting their own throats? The sky vinylz is falling. distinctlydustin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadmonkey Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 god dammit. At this rate I'd rather pay $25 for the album and an extra $10 for a print of the artwork. In any case I think I'll wait till a black friday sale at relapse or something to pick this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuzzersonKillwell Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 That's a tough one, but I'll take a shot. Say I'm working at the N.S.A. Somebody puts a code on my desk, something nobody else can break. Maybe I take a shot at it and maybe I break it. And I'm real happy with myself, 'cause I did my job well. But maybe that code was the location of some rebel army in North Africa or the Middle East. Once they have that location, they bomb the village where the rebels were hiding and fifteen hundred people that I never met and that I never had no problem with get killed. Now the politicians are sayin', "Send in the marines to secure the area" 'cause they don't give a shit. It won't be their kid over there, gettin' shot. Just like it wasn't them when their number was called, 'cause they were pullin' a tour in the National Guard. It'll be some kid from Southie takin' shrapnel in the ass. And he comes home to find that the plant he used to work at got exported to the country he just got back from. And the guy who put the shrapnel in his ass got his old job, 'cause he'll work for fifteen cents a day and no bathroom breaks. Meanwhile he realizes the only reason he was over there in the first place was so we could install a government that would sell us oil at a good price. And of course the oil companies used the skirmish over there to scare up domestic oil prices. A cute little ancillary benefit for them but it ain't helping my buddy at two-fifty a gallon. They're takin' their sweet time bringin' the oil back, and maybe even took the liberty of hiring an alcoholic skipper who likes to drink martinis and fuckin' play slalom with the icebergs, and it ain't too long 'til he hits one, spills the oil and kills all the sea life in the North Atlantic. So now my buddy's out of work and he can't afford to drive, so he's walking to the fuckin' job interviews, which sucks 'cause the schrapnel in his ass is givin' him chronic hemorroids. And meanwhile he's starvin' 'cause every time he tries to get a bite to eat the only blue plate special they're servin' is North Atlantic scrod with Quaker State. So what did I think? I'm holdin' out for somethin' better. I figure, fuck it, while I'm at it, why not just shoot my buddy, take his job and give it to his sworn enemy, hike up gas prices, bomb a village, club a baby seal, hit the hash pipe and join the National Guard? I could be elected president. TheEnigmyst, eight1echo, NoWorthyIcons and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
