bloodmusic Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Blood Music is extremely, incredibly proud to announce the greatest extreme metal band of all-time to its roster - Emperor! We've been working behind-the-scenes for more than a year - carefully compiling every detail of Emperor's oeuvre from the minute they began in 1991 until their final breath in 2007. We are working directly in conjunction with the members themselves to compile the most incredible, beautiful, and archival collection one could ever imagine into a massive COMPLETE WORKS box set, due to be released in approximately one year. This will be the first time the band's music will be properly remastered for vinyl, as well as presented in true vinyl special editions of any kind. An insane honor for us to take part in. Start saving your money this minute. The box set will be a one-time only, limited edition pressing. There will be no copies of our records outside the box set this time. This will be a unique offering that will make a massive mark upon the history of metal and quickly vanish into thin air. Oh, and it will be the largest metal box set of all-time (beating out our Moonsorrow set) and one of the largest box sets ever created in the history of music. So really ... if you want in on this. Start saving now. Early-to-mid 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aealo Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Quite bummer no copies outside boxset, I would be only interested in their 4 studio albums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Nice I wouldnt be also interested in everything they have done, but hopefully the price isnt more than 200 eur (but it probably is). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseydave77 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 This label gives ample notice, start saving now. Their releases have yet to disappoint anyone that has them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anomynous Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Nice I wouldnt be also interested in everything they have done, but hopefully the price isnt more than 200 eur (but it probably is). It'll be more than 200 euros. A lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExtraFox Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 It'll be more than 200 euros. A lot more. The postage alone will probably be more than €200. markok 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74R Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Don't forget an additional $30 to become a "member" if you want to get the die hard version since it will sell out before it's available to the public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anomynous Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 That's an original complaint. The $30 isnt a one time use thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably more next year due to releases like this. Like the label and they do quality stuff but that needs to go away and everyone should get a fair shake.

I don't have a problem with the member thing since Blood Music is nonprofit and I'm sure that money helps keep the label alive. I'm also perfectly happy not being a member and getting whatever editions are left after the member purchases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most are nonprofit by default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfiend Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I don't know a lot of independent record labels that make a lot of profit. Most are nonprofit by default. I can imagine labels like Rise Above Records, Century Media and Nuclear Blast being pretty profitable. The smaller ones, yeah I can agree.

morfiend Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 According to the Blood Music Facebook page, looks like PayPal and credit card payments will not be options for this. Bank transfer only. As a seller myself I can understand why, chargebacks have become a huge problem. With that said though, I was already on the fence about buying this but now I'm officially out.

iron666monkey Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Yeah, I was reading about that yesterday on their FB page too. I bought the SYL box set a few years back, and that beast was pricey. I can only imagine how much this thing is going to cost. I would love to have it, but I'm probably out. And honestly, I'm not really comfortable doing a bank transfer to anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsterrod Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Same. I read that on FB and decided that I am out. I can't being myself to do a bank transfer (love Blood Music, but that's asking a lot). Also, this thing is going to have to be EXPENSIVE if BM requires a bank transfer. Honestly, I don't think I'll be able to afford this anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron666monkey Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Ya'll up for an over-under on what this thing is going to cost? $1,000 just popped into my head. Stupid number, but I'm going w/ it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsterrod Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I was thinking somewhere around the $600 mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 The regular version of SYL box was only 150 eur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfiend Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 The basic (die soft) Moonsorrow box was 275 eur and this is supposed to be bigger than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostTrail Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Yeah, I'm not sure if there are going to be different configurations for this like for Moonsorrow and SYL, but if so I'd imagine even the cheapest would be about $400-500. Really wish I could be as quick to jump out as some of you given the bank transfer deal, but I'm still going to have to see this through for the time being.

DarcX Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I dig Emperor, but I'm so glad I'm not a big enough fan to need this. I'd be so broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
