brandy Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Exactly.. He could have waited 3 more months or so to do the pre-order. But he did mention he has big plans for 2016 as well so maybe he needs the money now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodmusic Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Yes, as some have stated, this is a one-person label. I have never not shipped someone's order. This is also not my first foray into large box sets, it's my third. And overall it's my fifth box set release ever. Quite frankly, there is nothing to worry about. But, I understand people will worry even if I say that.The main points are that I have been doing this now for several years, tons of releases, and even some similar stuff. Also, this is a legally registered business within Finland, and the entire company would fall into a tailspin of legal complications if I decided not to comply with my own sales terms, completely ruining the label or any future opportunities for myself or my artists. Also, I spent 2,5 years designing and building this set, the final parts are put it for sale, wait for the manufacturing to finish, and shipping them out. Basically, the most difficult work is done. There are no reasons for me to flake on the set whatsoever because the downsides for not following through are far worse than actually just putting it for sale and finishing it.Here is the full 3D mock of the marble edition.Emperor "The Complete Works" Box Set - MARBLE EDITION Transparent blue base with black marble vinyl.Limited to 222 copies.50 center labels26 heavyweight inner sleeves24 heavyweight LPs10 heavyweight triple-gatefold jackets4 heavy card stock inserts3 posters1 heavyweight 7"1 92-page hardcover book1 heavyweight 7" gatefold jacket1 two-part heavy-board outer box1 slipmat1 cassette tape (for 2015 orders only)1 signed lyrics sheet (for 2015 orders only)* Please note that the records are pressed by hand with actual physical materials, so the amount of marbling will vary from record to record. jerseydave77, GhostTrail and jack8urt0n 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen. I don't care what your reasoning is or how much sense you make. I want this and my wife will decapitate me if I purchase it so I'm going to complain and be a bitter bear to make myself feel better about not being able to own it regardless of what you say.

Prestonlanes Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 This would be amazing to own, but too rich for my blood. Looks fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly one of the best responses I've gotten so far cause most people just shout what a fuckface I am and how they hope I go bankrupt and become a destitute failure in life until I kill myself. Kudos to you man for being honest with yourself, haha. jerseydave77 and 74R 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Pflugey Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 HEY FUCKFACE I HOPE YOU GO BANKRUPT WITH THIS SET. But prolly not since I'll be buying one tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack8urt0n Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I'm just really looking forward to seeing everyone who can afford one, get their copy and post pics. I have been following this saga like most of you, and this is the most ambitious vinyl-related project I have ever seen. Even though I cannot partake, I feel like I am experiencing this awesomeness by proxy. And I'm totally ok with that. Thank you, Blood Music.

hezagenius Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Looks amazing and I wish you luck but hell no. What happens if you get a scratched record? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron666monkey Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Yet still, part of me is tempted to just fucking do this with no regard for the consequences. Who needs a house anyway? People who are successful and have a life beyond records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostTrail Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Right now, it's only open to members. Tomorrow morning at 10:00 EST it'll be available to everyone on the BM store. Also, 3 variants are that sleek blue marble, black and clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron666monkey Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I think this would be cool, but you can buy the Back on Black re-issues for $30 or less, so the idea behind dropping $1,000 on a box set is a little lost on me. I'm sure it will look super awesome, but this one isn't for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostTrail Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Agreed. I know there's some quality issues with the sound on some of the Back on Black issues, and i know these will sound flawless -- but I just can't bring myself to drop just under a grand on this. Even if they are one of my favorite bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 5 Cannibal Corpse albums from them that sound fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostTrail Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 With BoB as a whole or these specifically? I have 5 Cannibal Corpse albums from them that sound fine Just these specifically. I have quite a few of their releases that don't sound bad at all. However, I know particularly that their release of In the Nightside Eclipse sounds extremely compressed and has almost no dynamic range.

Stoked about that since I only have the picture disc version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to score Prometheus from that Hastings mess for about $13, definitely stoked on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic_ Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I finally broke down and got OPs of Scream Bloody Gore and Human, but I'll have to get the BoB of Perseverance so it's good to hear they sound decent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heypeterman Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Ordered. I recently bought a TV that was more expensive than this box set. I'll be lucky if I have it for more than five years. This box set I will have forever. Easy decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
