nelso330 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Ok if they were in stores...how much were they? More or less than online? That is what started this line of discussion after all. In all fairness XL used the term Deluxe Edition for the variant for AMOK....but does it really matter at this point where stuff was available? That album is gone and done with...onto new music! Thankfully Thom continues to pump out solid album after solid album! There are NO FURTHER DETAILS with regard to another pressing at this moment so those asking and if at all slightly worried about not getting a copy just suck it up and buy it! Chances of a standard edition are probably likely in the future...But someone would have to put it out, like XL or Capital...because as far as we can tell this is self-released...

laralaurent Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Going through my first listen through to decide if I can shell out for the vinyl. I feel sort of guilty saying this, but I love how much of a workhorse Thom is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Ok I think that got derailed in semantics. My question: is there any precedent of the fanciest/$$$ versions being sold for cheaper prices offline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aju2streets Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 These surprise albums are really hard to budget for! ^This, I usually plan out what I'm going to buy so I have money set aside for it but the surprise release seems to becoming common with U2 and Thom Yorke both doing it within the same month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shifres Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I got a receipt from Paypal but the web page showed me an error, I hope it went through properly. I should've gotten another kind of conformation besides Paypal? *Edit: Their order tracking link just bounce you back to the Vinyl page ( http://store.tomorrowsmodernboxes.com/OrderTracking/ ) so I can't even check my order status... Did anyone else experience this kind of problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niblips Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 at first i thought it was too much money.... then i bought it, and i still think it's too much money Cloudsbelow, jonnywreck and agaetisbyrjun 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bear801 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Not to sound like a collector jerk but man i wish i knew how many copies were being pressed. $50 is a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 For people on the fence about a $50 LP, I'm quite positive this will receive a non-limited bare-bones release at some point. Didn't that King of Limbs special package go up before the standard one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't that King of Limbs special package go up before the standard one? Yeah but IIRC, just like with In Rainbows, the single LP of KoL was mastered from the CD and the newspaper edition was not.

itsgoodtobefree Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Yeah but IIRC, just like with In Rainbows, the single LP of KoL was mastered from the CD and the newspaper edition was not. From the CD? Where did you get this info? Or are you saying from the same source as the CD? Because from the CD and from the CD source are two very different things.

kidamnesiac Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Yeah but IIRC, just like with In Rainbows, the single LP of KoL was mastered from the CD and the newspaper edition was not. Yeah nope. That's made up. tokimedo and itsgoodtobefree 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toomanyrecords Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 In true kess fashion. Lmao look it up anywhere. The In Rainbows diskbox is mastered analog and the single LP rip is much, much worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I have both the deluxe IR and KOL and their standard pressings. Can't tell the difference for IR, but the KOL single disc sounds terrible compared to the Deluxe. That being said, I haven't seen any source info for either and the DR database info on these albums is incomplete. I don't think anyone knows for certain.

museummouth Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 In Rainbows deluxe is a 2xLP and the standard is a single right? So there that's why it sounds better. It's also cut to 45 and like 200g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidamnesiac Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 In Rainbows and The King Of Limbs are 2XLP and 2X10", respectively. Both are 45rpm. Of course they sound better than their single disc 33rpm counterparts. But to to assume the master source was the CD based on that information alone is ludicrous. nothingnatural and itsgoodtobefree 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 It's not based on that information alone. It's based on the fact that the single LPs sound like garbage, not just in comparison. They're flat, not dynamic, and muddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museummouth Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Still not sourced from CDs. Might sound bad but check our facts before you blast. circuit bored records, stl_ben, itsgoodtobefree and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Don't know why you'd be so quick to jump to the contrary if you agree that they sound bad. If they were pressed from the original tapes, they wouldn't sound that bad. simonsj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
