surfingelectrode Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Any clue to how long each one is? The rehearsal video for Escape from NY that they posted was like under 4 minutes long. $20 for 8 minutes of music is pretty lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I grabbed both mystery colored 12" - it's Carpenter which means I haven't much self control. docbronze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to. And then I saw there will be special tour versions of these, so I'll just wait and grab those when I see him next month.

Yeah I saw that too, but Sacred Bones isn't the best label at properly divulging information. Their red/white swirl of Lost Themes is going to be available through mail order and on tour. So I wouldn't be surprised if the red and blue tour versions wind up being the 'mystery' colors. Even that press release posted in the Fango news story said the pic discs were /2500 whereas the SB site clearly states them as /2000. So who knows... Man those shows are just 2 months away now - I've got great seats I need to sell for the Philly area show so if anyone is interested PM me.

turbobrando Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Pitchfork stated that the live show colors were going to be red and blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Ugh, I may get caught up at the show and end up with tour copies... That's harder for me to resist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfingelectrode Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Listened to the new re-recordings on Spotify and I'm curious... what exactly is the whole point? The band sounds good, but the tracks all literally three minutes long. Like, what's the whole point if they weren't going to do anything interesting with the pieces, like jam on them or extend them? They could have released all four on one 7" for $10 instead of on two 12"s for $30 total. Love John Carpenter - he's one of my favorite directors ever and his two albums are great, but I'm glad I didn't order these... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 I saw them on Tuesday and the show was all around great. They played about 80 minutes. I think they played three songs off each Lost Themes and the rest were the themes for his films. The band sounded fantastic. Only glanced at the merch, so I didn't see what the vinyl choices were. One of the best shows I've been to in a while. docbronze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 What colors did everyone score for the mystery vinyl? My Halloween/EFNY is blue with a slight marbling of a variety of colors but mostly darker blues and white. My Assault/Fog is completely awesome. Its a translucent greenish/yellow with dark green whisps/splatter throughout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of merch available for folks who are into that. Excellent stuff all 'round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
