Air - The Virgin Suicides 15th Anniversary !


Recommended Posts

Amazon.ca has a few copies of VS that is either the OG or the boot. 

Took a chance for $29ppd.

I was gonna take a chance on that one too.. but strangely the description says japanese edition in jewelcase,which had me fearing its just the japanese edition cd incorrectly listed as vinyl?:\

Let us know what it turns out to be :)

I'll just wait til then or until the standard reissue pops up

I don't know if anyone is on the fence about this release on account of price, but you can order (currently) the re-presses of Virgin Suicides (standalone LP or boxset) and Premiers Symptomes on Amazon.de right now...they are pretty cheap after VAT is dropped in checkout:

 

Virgin Suicides [Vinyl LP] EUR 15,96 (this is obv not the boxset, just the 2xLP)
 

 

EDIT: Oh and make sure you use a CC that doesn't charge you a foreign transaction fee....

The non boxset VS vinyl along with some of the other reissues are up on bullmoose&soundstage direct NOW!

The albums besides VS,which is at a great price surprisingly, are a lil more than i usually like to pay but ive been wanting these forever so i think it'll be worth it personally for me to have them in my library finally :)

Hopefully its a good quality pressing..

Strangely ive read that the reissues besides VS will be remastered :\ really hope they dont mess these up~

Hm, they're all kind of expensive. The new Moon Safari is $25, when I see the one that's in print now at local shops for ~$15 consistently.

Yea i dont know why their repressing moon safari tbh... i guess to be consistent?

its been frequently in and out of print though since its release! Luckily i snagged a brand new eu repress of it for ten bucks awhile back. Sounds great too~

I would suggest grabbing the moon safaris already out there especially if its a euro pressing&cheaper than this repress for sure

free shipping + 15% off with code MAY1515H, got Talkie Walkie for ~$21

Haha i did the same earlier today too!

I think i may just keep my order at bullmoose for the rest i want since VS is cheaper there even after discount and with the others added its free shipping anyway so about the same price :)

Just cracked it open. It sounds superb. This is a very nice, high-quality pressing.

 

Funny you should say; I was just about to post a question....does anyone else's VS exhibit some off-center tendencies?  Mine's pitch is fluctuating constantly and my tonearm is swaying 2mm or so side-to-side.  It's surprising to me because I also got the Premiers Symptomes repress and it sounds AMAZING.  One of the best-sounding albums in my collection.

By the way just opened pocket symphony and the vinyl isnt completely white...

Its more of a "white chocolate" white(if anyones seen a white crunch bar its like that).one of mine even has tiny black speckles throughout it

To me it looks interesting so i dont mind it! i have a feeling some people may find it "disappointing" though..

This think is awesome, even the picture disc sounds great- but, wasn't this supposed to come with a dvd of the movie too?

"The Virgin Suicides/15th Deluxe Edition will be available xxxx in 2CD Deluxe Edition, vinyl and Limited Super Deluxe Edition including 2 colored vinyl, exclusive vinyl EP, 2CDs, a 16-pages booklet featuring a new interview and liner notes by Thibaut Wychowanok, a film poster, a VIP laminate pass, a download card and Sofia Coppola’s feature film on DVD."

I think the european box comes with a region 2 dvd. US box doesn't come with a dvd. Though, if you want a dvd, you can pick up a new one for about $5: http://www.amazon.com/Virgin-Suicides-Various/dp/B00DW5IKYS/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1434422114&sr=8-5&keywords=virgin+suicides

I got the single LP today from bullmoose and it sounds really great. Also its the first time I've ordered from bulmoose and their 3 day cheap shipping was a plus. Since it was "available" on the 15th and actually got it was on the 15th, was cool.

Bullmoose really is the best. It's no wonder why Insound folded.
