I wonder if we petition Southern, we can get them to put out his solo records on LP. I was badgering them about reissuing Karate stuff probably 5 years ago now, and they said they were later that year. Guess they had a change of heart.

Guess they had a change of heart. I'm pretty sure Southern went under completely and the circumstances were not great. I believe a number of artists looking to get their masters back have had a hard time and I think that's been part of what's been holding up reissues of Karate stuff. However, there's some talk of Numero Group putting together reissues of all their material now, which would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandy Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 S/t and In Place of Real Insight available now! https://numerogroup.com/search?q=karate&options[prefix]=last No mention of any box sets but there's a 90s bundle available with Duster and Seam records: https://numerogroup.com/products/the-nineties-bundle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandy Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 In the past, did Numero put up pre-orders for box sets along with bands' individual albums, or did the boxes only go up at the end of the entire series of reissues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxes usually go up in tandem with individual releases, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't think of a time where I felt like I was done dirty by buying individual copies only to have a discounted boxset released later on.

Derek™ Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Just now, DecayToDeath said: Oh good catch Also inverted in the sense that Numero's variants seem to focus on the main "canvas" color of the album art, while PV's are a nod to the accent colors featured in the middle. I think they all look (or sound) great though. Can't go wrong. I'm really pleased to see Seam being reissued through Numero, too. Really hope to bundle more Seam and Karate together down the road.

jerseydave77 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I jumped on this from both places. I'll sort out which I keep later. I'm picturing demand being pretty high considering how long these have been OOP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
