Nitzer Ebb - 1982-2010 10xLP Box Set

[jhulud]

This career-spanning retrospective box marks the first time that all five of the band's albums for Mute have been collected in one complete box set. The box set features 10 vinyl LPs - newly remastered versions of all five of their albums – That Total Age (1987), Belief(1988), Showtime (1990), Ebbhead (1991) and Big Hit(1994) – plus five LPs of bonus tracks and rarities, all carefully curated by Pylon Records and the original artwork expanded into gatefold sleeves, with embossing and spot UV finish. It also contains a large size 28-page booklet with liner notes by Douglas McCarthy and Bon Harris and unseen photos, flyers and artwork, detailing their entire career in chronological order from Essex to Los Angeles. These albums have been out-of-print since the early '90s and have never been reissued. The actual two-piece box is made of hard board stock, wrapped with leather paper and the UV design is hot foil stamped.

Limited to 500 copies worldwide.

Wow, really wish I could justify getting this right now.

Looks like there are 2 different versions of this, only one of which is limited to 500 copies: A limited edition Pylon exclusive colored vinyl version which includes Basic Pain Procedure bringing the total to 11 LPs and the standard black vinyl version which only includes the Mute albums with their respective bonus discs.

I haven't revisited Nitzer Ebb's music in a while. I really liked Belief and Showtime. I was also into Ebbhead for a while but it wore on me a bit quicker than the rest. That Total Age and Big Hit never clicked with me and I've never heard Basic Pain Procedure. I'm not sure I could commit to the full box set, especially not 

at $35 an album but may pick up Belief and Showtime if they get separate reissues.

Awesome set, just don’t have the coin to drop on this at the moment.

 

I take it the regular black vinyl box set isn’t a limited release?
