faaip de oiad Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 These Update on the box set as per email: "Good news is the boxes will finally be ready to ship out from the production facility on May 15th. It’ll take a few weeks to arrive to our warehouse so we anticipate that your box set will be ready to ship in June 2021. We appreciate and thank you for your continued patience, and apologize for the delay due to unexpected global vinyl production shortages. As a thank you for your patience, we are working on something special—stay tuned." Great news! Anyway, is that an animated zoetrope pic disc?

mindphaser Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Just noticed the store page for the boxset is now saying release date of August 20? https://aliceinchains.warnermusic.com/facelift-deluxe-box-set.html Has there been any official announcement or updates about this? I haven't seen a thing since first placing the order back in October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kannibal Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 This set is a great example of doing it wrong. I’m kind of in disbelief at how bad the contents of this set is. The folded poster is just the cherry on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faaip de oiad Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 VIP List... ______________________________________ Thank you for your order of the Facelift Deluxe Box Set. We appreciate your patience as we’ve worked hard to perfect this box set for you. It has taken longer than we anticipated, and we apologize for this inconvenience. Current update: the box sets have left the production facility and are in transit via sea freight to the US warehouse, and we expect to deliver it to customers in August. We’re happy it’s getting to the finish line, and can’t wait for you to see it. As a thank you for your unwavering support, you have been added to AIC’s “VIP list” to get first access to special offers and exclusive releases before the rest of the public. We also wanted to share some behind the scenes production pictures showing elements of the box set. You are the first to see these. This deluxe edition 12-inch box features the seminal album on double 12” picture disc vinyl with zoetrope animation on all four sides. The gatefold vinyl jacket is printed on reflective metallic stock, and comes with a custom slip mat, 24-inch poster, four photo prints, the album on cassette, a sticker sheet, a recreation of an original tour laminate, and four clear transparencies which combine to reveal an alternate cover image. The crown jewel of this deluxe edition is an 80-page hardbound book with foil stamped cover, featuring Facelift-era images from photographer Rocky Schenck, background behind the record and early days of the scene as described by each band member, and more. ---- quoted from email this morning al-naafiysh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
