3milesdown Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Who has this? And was it worth it? Convince me to buy it. I just unloaded 80 bucks on the radiohead boxset, but my christmas paycheck is yet to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manicdogbert Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 i've got it. buy it if you wanna get all their albums (except Von and Von Brigodi) on vinyl in one go. i already had all the albums when they were released but i bought it anyway because i had the need to waste money. it's a nice package though. the photobook has some really cool shots.

3milesdown Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 I love all the albums and I've been keeping my eye out for () but I feel like the the LPs alone do better justice than this box set for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manicdogbert Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 the only thing is that Agaetis Byrjun (whatever with the spelling) is pretty pricey on its own and the vinyl pressing of ( ) is kind of noisy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

counterfiction Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 the only thing is that Agaetis Byrjun (whatever with the spelling) is pretty pricey on its own and the vinyl pressing of ( ) is kind of noisy. the original press of () is noisy. i thought they were going to remaster it for this box. bummer. and to answer your question Monk, yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3milesdown Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 sorry for reposting it. i swear i saw it somewhere, but i didn't do a well defined search. and when you say () is noisy, is it really noticeable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk0nuggets Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I think he is talking about the first pressing of it. The box supposedly has a much better sounding press of it. I haven't heard either though, just read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3milesdown Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 I've heard some negative things about it, so I'm a bit defensive, but I've also read really positive things too. After reading the other thread, I'm still not sure if i want to drop over 150 for a repress of 4 records and a picturebook. but hot damn it might be worth it.

manicdogbert Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I think he is talking about the first pressing of it. yes, i was talking about the original pressing of ( ). and when you say () is noisy, is it really noticeable? well, since Sigur Ros' music is really dynamic, it's definitely noticeable on the more quieter parts (for example Untitled 3).
