The Thrice "Alchemy Index" boxset is CURSED! SERIO

[scotterson]

i ordered mine last summer also. i dont really see why everyone hates preorders so much. it sucks that it has taken so long, but i would buy this regardless of when it came out. if some money is in fact needed up front to fund it (not that i think that is the case with vagrant/cobraside, but with smaller labels) i have absolutely no problem doing so.

People don't hate preorders. They hate waiting a year for preorders. I'm fine with a month or two, but anything more seems a bit outrageous.

not everyone has a problem with the disc, its isolated cases -

[brmaki]

I think you just contact Vagrant through email.

Ok, I shot them an e-mail this afternoon after I gave it a listen, hopefully they'll have some good news for me. Aside from that one spot, the records sound great and the liner notes are a good read. I'm really glad I picked this up.

Can you substantiate that? I haven't heard anyone say theirs is fine.

[pjaicomo]

has anyone heard about how you might go about getting the 4th disc from vagrant if you happened to buy this at a local store? the guy over vinyl there wasn't even aware of the problem, said that i was the first that had brought it up and he had already sold a couple others. .

The others were probably sold to people who don't have record players.

Ha, wouldn't surprise me at all.

The collective should open its own pressing plant.

my copy never had any issues got it off on ebay early last week

[rustyburrito]

So is this uhh...shipping yet? Updates?

[shadowplay1981]

this box set is really nice, whatever were the issues and the problems, its really great listening music, specially the way

its presented and packaged, i really think Thrice set a new standard with this vinyl release, there is lots of box sets coming out, were its just a box with some records, maybe a poster or a picture, this feels and sounds different, you get this really good feeling reading and listening to this project, worth the wait.

[jmt873x]

well seems like they are in stock now with the replacements...just waiting for a shipping notice...almost a year not bad lol

[rustyburrito]

Mine finally came in today...SOOOO sick. Haven't had a chance to listen to it yet though

[plagues]

Got mine today. This was definitely worth the wait.

[hookups96]

bummed when i got mine the back cover was already tearing off a bit!

[mattisr1984]

the back cover of mine made some weird cracking noise when i first opened it. thought it was cracking or something too.

[teganandsara]

I love this set looks so classic I think it was worth the wait.

[pjaicomo]

Not worth the wait, but cool.

[gmoney]

Not worth the wait, but cool.

Worth the price? Still debating on whether or not I want this.

[jordan999]

I think its worth the price for sure, 4 10" records at $9 is $36, which would be the absolute cheapest. The book is actually pretty bad ass. Nerd Alert had them for under $50 with shipping, but not anymore.

Worth the wait? No, no record should be pre-ordered before the project is even started.

[rhythmgtr5]

how does this album sound on vinyl? Did they do a good job with the mixing / mastering?

[blanketbyday]

everything about this release is A+ other than the long wait some of us were subjected to.

AND the lack of spine printing on the book!
