polderpotato Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 pictures please! Ordered this from kingsroad europe and still have to wait a couple of weeks until it gets shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsterrod Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 So do all the records in the box set come with the inserts that they would normally have if sold seperately? The records include the inserts. If I remember correctly, the only record that did not include an insert in my set was "Stranger Than Fiction" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxmartinxx Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I still think this set minus the "Back To The Known" EP is lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabpower Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I got mine yesterday and it's a great set. It's worth it. There's even space left in it for about 5 other albums. I left the albums I already had in it and kept the newer ones sealed. The only downside is that if you use plastic sleeves, the box doesn't close very well, other than that there's no need to complain because it's a really nice set and well made overall.

jerseypride Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I still think this set minus the "Back To The Known" EP is lame. Every song on that EP is now included in How Could Hell Be Any Worse. It would have been nice to see a reissue but I hardly think the failure to include a duplicative disc renders this set "lame."

newestindustry666 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Eh? I just took delivery of the box set today and I can assure you the tracks from "Back To The Known" are NOT on HCHBAW. Luckily, I have BTTK on vinyl, and the box of the box set has space for about 6 more albums so I can just slot it in, along with any future albums.

seafoamgreen Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 If I didn't already own at least one copy of the band's entire catalog, I could justify buying this. Or if it was more limited and I was worried about it selling out and me regretting not buying it later. It does sound nice though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure it is not included because the recent 2009 repress had them included. I have the red /300 and I'm pretty sure they're included. Check the item link http://kingsroadmerch.com/epitaph-records/view/?id=565&artist=4 they even say it's included with other releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxv Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 The repress has the same 14 songs as the original. Only the CD has the extra shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newestindustry666 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Yeah, that Kings Road vinyl listing is incorrect. Mediocre attention to detail on their part for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phaseshifter Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 My box is sitting at the airport so now I have to try to get out there and pick it up. Not sure why KR allowed a PO Box delivery address if FedEx won't actually deliver to them. What a hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endlessslog Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 i played New Maps today (the lp from the box set) for the first time. i've never heard the album before today, and the record sounds really low, like half the volume of the other LPs i've played from the set. does this record have terrible production values or is there some issue with this press? or perhaps it's just this one.

I remember thinking that the production on this album was kind of weird back when I first got it. Definitely doesn't sound like their other albums. I haven't heard the vinyl version, but the CD definitely sounds odd. The vocals seemed really low to me initially, but after a couple listens I got used to it.

christhepiece Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 It looks like Santa Claus came earlier this year I'm so stoked to be able to listen to this record on vinyl, I know that's weird. I wish there was a download code though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christhepiece Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 so how do the records sound anyway, owners of this set? So far I've listened to "Into the Unknown" and "No Control" and they both sound awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
