birdwell Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 i think you all need to try Dinosaur Sounds again, it's really an excellent album. Or maybe I'm just biased cause that was my high school jams haha. It was really bad compared to Keasby Nights and Alone In The Crowd and everything Streetlight Manifesto has ever done.

anthemforadoomed Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Both versions of Keasbey Nights are amazing. I'd love a release of Streetlight's version of Keasbey on vinyl but I think I understand why it hasn't come out. I don't think Streetlight was psyched on Victory pressing their two original albums on vinyl. They don't want the label taking the profits from the art they make. Victory also charges the band a lot per vinyl copy for them to sell themselves (for example, Cd's cost them $7 each which is a lot and they are a cheaper medium). That is probably why their albums have only had one press so far. Pressing Streetlight's version of Keasbey is just making more money for Victory. Victory Records only released the CD version of "99 Songs of Revolution" and the label Streetlight owns: Pentimento Music Company did the vinyl release. They make more money off the sales that way. They also have basically disowned Keasbey Nights. They refuse to play most of the songs from the album live, and Tomas has said that some of the songs are bad. As it has already been mentioned, it is explained in the end of SM's version of 1234, 1234 Tomas didn't like the sound of Catch's Keasbey originally and rather than let the label do a re-release they opted to re-record it instead for two reasons: to finally get a second chance at making that album sound the way Tomas wanted it to in the first place, but also because it counts as a Streetlight Manifesto release toward their 5 record contract with Victory which they are desperately trying to escape from. It was essentially made as a political move on their part. (Victory says they have only done four releases and the band still owes them another album. So they don't count either Keasbey or 99SOR as a real release because under the label they have 5 albums with their name on them. I think the real question is "will they take their version of the album with them when they depart from Victory? Will they just leave it behind and say "just download it illegally"? If they do take it, will they take the Catch-22 version too to make the money from it, and say 'fuck you' to the label? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dethrock Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 No it's funny this was bumped. I just put in a Victory order and picked up the SM version of Keasby Nights. I told myself I'd never get it, but it was free so I thought what the hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opivy Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I still have the Gimp demo tape in pretty decent condition... who remembers Gimp? Mrs. Butterworth's indestructable bombshelter is one of the best Kalnoky songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black 'limited' is a relative term. It is definitely not the most limited compared to the other variants. I'm just glad I'm able to finally spin this.
