tonyfranciosa Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I wonder if they will try to time the Twin Peaks reissues with the blu ray release on July 29. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalnutSoap Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I'm definitely going to grab a copy of Godzilla when it goes up, so if it's possible to do so, I'll grab one or two for you US guys. Looks like it's not going up until around the end of June though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigadadw Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 1954 Godzilla stream/release. http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=41115 Blue and white "atomic breath" vinyl /400 and standard is green vinyl and says preorder is soon. Sucks that they can't sale to the US cause of licensing restrictions. Though it might be hard for anyone trying to get the atomic breath with only 400 pressed, then again it being a random time should make it easier. Normanrecords put up the green one for pre-order, so I'm happy I can at least get it somehow... http://www.normanrecords.com/records/147730-akira-ifukube-godzilla-the-japanese-original-60th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hallowken78 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I've never tried ordering direct from Death Waltz before - do they prohibit all sales to US customers or just for particular releases with licensing restrictions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha4281 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I've never tried ordering direct from Death Waltz before - do they prohibit all sales to US customers or just for particular releases with licensing restrictions? this is the first time ive known where US customers couldnt purchase a release through them. I've ordered a few things from them in the past. I think its exclusive to this one. which bums me out a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timpopkid Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 How does the Death Waltz limited thing go? Only available if you order direct from them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalnutSoap Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I've never tried ordering direct from Death Waltz before - do they prohibit all sales to US customers or just for particular releases with licensing restrictions? You sometimes need to license the music from somewhere else to be able to sell a record outside of your base country. It was the same with the Mondo Ghibli release. I didn't know about this board back then, and the lengths I had to go to get hold of that record in the UK were insane - to the extent that I still get nervous every time Mondo announce a new record.

Whip Wilson Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 The 2012 Maniac score was the same way. DWRC could only sell it in the UK/EU (minus FR AND BE) and Mondo only in NA. The green version will be available from a handful UK stores online and they will ship it overseas. The Atomic Breath variant is only being sold through DWRC and since they are also the rights holders, it prohibits them from selling overseas. That's also why LITA won't have any copies of this release. However, there is a good chance the (solid? clear?) green will be a superior sounding release since the swirls and splatters usually sacrifice a bit of sound quality to get the effect. Not everyone's main concern, but well worth mentioning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Godzilla release, the reason DWRC cannot sell Stateside is that they didn't buy the US vinyl distribution rights because Toho wanted a king's ransom for them. Apparently no one else wants to pay that much either since those rights are still for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfingelectrode Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I don't care about the color of the vinyl I'm getting but I just realized after ordering the green version that the limited one comes in a nice gatefold sleeve with a booklet with pictures and liner notes and the green version just comes in a plain single sleeve with a poster. That's pretty lame. Normally I'd just be like 'whatever' but I'm a huge Godzilla fan and would be really grateful if anyone in the UK could help me get a copy of the limited version.

kevbayer Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 That is kinda bullshit ...gatefold and booklet would rule and should be standard. Change the vinyl cover to make it special. ...the last thing I need is another poster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is incredibly disappointing to hear if true. Also slightly bummed that I found out about this release when they included it in their ad in the latest LITA 'zine.

museummouth Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 The clear version? How does it sound, museummouth? Yeah it's the frosted clear version. Looks pretty cool. The sound quality is great, DW never lets me down. I just think they're all worth it for the sleeves alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
