andrewlucas Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 $250 for the other test is ridiculous. $100-150 max. he was saying in a comment he left that he feels the prices are reasonable for what you get. The other packages I agree with. Anything The Dear Hunter he is charging 30% more than they are worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atticus Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Wait so you don't get anything from this project if you purchased the color spectrum.... Shit, I have a color spectrum box set for $175 if anyone wants it. I'll even tell you the money is going to fund one of my lifelong dreams (of paying my bills) if it helps you spend the money.

chamb117 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 i mean... the album art is what's in the corner, right? not his mug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadDonut Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 So it's been so longed since I pledged this I don't even remember what I'm getting. I bought the $50 LP bundle so what's the difference in my pledge and the pre order that just got put up for a cheaper price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 i mean... the album art is what's in the corner, right? not his mug? I really (truly) hope so. This release has got a lot of potential; the flow and instrumentation of Acts I-III are what make them gems, in my books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the $50 LP bundle so what's the difference in my pledge and the pre order that just got put up for a cheaper price? You get a sighed copy of the score book. I really (truly) hope so. This release has got a lot of potential; the flow and instrumentation of Acts I-III are what make them gems, in my books. I can't agree more. The video Casey posted the other day with some little teasers of the music being recorded sounded phenomenal. Also, I highly doubt the thing he posted that's shown above is the album art. I think that's probably just a promo poster. The thing in the corner seems more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the new announcement he said were are doing a second pressing of the vinyl on black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewlucas Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 What announcement? I just watched the most recent one and there was no mention of vinyl. Just music clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokimedo Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 cant believe i just found out about this. glad i can still pledge for a record. and i dunno where it said the PO copies will be black. this is what was posted on the the dear hunter facebook... Friends, we are very happy to announce that the pre-order page for Casey's first Symphony has launched! For those of you who were not able to pledge to the campaign but would like to own the symphony, this is your chance. We are doing a CD pressing, as well as a second vinyl variant. There is also a cool new shirt design exclusive to the pre-order bundles. Check them out here, and have a safe and happy holiday! from the sound of that, at first it seemed it was a new colour, but i looked on the description of the merchnow page... Symphony No. 1 Black Vinyl LP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kever Wevers Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I TOLD MYSELF TO DO IT WHEN I HAD THE CHANCE AND NOW IT'S TOO LATE. DOES ANYONE WANT TO SELL ME THEIR SUPER SWEET VARIANT WHEN THEY GET IT? BLACK JUST AIN'T FOR ME, DOOD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameswiersema Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Both are black from what I understand. Backers get a 2xLP at 45 RPM and the merchnow version is a Single LP at 33. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I've always felt Casey has tried too hard to force these "concepts" of his into his music. I've owned Acts I & II & The Color Spectrum at some point & I've always just felt like it was an "A for effort" deal. So I think the idea of this symphony sounds great in theory but I'm hesitant to shell out $$ for another Casey project that leaves me feeling "meh".

That's a little disappointing, but whatever. I'll still try to get my hands on the 2LP some way or another. Thanks for the info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
