scottyrobotty Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 A visual film? Are there other kinds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whip Wilson Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I just came here to post the same thing, but I'd not heard the $15.98 SRP. Where'd that info come from? I'm hoping there will be a USA seller willing to honor that price. Thanks for posting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 A visual film? Are there other kinds? As in it's a beautiful film. It sounds corny but almost like "eye candy." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Thanks. Been waiting on a proper release of this soundtrack forever. Pressing info: 1000 on black. 300 on red. And preordered on Amazon - http://tinyurl.com/valhallapreorder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whip Wilson Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Just to reiterate, the Amazon release will be the black. It will also, presumably, be significantly cheaper with free shipping, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Justin Maheiny Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Is that dude getting raped while the other one is freaking out in the mud near the end? Where they have an acid trip and start freaking out in slow-mo and start raping each other. WTF is that part?? NOTHING happens in this movie after he first 20 minutes except a serious man on man rape in slow-mo. I loved Drive. Bronson was cool. Only God Forgives was so fucking negative I loved it. But Valhalla Rising is boooooooring. First 20 minutes, awesome action. Then nothing happens till they start tripping balls in slow-mo for no reason and dude gets raped. Then main guy allows himself to get killed for no reason and the movie ends. The soundtrack epicly escalates through the whole movie, just to end with a 5 minute long shot of a mountain as the music climaxes multiple times throughout the film. This movie is ridiculous.

electromaniac Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Is this a different edition? Or the same that Invada sells? http://www.mewelesite.be/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=63&category_id=1&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 So Invada lists this as 1000 Red on their website: "Limited edition 180G Blood Red vinyl available courtesy of Milan Records and Invada Records on 26th November (1,000 units)." I'm not familiar with Invada and Milan records. For those who are, are they affiliated and if so it is a 1000 units total then? And is anyone sure if they are doing a red and black version?

This is a smaller, boutique label who, according to MeWe's sole proprietor, had the license first, mastered it for vinyl, and curated the tracklist for the album. For some reason (delays, shady business, etc.) Milan acquired the rights next and used his track listing to make their own version. What they didn't get was his master, they are purportedly going digital to vinyl on theirs and WeMe has spent a long time on fidelity and presented it over two platters. Unfortunately, they arenboth ready for release simultaneously. Most of the above info came straight from WeMe and there are two sides, etc., but they have had great fidelity and care in prior OST releases by De Robaix so I ordered with them. Fingers crossed.

cdmclements Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Heads up http://experimedia.net/index.php?main_page=product_music_info&cPath=1&products_id=10170 Thanks for the link. I emailed WEME about whether there would be an American reseller, but they never got back to me. 15 Euros direct from the label, but shipping was the killer at another 21 Euros or so. That being said, $31 is a deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whip Wilson Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Mount Analog also has it for $30. I just received my red copy from WeMe this morning and spun the first lp at lunch. It sounds great. Clean and clear. They did a great job. I'm interested in hearing a review of the Milan release now to see how it sounds crammed on to one platter.
