anchorlessbodies Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I love Arcturus but hate live recordings. Also I am dying for a Sham Mirrors repress. Wonder if it will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodmusic Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 This record came out awesome, to each their own. Most live albums are boring - but this one is amazing, otherwise we wouldn't have wanted to do it (sounds arrogant but more mean that we wouldn't have even considered it if we didn't love it). The USA copies just shipped out. EU copies will be gearing up for shipping next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodmusic Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Also, insofar as what we've heard - Sham Mirrors will NEVER happen. Though - that has been said before and proven wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deletedunknown Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I need to check out more Arcturus. Didn't realize they've been around so long. I remember liking Sideshow Symphonies when it came out, then they didn't seem to do much release wise quick enough for my young brain to stick with it. Anyway, the Back on Black version of Sideshow Symphonies is $10 and change right now in intrpunk's bargain bin. It's just incorrectly labeled as a picture disc. http://www.interpunk.com/item.cfm?Item=130951 Anyway, tangentially related and maybe it will get more people to check the band out at least (and then look into this thread's release).

morfiend Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 That's a steal for Sideshow Symphonies. The band's best work was with Garm from Ulver but Sideshow is still a good album and well worth the purchase, especially at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
