I. Want.
With all these goodies I can’t help but wonder how much it will set you back.
If only the price were listed at the very bottom of the article…
touche fair prince
Honestly, this album does NOT need to be remastered. On a good home stereo or car system this album sounds fucking amazing and thick – like my cock. What’s there to remaster? I’ll still be buying this though.
Agreed that this one doesn’t really need the remaster, but other bands/labels need to take a look at this, and see how to remaster/rerelease an album. Instead of remastering it, sticking it in a slipcase (oooohhhh), and charging $10 more than need be, why not pull out all the stops, as the article says, and make it a truly worthy collectible.
I thought this was already remastered, Sony lost the original recording and said they could only remaster it and redistribute it.
fuck yes
Pulling out the stops = nationwide tour

Is there really that many Rage fans on this site?
Yes
I’m pretty sure you’ll find Rage fans on most rock/metal websites; me being (a big) one of them.
Only if the remaster is done by GGGarth.
Something awesome I’ll never be able to justify buying for myself.
The price has come down from the stated $136.07 to a more realistic(?) $103.44, and it’s only around $6 to ship to the UK. Decent! My order has been placed mainly for the full Finsbury Park show. I never expected that to be an extra, awesome news.
its kind of funny that a band that’s so against commercialism would put out something like this. cash grab communists. hahah what a joke
