This whole thing was a cluster fuck in every way. At least we got more Dsbh and Love Metal demos out of it...

there could be more demos anyway, i dont see any reason of putting 2013 and 2014 live versions on the reissues of the old albums from 1996-2003). If they wanted to put some live versions they should have used the versions from old tours like The Funeral OF hearts from 2003 or 2004, When Love And Death embrace from 1997 .... etc
but the coolest thing is that they put that much bonuses on each remastered album, thats nice
and another huge + is the EP on Vinyl :)

New DR values:

Greatest Lovesongs Vol. 666 - 5 (Original was 6)
Razorblade Romance - 5 (Original was 6)
Deep Shadows And Brilliant Highlights - 5 (Original was 6)
Love Metal - 6 (Original was 7)

Quite the pattern there. Going from already bad to even worse on every album.

Lowest value of any song was You Are The One with a 4.

You're shitting us? I was planning on buying this with some extra xmas money 75% for the remasters, and 25% for the bsides after hearing them all. Now to find out the remasters are worse than the OGs, looks like I'll be skipping this all together. Clusterfuckmoneygrab20142015

I wouldn't judge the reissues based on some theoretical number... Especially since we haven't even heard the vinyls yet. The quality of an album’s mix is largely separate from the amount of dynamic compression used. It’s possible to have a terrible sounding album with no compression at all (EXAMPLE) and its also possible to produce a good sounding but heavily compressed album. Heavy compression limits audio fidelity in an absolute sense, but it does not ruin it. What truly destroys any chance of good sound is clipping. Clipping is what happens when the recording is pushed louder than the CD can support. There is absolutely no reason to have clipping in a recording... It audibly damages the tonality of instruments.

It may be clipped on the CDs a little bit, but it won't be on the vinyls... I don't think it's even possible on the vinyls unless they press the vinyl with what they put on the CD.

Just spoke with one of the dudes @the end records on the phone, they're are fulfilling the die hard bundles first and he said there are about 2,000 of them and there are only two guys working on them through the weekend. He said he did 400 alone himself already. They are working on it. Must be a nightmare trying to do that with only two guys.

Shame on them for not being prepared. Also, if you're one of the people that decided to go with media mail, those are being shipped last.

it will be in Slovakia on 1/06 which is actually some Christian day off so nothing and no one is working, that means that the shop will have it like on 1/09 (friday) or 1/12 (monday) thats what it says, but i doubt that because from where i purchased it (slovak shop, its import from USA, one CD costs me 23 euros so it will be quite expensive than 44 dolars LOL , but shipping was huge, so i think its the same, or i will overpay it? nevermind its HIM i wasted more ridiculous money on HIM shits in the past LOL) it will take more probably, so i dont know if it will be in my hands until 01/23 (my name day in Slovakia)
everything is so fucking complicated

I got my cd bundle yesterday.   The velvet is sick and i like all of the designs for the CDs.  Its cool with the roman numerals I and II. 

I am happy to get the LM demos and Hollola Tapes.   The remixes and new lives are good too.   I think it's a nice mix bit i was hoping for some unrleased bonus tracks.

Mine still hasn't shipped  >:( i emailed them and said ill get a tracking number when shipped which according to thier site said it did, i ordered mine a couple days after it first went on sale they said orders are being sent by who ordered first and my patience would be greatly appreciated  >:( i might actually of still had patience if they sent it on the actual release date and thought about hes they were doing everything with this mess of only two people working on it, you'd think they'd be more prepared ir have more people working on sending it out

So...I thought the 2LPs were supposed to be heavyweight...they seem to be thinner than the single LPs. And the colors? GLS is black with a small bit of red splash....and Love Metal is like a clearish amber color with green mixed in. Oh, the silver DSBH is a dull gray with black splashes. RR is at least pink. So damn disappointed with these releases.

Are you fucking kidding me? These were supposed to be straight up RED, PINK, SILVER, and GOLD on 180 gram. I'm gonna be so goddamn pissed when I receive this...and yet, the completist pansy that I am, I will not return it or ask for a refund. lol

This whole release has been such a cluster fuck.

Just looked on Instagram and saw some of the records. One guy had a Love Metal where the center label was offset, sitting ON TOP of the actual vinyl! And those colours....

Hello everyone! I've been a fan for so many years it baffles me. Just wanted to say thanks to you guys. Stumbled on this page, found out about the reissues and got them ordered last month. It's also reignited my love for the first 4 albums, Venus Doom and all the b-sides etc. Being an audiophile, I was very excited to see that they were going to be issued on 180g wax and be remastered. Reading some of these recent reviews has me a bit worried though. I guess I'll just wait and judge myself, you know, whenever the damn thing gets here. I even paid for quicker (and much pricier) shipping. Having only two dudes in your warehouse to ship out a release of this magnitude is just dumb.

Damn.

Welcome sir.  We have some audiophiles running around here as well.  I think they're insane, but you can't tell them that.  Plus, we love them just the same. :)
