Is that print ever gonna be released? Been delayed twice, listed again for release today but its almost end of the day in the UK and with lack of hype leading up to it I'm assuming it's not gonna happen again.

I have mild ADD and I'm quickly losing interest in this.

Sorry

I am in LA this week so will be next week.
I don't really care for hype , I'd rather have quality and longevity

As well you should. I just want my damn Zombi print! Hahah.

I think I'm just a little frustrated with the changing release dates and no info about the change except that it doesn't go onsale. As someone wanting to give you my money perhaps in the future refrain from advertising a sale date unless you are 100% certain that its gonna happen that day. I know shit happens but I was checking your site every little while today waiting for it to go onsale (again) just to have it inexplicably not happen. So yeah.

Fantastic art. I'd really think about scrapping the surrounding border on the sleeves. The art would be so much better served as the entire cover. The fact that the art (half the appeal of this product--the music being the other half) is miniaturized to the center of the sleeve surrounded by black and blue really takes away--from the art. Especially with the type of art being commissioned. That EFNY art in particular would have looked gorgeous full-cover, as would this LTROI piece.

I saw an earlier post you made about the covers of the vinyls being "teaser trailers" for the exclusive limited prints that follow, but by doing that I think you're making a presumption that the vinyl's can't be as--or more--appealing to your target art collectors, and really down-grading the idea, collectibility and visual appeal of the vinyls. They could be more than teaser trailers.

Just my opinion. Either way, some great work is being displayed in this project, hope this continues to take off.

When I voiced the same opinion, from what I vaguely remember of the conversation he said that it was about branding - and you get the litho of the art included anyway.

I still think it would have been nice to have the full bleed art, as they'll look way off from everything else in my collection. And you can always emphasize your branding on the back of the sleeve.
Oh well - it's mainly about the music.

Is the print going to have this HUGE Death Waltz recording logo on it ?

[bert]

Yeah, I agree with David and Danchbosky - I wish the art covered the entire sleeve. I'd prefer that and a small Death Waltz Logo in the bottom corner (or preferably something on the back) to keep up the branding. Seems such a shame to have that nice 12" x 12" 'canvas' which the artwork is only a small part of.

I bought a sub, signed up to the email list. this is the first notification I got. Has anything shipped yet? I can't even keep track of what I'm getting. Colour me confused...

[ulrick]

I'm so glad I decided not to get a sub....This looks to be unorganized to say the lest.

[SaintNoir]

Would prefer the full bleed art too.

Also find it weak that the black vinyls are now the same price as the limited colored ones. At least the releases are solid.

[sonicboom]

I would also prefer the full art.

But yes, it is indeed about the music.

An email blast went out ? very weird.
Have you not recieved any notifications at all ?

Thanks for the feedback. I've always loved house sleeves which is why we have one. You get a 12 x 12 litho with the colored vinyl so get the full art (I personally think this is better as you can just frame the litho without having to frame the sleeve.
