Melvins CD Box Set

[Brooklyns Finest PoonTang]

hey JZS, you said in the box set cost thread that these CDs have extra tracks. Where did you get this info from? kinda curious they don't mention it in their announcement

[Mad Arab]

CD's you already own ( or will own in regards to TBSM), repackaged! Great idea! The kids will go ape over it!!!

They haven't re-released anything without bonus or demo stuff....26 songs, G.P.T..... and B.O. said whenever the Boner stuff comes out it'll all have bonus tracks. I don't know for sure, but I'd be very surprised if in a 13 CD box set, covering over 20 years, there weren't a few extra things thrown in.

I heard the same thing about extra tracks in some interview..not sure which one though.

I used to work in a printing bindery....fuck man...just be sure to know this box set was definetly produced and printed, very late at night, in some dirty old shit-hole factory...for slave wages...and long hours of borin mind numbing printing...I used to get bleach and chlorine sweat burning my eyes and face from the paper dust...but I can tell you...it will probly be worth half a grand!

I'll bet it will look absolutely one of a kind and incrdible.

the printing business gave me a real appreciation for things like this, or the book...etc...I used to print lots of cd liners..fucking stitching machine ALWAYS fucking jammed #$%!$)($^(!)$^!)$* {$*) *(!$)*%!#$*~@)$(~$^) *!^%)*#%{!)$....that was my life as I knew it for the last 4 fucking years.

chainsmoking...listening to melvins all night, alone in a dirty 100 year old layer of dirt, grim, dust...ink...heidleberg and muller presses...getting my lungs full of that sticky glue from the perfect binder...the Vietnamese girls all laughing at you in vietnamease...

the way I see it, I will find the place they were printed at, and just pull all the extra stuff out of the dumpster naturally...a LOT gets wasted.

they don't call me dumpster D. for nothin' !

theres an art studio with an old 1890's press in my little town...It brings me painful memories of my wasted life.

If theres is any foil pressed stuff on this bad-boy, it is going to hit you hard in the wallet.

I always wondered why I never got to run a job for something cool like a melvins book or something, makes me sad...we mostly printed and finished stuff that would find it's way to the nearest trash receptacle before even being looked at...like jesus propoganda type crap or TD bank shit.

WHY GOD WHYYYYY???
the only reason that place was still in business is cuz they didn't go digital...they could print the stuff no one else could do anymore....obsolete crap!
(the highlight from that job was dye-cutter dave cutting his finger off on a REALLY FUCKING old die cutting machine)

[pinkyslim]

extra tracks are usually throw away garbage..
BUT MELVINS are a whole different animal.

[MeddlingCrybaby]

You all realize that Mackie used the same press to print covers for a small run of A Senile Animal? 

I'm curious to see the final product.

[anaconda]

Yes, I realized that.

THATS THE SAME MACHINE DAVE CUT OFF HIS FINGER USING!!!

It had no ground and if it touched any part of that machine and touched something else...it'd send the current right through me like an electric fence!!!

FUCKING BASTARD !!!

[Dumpster D]

no safe guards or nothin'  on this printing press!

I dunno how much one is worth, but If you can lift it, I know where to steal one.

it's absolutely worthless...you can counterfeit money with this thing if you can get the plates, I loathe that press.

I remember this thing from the darkest corner of the facotry....it was there, always...waiting...

ah, I'm happy to say it wasn't my finger...I hated that machine, my boss would tell me about when they had at least 15 or so of those things running with little kids working on them (back in the 60's or something, they used to race for 48 hours straight to finish big jobs runs) he told me one of the kids once said ;

"hey look, I've been doing this so long I can do it with my eyes closed"

do you want to know what happened next or is it too obvious?

squeeeesh...yarrg! all I can tell you is to NOT put the fingers on ice, apparently contrary to popular belief.

oh and ASLO...don't work in the printing business...unless you like those "fight club" type jobs..and you make your own home-made explosives.
or you happen to be a degenerate 3rd world refugee running from alimony payments from 3 wives, and wanted for forged documents , and spent time In a guatamalan Prison, or your just another one of thos damn boat people with no sense of humor.
or you're an excessive drinker and the workplace is less hellish than coming home to your "family"

you'll wind up a headcase like That Travis Bickle character..."you talkin' to me?"

just look how I turned out?

I know that I'm asking a question that's on everyone's mind interested in purchasing this, but does anyone have a hint as to where it will be for sale online?  They're all Ipecac releases, so do you think it will be on the ipecac site? 

[Kolonel Kurtz Kobain]

Where are these going to be available from online? Ipacac? Do you know when the release date is?

I got a couple..... one with signed certificate of authenticity and another without....... they're sweet......anyone seen a torrent yet for Petty's new one: Mojo ?
