Thanks, Jason

Mine sounds fine and this is the first complaint I have encountered... not sure what happened there...? email Sam@thetimebeing.com and get her to send you a replacement copy. I think there are a stack of them at her place... meanwhile, http://itunes.apple.com/u...e-wilderness/id485099419

Like I said, there are copies at Sam's place in Sydney so, email her and ask her to check the copy first to make sure it is not defective and then get her to send it to you. Please send the bunk copy to her in exchange. Really sorry about that. It's a manufacturing defect for sure as I know several people with the cd and they have not said anything about having a defective copy but I now know that they exist... Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I guess thats what happens when you get disk makers to do a rush release... What a drag. Anyone else experiencing this issue is advised to follow these same instructions. Really sorry about that. I wish we would have found out sooner. There are only 250 copies of the cd and now I am extremely curious to know just how many of them have this problem...

The Neverness Hoax in Maymi style makes the CD worth it alone. Compared to the original, and the rest of the CD for that matter, Limbo seems like it needs a climax, but perhaps in an art rock way the song was performed in limbo on purpose. b

Ancient World is okay, although it sounds quite sparse as the next song, Life's Little Luxuries, is so sharp. We Will Fall is the only song that sounds really weird and I suspected a defect but I guess that's the way it's supposed to sound with goth vocals and all. This album is probably the closest thing to a full band live album SK has ever done. Nothing Inside is perhaps the song that shines the most with this band arrangement. It's like a whole new song. It was also fun to realize Limbo is somehow related to Hollywood Ending. Bloody Red vinyl looks more than cool. Lovely. I thought that this album was made for vinyl and the sequencing and all is made for the a and b-sides in mind, so it was an easy choice to order it. I wonder how the ultrapro Red Eye can send something to northern Europe in 9 days, when ChurchMerch usually took like 30 days or even more. The olde days made me think that it takes ages for something to arrive from Australia when in reality it shouldn't take so long. Last Edited By: chrome3D 12/10/2011 08:07. Edited 2 times.

Steve and Ricky have done a great job of recapturing the feel of the sun dazzled drug infused pop from this era. It is really fun hearing Steve sing in an overall different style. Many tracks you may not even know it is him unless you had not already known going into it. Overall, a very, very fun album.

Looking for Myself and Walk With Me and lots of chatter in between. Yeah, cool. Walk With Me sounds so good here, like it's a brand new song.

Crisp and clear image, quite good sound, good viewpoint, close-ups to solo etc. and of course the 5-piece band looks and sounds magnificent. Lengthy guitar jams too in this 6-minute live version. This is it, tube video de luxe. Thanks to user telleebabe for this. This user has also good versions of Lowboy and Transaction.
