maybe it’ll be a little bit of both.
i’m just not expecting too much from these reissues when it comes to the extras.
i mean, even the tristessa single version on cd would make me happy. i don’t need every unearthed sp song to be part of this, and i’m sure it won’t be. everything they do put on there as an extra will just be a nice bonus.as a result, i’m not very excited. i’m interested though. i’ll definitely buy these reissues, no matter what they include.
And I’m very excited for the extra Gish and Siamese Dream material (extra cd + extra dvd), let’s see if it will contain really unknown stuffs. It will contain live material also, if I understand it correctly. Makes me very happy… [/quote:7ezmp6qi]
check out my post about the gish bonus cd on sp.com: http://www.smashingpumpkins.com/board_n … t&p=602301i think these are the usual suspects: the songs that have already been released as a b-side on a single or ep, or as a track on another compilation.
for gish these songs are:
sun
my dahlia
i am one (limited potential 7" version)
not worth asking
tristessa (subpop single version)
honeyspider
jackie blue
slunk
bye june
bullet train to osaka
terrapin
daughter
drown
siva (peel sessions)
smileyi already left out the songs that are on pisces iscariot. and i didn’t include the demo cassettes (unless those songs have been released elsewhere too). maybe they’ll put some demos on the bonus disc as well.
not worth asking is also a candidate for a pisces iscariot bonus disc, as it was on the bonus 7" that came with some of the vinyl copies. so maybe it won’t be added to the gish reissue, but they’re saving it for the pisces iscariot reissue. unless they go for a live show as bonus disc there. who knows?
and drown is already on rotten apples. so maybe it will also be left out here. unless they include the full version on the gish bonus disc. that wouldn’t be a bad thing in my opinion.
anyway, that’s already quite a lot. not sure if they’ll add much other stuff. my guess is one or two previously unreleased tracks, just to give the diehards a reason to buy this. but that doesn’t necessarily mean those unreleased tracks will be new. these might be songs we already know, but that haven’t seen an official release before. [/quote:7ezmp6qi]
if you agree that those songs are very likely going to be included on the bonus cd, that doesn’t leave much room for other tracks.
i personally expect the really interesting tracks to be released via this sp record club. (i haven’t seen or heard the interviews about it though.)And the 92 demo will be FLAC and/or MP3 only, mark my words.[/quote:2u0hbcth]
well duh.
i’m not even expecting a FLAC option.if i like a band, i will often switch to \"collecting mode\" for a bit. this usually means trying to get all their albums, and sometimes a single or an ep here and there. at that moment it’s proper collecting. trying to collect it all. it doesn’t matter if they’ve made one bad album, i’m also going to get it.
i’ve done this for many bands. sometimes i also buy promos, and albums and singles on vinyl. but it’s never as bad as with the pumpkins.
a couple of examples of bands i have at least all the albums:
pixies
david bowie
joy division
yeah yeah yeahs
deus
the beatles
dinosaur jr
the breeders
elliott smith
raconteurs (also collecting their 7\" singles)
the chemical brothers
daft punk
grandaddy
my morning jacket
arcade firei’m still working on my bob dylan collection.
and i’m sure there are many more i haven’t thought about.I think people should find out who the artist is before making comments. Sorry, a bit pissed off by that and the fact that the author of the article just used it without any research. I work on a newsletter and always have to reference photographers or artists when pictures are used, so that is just crappy journalism. [/quote:2h7hkhhb]
you can tell it’s a crappy journalist from reading the article. it looks like some sentences are missing some words.thanks for the answer. that explains it.
i would have been surprised if any official artwork was already out there. they’re still recording it, right?
oh arthur, why?
i think i get it though. this is one of those contacts you have to pamper a little. very clever.
it’s direct from the movie [studio] itself. i was thinking it was maybe more of a virgin-related thing, but it would appear not. not sure what the big W on the j-card stands for. maybe it’s just a generic label, but i don’t really think so.[/quote:1hr0yf4g]
this looks like the same thing: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi … 0726027026they way it’s described, they’re cues for billy corgan. so maybe it’s the movie, but without the music? so that he can find out where he has to compose music on top of?
i think age of innocense is missing due to the early nature of the promo?[/quote:6h76c6zn]
possibly. wasn’t age of innocence the last song they recorded? i believe i’ve read that somewhere.btw, it’s age of innocence. two times c. http://www.spfreaks.com/default.aspx?pa … &item=8656
Yeah, I know what you mean, Bram, I was a little confused too. But when I compared the W and E for example, Billy writes them differently.[/quote:35vbpu60]
but those are mainly small letters. the machina promo is all capital letters. of course there are going to be differences between how someone writes GLASS and glass, or E and e. no?No idea, it’s definately not BC his handwriting. I guess it’s an inhouse promo also?[/quote:3gh2xpzo]
that’s not billy’s handwriting? what makes you think so? it looks like his handwriting to me.and why are there only 14 tracks? where is age of innocence?
have you received these items already? how does the cd itself look like?
