Bathory Pic lps shitty rereleases

Well I must say that I gought 7 of the 12 rirles and man, are even worse tah the disasterful lp rereleases appeared about 4-5 year ago. BM, in their attempt to save much posible money, did not include inner sleeves with pics or texts, nor even plastic bags to protect the lps, which are already scratched once you open the lp. Not to metion the poor material, editing errors, bad mastering, etc.

save your money or buy the original pic version of the titles available or even bought the boots, which, I swear, play and sound better than this shit market by Black Mark Mad

i wasn't too impressed by the black vinyl reissues either. thin jackets and thin wax.

Woah. . . thanks for the heads up!
I was wondering how they would look/feel/sound. .
BM are totally milking these releases right now.

I wouldn't doubt another 'best of' in the works with differnt covers/layouts/bonus tracks etc.

I never consider the possibility of purchasing any of these. I can't believe how Black Mark has devalued the Bathory legacy with such sub standard products. The Bathory box set was a joke of bad taste in terms of packaging, and so seem to be these pictures discs

I bought the S/T Pic Disc from this round of re-releases and it isn't that bad...it actually looks pretty good in the die-cut sleeve (not built like a tank, but I wasn't expecting it to be)...of course I haven't played it and won't...I don't expect superior sound from picture discs...they always sound like crap...some more than others, but still most are crap...

With that said, the S/T probably looks the best of the bunch...and the die-cut sleeve is pretty fucking thin...

Yeah, those sleeves are so thin that they get bends from the shrinkwrap being too tight...

Fuck these reissues, better off either getting the cds or original LPs unless of course you want them as decoration Rolling Eyes
