dredg has been putting out their back catalog out on vinyl recently. Starting with Leitmotif last year and delivering a few months ago. They also have started selling their second album, "El Cielo" as a 20th anniversary vinyl release (although at this point they only have the bundles left). Three days ago they announced "The Vault" on Instagram: quote:VAULT - a bold, very limited collection of previously unreleased and recently sourced works of art, music, video and relics spanning 28 years time. Besides dropping that it's for an upcoming album, this vault seems to be including the rare stuff from their past. In the last two days since this got announced they already revealed that a "Making of El Cielo" DVD will be part of this, and just today revealed that it's including a CD of the three track "Orph" EP. (Yesterday's update was a "Sticker sheet 1994-2022")

Yesterday they announced a patch, but today they announced something that I can’t decide if it’s cool or lame. “Casio Without Arms”, a version of Catch Without Arms, as performed on a Casio by Dino, released on cassette. Instagram has a sample. https://www.instagram.com/p/ClUAnE0vcV3/?igshid=NTdlMDg3MTY=

Picked Leitmotif off of one of those sound stations at my local music store at the time, Ernie November. Wanted that sound pushed forward, so I felt pretty let down with their successive releases. Still, great loving band and good to see them reach for it with a comprehensive set like that. When you make a bid for longevity, you'd best not break up under pressure.

Was wondering why I caught myself singing Ode to the Sun the other day.

I bought one because I'm an idiot. I already have so much merch and concert posters, Drew's paintings, etc. from back in the day, I had to. All the high priced stuff is already sold out, really hoping this gets them whatever they need for LP 6. And whoever pays for the Zoom call with them demoing new music better record that poo poo. All that being said, especially knowing Drew, this should be a killer package. They haven't said anything about shipping dates that I know of though? e: lol the picture they use on the confirmation e-mail is one of Drew's 6x6 paintings that I have angrygodofjebus fucked around with this message at 20:00 on Dec 1, 2022 |

Yeah I bought one of the standard bundles. It’s more than I should have spent at $250 after tax and shipping.

I just got an email with a tracking number! Not shipped yet, but I might actually get the Vault before Christmas.

Got my Vault in this morning before 7am (dang USPS, that's incredibly early). My book is number 181/1,000. I have been spending this morning blowing off work, and archiving all the media they sent me (ripped the flexidisk, made an ISO out of the thumb drive, ripped the CDs and the DVD, scanned a few things). I'm pretty happy with this vault, but the music archive could have been better. They're just mp3s, and 160-192kbps ones at that. Not very extensive either, I have many more rarities from CDs and their website than they had on this drive. I haven't read through the book or anything yet, but the book is extremely well made. I'm going to be adding the scraps of new-to-me music very soon to my iTunes and see if there's anything I don't have. The El Cielo "Brushstrokes" they included were much different from the songs I had (and I had higher bitrates than them), but they don't even have ID3 tags, just named in the filename. So it's a messy collection of rarities, which is a bummer.

Mine arrived today. I haven't listened to the media yet, but there is so much stuff included and it's packaged so well. A ton to dig into but I don't feel as bad paying for it now after seeing everything. Just flipping through the main book is bringing back so many memories.
