It's the exact same album that people have already bought, from the 10C. That album was defective and had to be replaced in 99% of cases. What are they even thinking? It's like they don't even care about how transparent they are anymore.

Well this is not designed to be played (unless you own a 7" jukebox).

It could have been better if the video single versions were used for example. MYM, Sirens, LB and Getaway. Uhh maybe not.

Once again, that would have been much cooler than what they actually did.

Yes, a box of video singles would have been much cooler. In 1992.

We're talking relativity here; yes, that would have been cooler than this.

Also, not even playable? What are you supposed to do with them, proudly tell your mate you own them?

No I meant why would you play these 7"s? If you wanted the vinyl you'de buy the album. These look like show pieces only. Well that's my take.

I'm not saying you're wrong (I don't mean 'you' personally), I'm just saying that, well, do people really do this? Spend all this money on 7 inches they can't even play? And for Lightning Bolt?

I'm pretty sure the records themselves could be blank for all most people care who'd buy this set.

Yes. You'll even find people who buy records but don't have a turntable. It's a collector item.

I'd say there's a 50% chance they are blank.

I expect that's probably the case for most people who'll buy this set.

This is stupid, but honestly I don't care what kind of superfluous junk they release, if you don't want it, don't buy it.

Well that's mature and not at all in keeping with the 10c mindset.
