I got the Porcupine Tree cd in the mail yesterday, which is amazing by the way, and the packaging pissed me off so much that I took out the booklet and cd and put them in a jewel case. It doesn't have a back though, which sucks, but its alot better than the shit it was in.

I'm hearing the first song I've ever heard from Deliverance right now ("Deliverance") and its incredible. I hope to god this will be an easy album to get in a JEWEL CASE after its release.

Your thoughts?

I can't get over how great this new song is :eek:
 
I'm sort of indifferent to digipaks, although my Damage Done CD came in a big fat digipak that folds twice for absolutely no reason, which I find mildly annoying.

I wonder if bands get a say about whether or not to release digipaks. I'm tempted to think no, but on the other hand, if Opeth says to MFN "we don't want our CD in a crappy little digipak" will MFN really say "screw you" and release it as a digipak anyway?
 
I dislike them too, but it's even worse when there is not a cd holder thing and it just slides in the cardboard (In Absentia). After a while, that cd will get all scratched up. but the packaging for Katatonia's LFDGD, it's cool, but it barely fits. if it didnt fit I'd be pissed off :<
anyways I'm probably getting the new Dredg for the holidays also. there are finally some reviews on amazon for it.
 
What I REALLY hate are those Relapse jewel cases with the bit of paper sticking on the top of them: When I remove that paper, there will ALWAYS remain a sticky spot on the case which makes it stick everywhere and finally become really ugly. I've tried everything, I can't remove it... :mad:

Use rubbing alcohol and a razor blade. It's a pain in the ass, but it works every time.
 
The best digipak I seen are for the Roadrunner Record, they work tre money you spend, but I read for example tha the new soilwork, dark tranquility and in flames sucks.....
