My Arms, Your Hearse Reissue

[Sinistas]

From Blabbermouth:

OPETH: 'My Arms Your Hearse' To Be Reissued With Bonus Tracks - Aug. 6, 2003
OPETH's "My Arms Your Hearse" will be reissued in the U.S. on October 14 through Candlelight Records.

Earlier this year, Candlelight welcomed the return of "Orchid" and "Morningrise" to its U.S. catalog (previously under U.S. license to Century Media). Now the final of the OPETH original release trilogy comes with added bonus tracks for the band's U.S. fans.

Released in 1997, "My Arms Your Hearse" is the biggest selling of the band's three initial recordings. With over 10,000 sales to date, it is considered
by many to be the band's best. Recorded at Studio Fredman in Gothenburg, "My Arms Your Hearse" will contain two extra tracks, including a remake of the CELTIC FROST classic "Circle of the Tyrants".

Let's all buy 50 copies of the re-release each and make Opeth rich. Who's in?

[Funeral Portrait]

but...that would make me poorer

 

[no country for old wainds]

Considering this re-issue came out absolutely ages ago....and I have owned it for months....what the hell is your point? :/

 

[no country for old wainds]

Oh. Maybe the U.S never got it or something...

 

[Akronaes]

Rad, it has the Circle Of The Tyrants cover, I love that song. I wonder what else they threw on there..

 

[DE]

Riiiight.


That's been out for ages for us Brits.



Yes!



UK > USA

 

[The Evil Toucan]

hmm well why has The End stocked it for quite some time now? Also, I thought there were two bonus tracks on it, the other being the Maiden cover...

 

[Genocidal]

the bonus tracks are covers, one of the Celtic Frost song and the other is Iron Maiden's "Remember Tomorrow." well done, they are.

 

[Greenwater_Pond]

What's strange to me is how I already had MAYH with Circle of Tyrants and Remember Tomorrow on it...and I bought that about 9 months ago..

 

[opethwundi]

i can be poor for opeth

and i will buy this album

that's all

 

[DE]

So let me get this straight, it's been out at least 9 months in the USA too?

 

[Sorrowful Night V]

Blah, I have all of the original versions of these CDs and I regret it.

 

[Stormwatch]

I cant believe it's only sold 10,000 copies! St Anger goes multiplatinum and Opeth sell 10000! It's fucking nonsense man!
Buy more Opeth records people!

 

[murderedbysound]

i bet its been out for prolly a yr...in fact if we take a gander in the booklet or on the back of the case it will prolly tell us when its been re-released :Smug:

 

[coronerox]

This reissue, doesnt change anything to me, its still going to be too expensive for me!

 

[no country for old wainds]

The Circle of the Tyrants cover absolutely owns.

 

[illbeleavinnow]

Definitely. The other song doesn't... and I think they made a reissue because the first reissue sold out. That's my only explanation.

And as far as I know the original re-issue has been out all over, not just the UK. You English wanks take every opportunity you can find to prove you're better than the US you colonized. [/random act of anti-England]

 

[PeeWee1473]

I probably won't get it because the bonus tracks mess up the flow of the CD. Yeah, yeah, I know, you're gonna say, "Well just stop the damn CD after Epilogue." No, it doesn't work that way. When Epilogue plays, I sit in a trance and just close my eyes and listen, and then after it's over just sit for a few moments with my thoughts. I don't want to have to get up and turn it off. It's just wrong.
