Is it just me who thinks that the vinyl relases of Opeth's "Orchid", "Morningrise" and "My arms your hears" are crappy?
The vinyl are of low quality, so when you have played it 5-10 times, it sounds like it's been played 20 times.
I think this is only on MAYH, but I could be wrong, but when side 1 ends, you can hear the start of side 2 and the same thing on side 2 & 3.
The bonus tracks are also on the cd's (as far as I know) and they're all crappy low-fi primitive death metal that probably has no interest to any person who likes the music Opeth plays now. The only decent bonus track is their cover of Iron Maiden's "Remember tomorrow", but falls short of Maiden's original version.
And then, probably the worst part, the covers are crappy! Just the front cover and the back cover, two white innersleeves and NOTHING ELSE!!!!!!!!
No mention of band members, no pictures, no lyrics, not even the year the were originally released - NOTHING!!!
I buy vinyl because I think the sound quality is superior, but I can't feel other than ripped of when I pay for shitty stuff like this.
I saw someone saying something like "This is the first time the records will be released on vinyl and I've heard we can expect a little extra". Well, where's the extra? In Displeased pockets, I guess.
I paid 135 Kroner for a nice Music for Nations edition of "Blackwater park" with a nice gatefold cover. The three Displeased versions costs 149 Kroner each.
It's the same thing with the Zyklon album; Front cover, back cover, white innersleeve, nothing more.
Maybe the reason they call themselves Displeased is because they want us to be displeased?
