Good catch. I had been seeing the redux often and felt it was a bit misleading Odd the didn’t announce it ahead of time but perhaps they were waiting for the vinyl backlog to clear up.
MoV do represses for certain albums on different colours, which is dependent on their licensing agreement. For example, their reissues of various Roadrunner Records albums did receive represses over the years of Nailbomb, Madball, Annihilator, Fear Factory, etc.
Actually I'm thinking my MOV Jar of Flies/SAP was a repress- I got it brand new in 2020 for $28. Glad I grabbed it then, it has since skyrocketed in value lol.
You're lucky. I missed this and now it's going for north of $150 bucks. And I LOVE Jar of Flies...Ugh
Seconded. Weird that there does not seem to be any info out there anywhere, but this is not one to sleep on.
Following, curious what remaster will bring. Even the original LP had a dense muffled sound, the mids just don't have much bite.
Three years ago my local shop had MoV sale and I got: Alice In Chains - Dirt Alice In Chains - JOF/Sap Alice In Chains - Unplugged Stone Temple Pilots - Purple Stone Temple Pilots - Tiny Music.. Dream Theater - Images & Words Mad Season - Above Those were 19,90€ / each...
That op link brings me to some "Dirt Music" movie. And I can't find any info or any preorder for the release.
Sorry I can't help you with that. The link still works for me and it shows that I did the pre-order yesterday. Possible because you are outside the US? I do note again though that other than the link, I could not find a listing for it when searching Amazon. Not sure how things really work with Amazon, but I seem to recall previous listing that somehow appear yet are not findable with a site search.
Search: 2 results found for "Alice In Chains - Dirt 30th Anniversary" Anyone know anything about this?? Alice In Chains - Dirt 30th Anniversary LIMITED EDITION RELEASE PREORDER
I just got a reply from NTX Vinyl on YouTube. Re this 'Dirt' release he says: 'Yup! It's coming. The actual "announce date" is August 12th (not the release date, despite what Amazon says - they posted it without permission. Shocker). Release date is September 23rd. I am planning to have tons of copies avail. Stay tuned.' As per the 30th anniversary link above, looks like 23rd Sept is correct date..
No more amazon page. That other store above says those standard and limited editions are slated for Sept 23rd, so I bet if this really is official the amazon listing was a "whoops!" and Legacy/Sony will roll out the marketing this month for a Sept release. Facelift vinyl reissue had plenty of promo way before release, and the official Alice socials haven't uttered a thing about Dirt yet, even though those pages are still very active. So, great news it looks like a 30th remaster is likely on the way! Gonna take a few more minutes than that initial Aug 12th listing had posted, though.
Put in a pre-order last night while the Amazon link was still active. Hopefully it carries over and they honor it (and the posted $32.98 price).
Well, I've been keen to have Dirt on a 2 LP set for many years. Once a working link is back up, I'm there.
I am wondering what the deluxe edition will provide this time around! Probably likely there's nothing to add that isn't already in the Music Bank set. If we're lucky, a live dvd this time? Interested to see...
It's great timing because I've almost pulled the trigger a couple times this past month at $100+ and on a MOV version that probably would have been better as a double LP.
