hope this gets picked up in US so cheaper for us yanks... Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds: B-Sides & Rarities Part II will be released on Double Vinyl, Double CD and Streaming on 22 October. The album was compiled by Warren Ellis and Nick Cave and includes 27 rare and unreleased tracks from 2006 to 2020. B-Sides & Rarities Part I and Part II will also be released together as a Limited Edition Deluxe 7LP Box Set. B-Sides and Rarities Part I was compiled by Mick Harvey. B-Sides & Rarities (Part I & II)
I ordered the full two volume LP set from the UK as box sets don't last long. The bought first CD volume from many years ago. Looking forward to a full vinyl set.
Is the 7-lp box-set exclusive to the Nick Cave store? After Brexit is expensive to order from the UK to the EU, so I rather avoid it if I can.
wow, not cheap. Gonna wait a little bit to see if more info comes out about whether it'll be available without Brexit pricing/shipping... If anyone learns anything beyond their own theories, please post.
The 7-LP box is listed as a limited edition, but no mention of being exclusive to the Nick Cave store. A must-have for me, so will be searching over the next few days to see if it appears on other websites. Shipping to me was £41 on the Nick Cave webstore which I'd prefer not to pay.
Im pretty sure it will be available elsewhere, hopefully. Nice that they will release this on vinyl too, even the boxset that consists of both volumes. I think the booklet wasn't mentioned much at all yet, no number of pages just "exclusive sleeve-notes". Interesting really and all of this was something I wasn't quite expecting to be re-released (I only have the the original B-Sides & Rarities on original cd-set and the remastered-set) maybe have to think of getting the vinyl-set.
7-LP box now showing as sold out on his site. Glad I jumped on this first thing this morning. $250 USD hurts, but I'll love this set for years...
@Neonbeam It must be coming to other places, if not even limited still, available for example here (found from reddit): Nick Cave B-Sides Raritties Deel 2 1988 - 2020 7LP Let me know mate if you find it elsewhere..might have to preorder and secure a copy.
Those Dutch dealers never fail to amaze me! Now I'm pretty positive this will come to other stores as well.
It’ll be available somewhere else. How many copies might have sold? 500? 1000 tops? I don’t think that would cover the costs of producing such a set.
I got the email too but wanted to think about it...LMAO. I'm hoping it shows up at some U.S. outlets. I still have two titles to add to complete the reissue campaign. I had to slowly hunt down the EU pressings because many of the US pressing were pressed at United.
I missed the online order too, but this is definitely going to be available through other retailers here in the UK. Revolution Records in Walsall have announced on Facebook that they’re stocking it, so I’m sure it will be listed in other places very soon
Resident Music has the vinyl box for pre-order - £157.99, so that's further evidence that it will be more widely available nick cave - b-sides & rarities (part i & ii) - resident
Hmm, I love Nick, but I barely ever play the first B-Sides collection. I just have it as a curio. For me it doesn't have repeated listening appeal. This is about £100 more than I'd be willing to pay for the vinyl, haha.... ah, well, I'll have a listen digitally when it comes out.
That's why I always buy collections of things like b-sides, outtakes or demos as CD. For me, vinyl is for albums I want to play from beginning to end.
Yeah, good call. I may well end up going that route with this one. EDIT: I also always found the artwork and design of Vol.1 (and the new one) beyond dull! Haha... so there's to factor in as well.
