they also despise ebay for that same reason. people buying the records as soon as they are available then selling them on for a large profit.
they are very much into making things perfect in terms of the artwork etc.
they are touring the us now, or did they just finish?

i know what you're saying, but i was just reading that they were very demanding about this particular record, not only in terms of artwork (which is very understandable), but also about how much of a percentage they would be getting from the sales (which is also understandable, but a bit contradictory to the "we're in it for the music" approach they seem to take), so it's not like they're sacrificing that much in the way of how much they're actually making. especially since these limited releases usually cost upwards of $30-$50 USD.
they just finished touring the US.
