WTF? My sister bought Rather Ripped today...

Spiritual Amnesia · 06.02.2006, 09:05 AM

i thought the release - date is on 13 June ?????

Inhuman · 06.02.2006, 09:08 AM

hmm, well that's the american/Canadian release date. Maybe it was released sooner elsewhere. Good on you though!

Hannah · 06.02.2006, 09:19 AM

Maybe it wasn't a legal copy. Certain people can get hold of cd's and dvd's before they are released and sell them for cheaper. I remember this because my mum did this with a Will Smith album for me because I couldn't wait (many years ago). However everyone just downloads now if they want music before the release date so I'm not sure. Maybe the release dates are different everywhere. Or your sister got very lucky. Where did she but it from?

Spiritual Amnesia · 06.02.2006, 09:20 AM

hmmmm..... i thought europe has the same release date......whatever
the european rather ripped cd has got a Bonus Track : Helen Lundeberg.

EDIT: she bought it in a commercial music-store

whorefrost · 06.02.2006, 10:15 AM

choice bonus track... i'm waiting to get it on wax

sonicl · 06.02.2006, 10:32 AM

The Euro edition has Helen Lundeberg as a bonus, but the UK edition has both of the 7" tracks as bonuses, while the Japanese version goes even further and adds a third bonus track in the shape of a "Psychedlic Mix" of Do You Beleive in Rapture.

The reason for this is that non-Americans are far more deserving of Sonic wonderousness than the Americans.

why dont they just put those tracks on ALL copies of the album??? i dont get it...

umjammer atomsk · 06.02.2006, 01:27 PM

I've read that albums cost more in countries foreign to america so the buyers expect more. I don't know.

that's the rationale, but it doesn't change the fact that Helen Lundeberg could have been readily subsituted for What A Waste or Jams Run Free.

qwerty · 06.02.2006, 01:34 PM

it's out today in Ireland
and the bonus tracks are Eyeliner and Helen Lundeberg

umjammer atomsk · 06.02.2006, 01:35 PM

I haven't heard either of them so I can't comment on the quality of the tracks.

king_buzzo · 06.02.2006, 02:13 PM

greenlight · 06.02.2006, 02:26 PM

Anyone want to show the back/disc/insert artwork please?

Spiritual Amnesia · 06.02.2006, 04:40 PM

umjammer atomsk · 06.02.2006, 04:55 PM

It looks like Kim has an apron on and Lee looks like Liam Neeson with a beard from what I can see in that tiny photo.

I just bought mine off play.com for £9! How cheap is that?! It says it's in stock too so it must be out in the uk already

alexscience · 06.02.2006, 05:44 PM

its ment to be out in the u.k on monday. my housemate works in a recordshop (musiczone) & they got theres delivered on thursday just gone, so they might be some under the counter copies (if you know what i mean) floatin around.

BushIsAPsycho · 06.02.2006, 06:33 PM

sleepin around is one of my favs. i also have grown to like do you believe in rapture? thurston's voice on that one is quite moving. i think that commercial store might've broken da law. cuz anyone can just record the tracks that are streaming on sy.com and burn em onto a mp3 cd.
