I have the first Waxwork release of this in the fancy box, but that pressing was really noisy. This reissue also came with a 12" EP of newly recorded "lost cues" entitled Lost Cues: The Thing

So I didn't get through this set when I first tried about 10 days ago...and I won't tonight, but I'm glad I got it.

Not as good as Pale Emperor but a lot better than Heaven Upside Down.

It was interesting to see what Shooter Jennings could do with Manson.

I'm sure I have some rip of this from the PC version of the game years ago...but those 128kbps mp3s are long gone. Glad to finally have a good version of this to listen to.

I didn't need yet another copy of this one - but I have a hard time saying no to 45 RPM cuts.

Picked up this box set as I didn't have any of the releases - seemed to be an easy way to get Madvillainy and Donuts - the other 2 albums are good, too.

I don’t know why I didn’t give this album a shot when it was first released but now that I finally own it on vinyl (thanks, Magnolia!) I find myself spinning it all the damn time.
I really loved their first 2 albums and then they released Signs Of Light.

Like most people, I missed out on the RSD release a few years back (holy shit it was only last year) - glad this got a reissue. Played it to death in high school...and hadn't heard it since. I have no idea where that CD is now.

I have the hard-to-find original 1992 UK pressing - this one sounds much better.
