heavyharmonies Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Given the recent controversy about a member here trying to gouge people for their CDs, I told the band that the best way to counter this was to cut the legs out from under this person by publicly offering them directly from the band: Australia: $20 AUS - shipping included Worldwide: $25 AUS - shipping included Message the band through their myspace account to arrange purchase: http://www.myspace.com/mrscary100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharatan Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 ha, same case like poetic justice, when members here tried to sell copies for $200+ although the band was selling it for $9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zacharyamelie Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I don't understand bidding for 450$ when within the item description the Ebay seller had a direct like to the bands My Space page. If a band is still around or even non existent, yet they have a My Space page odds are the cd can be made available for much, much, much cheaper. Odd?!?!

Numbers were low because only a handful of people have asked about a cd in the time Mr Scary have been on myspace , no use making thousands if nobody buys them !!

stormspell Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 It sounds good, but a limited pressing of 100 most likely means it is a pro-printed CDR. Just saying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pressed silver discs. I asked just to make sure. -Dan Actual silver-pressed (replicated)... or diamond-silver bottom CDR (duplicated), which people are claiming are 'silver-pressed' these days? Very curious because I would like to buy one if it is a real replicated CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavyharmonies Posted February 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 My question to the band: Quick followup: I'm assuming these are factory-pressed silver CDs, not home-burned CD-Rs. This is an important factor for many people. Please confirm. Thanks, -Dan Their response: Hi Dan Yeah 100% factory-pressed silver cd's Understand we get that question alot ! We didn't like the way some people do cd's eg: Time Warp records etc... Keeping it melodic Seems pretty clear to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormspell Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Cool! I only asked coz it would cost arm and leg to make 100 replicated cds, if any pressing plants are offering such low quantity at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Studboy Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I got mine in the mail today, very nice release! Can't wait to give it a spin at work tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstoyz Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Ditto re: the other positive compliments.......Mr. Martens has been doing a very nice job serving as point man for the sale and distribution of this CD.....BTW, it really rocks! This is the type of hard rock that I'd love to see on the shelves at retail stores vs. most of the modern rock bands (some exceptions, of course). It's a bit of a pity IMO that more people, at least for right now, won't be able to enjoy this band's music.....Jeff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Just a question... do you need to have a myspace page to get this? Just tried to send a message then but it's blocked by work filter.

Will try again at home, but it's not a myspace-only thing is it? not sure 100% sure, although i do recall them saying something to the effect of sending a PM thru myspace if you were interested in buying the cd. surely they'd answer an email though....

JC_AOR Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 So it says in the liner notes that this is a New Zealand band. Could this be the best hard rock band to ever come out of new Zealand??? Also interesting that one of the past members was also in Love N' Rebellion. Got my copy of the CD today and will have a listen later on.
