I just received a reply from NO. The cheaper option includes the 10" plus a special edition of the magazine in English, with mainly older music-related interviews + the Motorpsycho section. The other more expensive option contains the 10" plus the standard issue of NO, which is in Norwegian and contains more pages.
But why are there two different prices for what looks like the same? Plus the description claims that postage is included in the price, which it isn't…
Terje Brekkstads kosmiske reise?!
Great gig, but the sound at the front was muddy, and Snah's guitar was painfully loud. I hope they tweak the sound for tonight's show. I'm bringing earplugs for the first time in my life…
For the first time ever I decided to pass on the limited colored version. Not only does it cost 100 kroner more than the standard black edition, but I also have to pay an extra 139 in postage. It's just not worth it. I have pre-ordered a copy at Apollon in Bergen, who have tried to get in contact with Rune to hear if they could send some colored records (they haven't replied yet).
I picked up my copy today. Haven't had time to play it yet, but it looks beautiful!
Oh, that's a bummer. I ordered my copy the minute it was posted on FB, so I'm all set.
It still says "In stock" when I visit the AGCR site…
Wow! Worth every penny. It looks stunning, and the performance is just mind-blowing.
I chose the "NOK 1400" option, which according to the Funde site means gold vinyl and an unsigned numbered certificate. It turns out I got a signed one – are all of the 300 first copies signed after all? Good news for me, a bummer for those who paid NOK 1600…
Pretty intimate venue
Fantastic show!! Best I've seen in years. Heartattack Mac was 10-15 minutes of continuous goose bumps.
Why won't Soothe be re-released? Demon Box was.

All this complaining everywhere about everything.
I see. I guess you have an original, too…
Do you really think it's so unreasonable to complain about missing artwork and lyrics? I bet Kim Hiorthøy isn't too happy that the buyers only get part of the work he did for the album.

Of course it's a good thing that this repress sounds better (according to you), but that's not my point at all. And what does it matter how the vinyl "looks"? I don't listen with my eyes. Neither do I have any problems with extra/different letters and signs in the runout area. That just shows who pressed and mastered the record.
What I do care about is the fact that I am missing out on the crucial info and artwork that's on the inner sleeves, and if that doesn't make the whole package feel cheap, I don't know what does.
Also, I don't see any problem with stiff inner sleeves. If you know what you're doing it's easy to get the record out without scratching it, and I always have a stack of new polylined inners ready for use anyway.
What Stickman should do here is to press a new run of inner sleeves and mail them out to everyone who has ordered the repress from them. Plain and simple.

I've been waiting for a vinyl reissue of this for years, since this is the only MP release I (for some reason) never bought when it was released. Why in God's name didn't Stickman keep the printed inner sleeves?!? They even said on the FB page that this repress would be identical to the 2006 release.
Cheap (as in cheap looking) reissues with incomplete artwork should NOT happen in 2016! Especially when we're not getting a heads-up.
