It's being shipped today. Got an e-mail saying it's on its way. Let us know what you think of it This quirky little video trailer has been circling around online, I'm not sure it means a lot since there are long previews of two of the tracks available already, but it's kinda cool.

As I wrote in an other post actually I dont find the way to it, but I just listen 10 mins from the album at once, so I think I need time to listen at 4-5 times, but by the first experience I dont really feel any motivitaion for that... But If im thinking after nowaday I dont feel motivation for listening any music generally, so... Try it!

ohh, ok. Well played sir What do you think of the album? Well... when the snare drums began showing up from the 3:00 mark I felt a sceptical look on my face begin to appear. Promising beginning though! Now, I'm listening to it quickly again.... Just got up to 4:19 with that lovely 4/4 groove from Balazs.. and that's enough for me to press stop! I"ll give it a proper whirl later... For now, I'll stick to Medamaya thanks

Haha, its really dividing opinions isn't it... I actually like the moment where the jazzy drumming becomes that standard 4/4, sort of got my head nodding which meant that first track didn't get all that tedious which I was afraid it might do at first. I think the saxophone sounds great on the next couple of shorter tracks. I hope its not the sort of album I like at first but lose faith in the more I listen to it.

troll, the label seems really upset about your upload. HAve you considered doing something to mitigate the problem?

yeah, 3-4 emergency uploads having you considered deleting the post since the Label and Merzbow himself seem to be really angry about it? I mean, Ive talked with RareNoise Records and they told me that they asked for it to be removed. Alec Empire seems to be really angry as well with this situation. And even though i support the idea behind you putting it up there, i also understand that the approach we take is illegal and if they ask about it, everyone should be considered about the artists wishes, especially if they are asking directly.

Btw, the post is "removed" but smart people can find the way on the blog to download it all... oh thats ok and all but i really think you shouldnt be offering any alternatives to this particular download (not even in secret). Just to avoid any sort of legal complications about it and all. And to keep artist and label happy too i guess. Also i think that the final straw of the situation was saying thank you for the oportunity and all of that stuff. Thats basically the equivalent of stealing something and then hitting them in the face with it... repeteadly and to a pulp. Maybe for future reference you might want to avoid any sort of contact between labels or artists and the buisness going on at the blog you have there. Its very disrespectful of their work.

Yes, but then thats wont be the MerzBlog, just an sold-out blog....
We played the same run with Soleilmoon with Merzbient, there was a panic for a few weeks and what happened? Box is sold out, reissue is fantastic... (Btw could somebody rip it? hahahaha)

I guess it depends on the label more than the artists since Merbow has generally been not all too happy about the blog in general. Just relying the info as it wad given to me, more or less. ;D
