i just got the new cd extra volume 1 in the mail. Well the booklet is all messed up. Some of the pages are like, cut short. I mean i am flipping through and then there is like half a page with the bottom missing and the top cut off, like it was stapled in wrong. So some of the writing and pictures are cut off at the top and there’s an inch of nothing at the bottom… Did anybody else get this problem with their copy (if anybody here even got this cd)?
Mine was fine. Got it the day of release, no problems… aside from the bit about there being possibly TWO more rehashes aside from the “Extra” compilations.
Good stuff. Nice to finally have the Adrian Sherwood mix of “Don’t Blow Your Top” on CD.
My booklet is fine. Got it at HMV.
I really enjoy this compilation, and some of the material was new to me. I’d never heard M+F 244 before, and I was blown away by that. The whole first disc is diverse enough to listened to as an album. The second disc is a bit boring, but a necessary archive of those mixes, I suppose.
Agreeing with you there. Hell, the only reason I bought the damned thing was for the Z-Records version of “Seig Seig.” That said, the first disc is GREAT. I love basically anything “UAIOE” and back; thus the first half or so of disc 1 is fucking gold. “Virus” is pretty good, as well, and even though I’ve already got the KMFDM/TKK split single, I can tolerate another copy of “Naive.”
Second disc was a little more… forgettable. The only major standout tracks to me are “Sex on the Flag” and “Split [Mirrorball Mix].” And I’ll be quite blunt… the “Money” single is a complete waste of time. Though “Bargeld” is one of my favorite KMFDM tracks, all of its remixes are pretty lame at best.
Still, worth every penny, if just for the first disc alone.
