Trax! Box Q & A

I, actually just called them. The guy who answered the phone seemed a little confused. Prob an intern. Said via website was best way to contact them.

He didn’t mention anything about proof until I brought it up. I asked how do I prove I have it? He was like… “uhhhhh…”. I’ll wait to hear back from them on how to prove.

edit: cleo contacted me. they will want photo of receipt.

Too funny there

i just listened to Self Annoyed again. now there’s no question that the yelling and low volume/intro vocals are al. but man, guys, i tell you. it flipping sounds JUST like ohgr in the verses. The 2nd and 3rd more so than the first. I trust you guys’ opinion more than my own on this subject, but damn it sounds like him.

For those who purchased the set: please contact Cleo for a replacement disc one.

If you already have the set, they will ask you for some info and your shipping address.

For anyone who ordered through their website, they will be holding orders and shipping them with the replacement disc.

They are estimating 7-10 days for shipping everything out.

Thanks!

Photo of the receipt? That the only way?

What about taking a picture of the box set with your email address in the picture?

I filled out the online contact form on the Cleo site and they responded in less than 5 mins. I asked if I could send them a copy of my bank statement, with the other charges/info marked out for my privacy, and they said that would work.

Then I asked, well what if I got this as a gift and didn’t have the receipt or bank statement? I’ll let you know what they say, but they’re definitely responsive.

Is there anything in the book (that came with the Trax! Box) besides Brian Shanley’s photos that’s new or informative?

self annoyed is def. al on vox. listened on a good pair of headphones a few times last night. it does sound like he’s doing an ogre impression though! I look at it like him trying out different vocal styles pre-LORAH period. this is a vocal style that didn’t stick, obviously, but his shouting did…I almost wonder if the shouting was recorded at a different point…

Yes, there is text by an Athan Maroulis. Kind of a long article on Ministry’s wax trax history that is spread throughout. I gave it a quick read and thought it was cool that the author gave props to the “helpful site prongs.org/ministry” for a set list - and somewhere else. Again, I didn’t read it too closely, but his story of how RevCo came to be named was a new one for me. Or I’ve heard so many versions of the story I forget which one I like to go with.

Edit: I’m sure some prongers know Maroulis: http://www.mtv.com/artists/athan-maroulis/biography/

The Cleo guy asked me for a photo. He didn’t specify that it needed to be the receipt (which I don’t think I have anymore). I took a picture of Disc One with my address. Hope that’s enough.

So does this mean there is an unreleased version of Where You At Now on the corrected copy?

yea - you guys are right, i’ll just take a photo of the box with my address.

I just ordered my copy…I was going to hold off, but all the great reviews here convinced me to get it now…so thanks…

One question: is the Cold Life 12" version the full version or the edited version from Twelve Inch Singles?

I asked them about that. The person I spoke to said they needed to ask the person in charge of the project and should let me know shortly.

It is the edited version from Twelve Inch Singles.

Does anyone have any idea how many copies were produced in total?
In the UK RSD list it said the amount was 500, but I know for a fact that there were only 20 copies available to get in the entire UK!

The RSD site claimed a run of 2000.

I replied to your message before I saw this thread - I’ll still dig around for the receipt, just in case.

This just in from Cleo:

Regarding track 13 on the same disc, “Where Are You At Now” (as opposed to “Where You At Now” from Twitch) is not a mistake and is exactly as it is labeled in the master hard drive we received from Al. It’s another version of Nature Of Love that may have been set to be released at some point under that title, but never was.
