ok guys, been of the forum because I had to work on getting everything ready for the launch
I’ll try and answer as many questions in this post
* Yes, there are territory restrictions. We do Europe and Mondo does North America. This has little to with any of the labels involved. The right holders across the world made this call.
Nothing we can do about, pure and simple. This is the first OWS release where we faced restrictions, it was bound to happen at some point. There is a reason this is the first time it comes out on vinyl. Everybody involved fought for years to be able to bring this out finally… this is where the boys get separated from the men.
* The above is nothing to stress about since you can trade, ask an overseas contact, discogs, etc… I don’t think that anybody who really wants the version they can’t technically buy has been stopped by the above. Man up and get busy! Pick up extra copies and start trading-selling. Just don’t flip… flipping causes herpes.
* No, this is not part of the Static Club membership for all the reasons above
* There are 2000 red valentine editions (aka the standard edition) and 1500 Deluxe editions. IMO plenty to go around for Europe. This is a TOP soundtrack we wanted to make it available to as many people as the license permitted.
No re-pressings on these. You snooze, you loose. What’s left of the Valentine’s edition will go to shops in the whole of Europe. (but not before March) . Deluxe is a website exclusive.
* There is only ONE place to get it and that’’s
www.onewaystatic.com
* price is slightly higher than the typical OWS release because of the extras and the license fee (never have I paid so much to do a release, but it was worth every penny)
* No we don’t have the Mondo version and they don’t have ours. No Light In The Attic does not have our versions. Otherwise we’d breach our respective contracts.
* Static Club members worldwide should check their emails, if you did not get an email regarding Cannibal Holocaust then contact Sara asap!
* No, there will be no cassette version, we did not get a license for it
* Which version(s) you like best, ours or Mondo's purely comes down to taste. I think they all look sweet and all labels have outdone themselves.
* The reason releases often go up at a random time is because we are working on these things up to the last minute and are never sure if there will be last minute problems etc.
Giving you an exact time and then not making it would set the world on fire (you know how people can loose it)
* Facebook is home to some of the lowest douchebags to walk this planet. Some comments are pure evil.
* If there is one release you buy this year… make it this one. Whatever version or label you buy it from! All the fuzz you are hearing about it is 100% correct. There is a reason that the 3 top cult soundtracks labels are joining forces in a global effort on this one.
love you
