How is your interest holding up? :)Ok, I'm now four LPs in, and I'm enjoying it so far. When I first bought it, I had almost immediate buyer's remorse -- did I really need 6 LPs of this? I was interested in it and then talked myself out of it, but then Bethesda had it for 20% off last week, so I swung back and got it. And I had buyer's remorse today when I got laid off from some side part-time work that I do for extra bill payments and record-buying funds. That being said, it has a nice, moody feel to it. The piano at times actually reminds me of Jim Thirlwell's work on "The Venture Bros." with a strong percussive quality to it -- the Venture Bros. songs that have a more sinister, noir feel than the bombastic tunes.
I have some personal pros/cons for the FO3 vinyl box set, and that one was only 3 LP's & a 7". The first box set felt heavy on materials, but a bit light on content. For example, the booklet featured full-page cartoony artwork, but no liner notes at all about the composer or even the game itself.
There is an upcoming concert in LA on August 21st featuring the music of Gary Shyman (BioShock), along with some material by Fallout 3/4 composer, Inon Zur, and even an Elmer Bernstein guitar concerto. The theater site doesn't mention it, but Inon Zur will also be performing the Fallout 4 theme live at this show:

Im hoping its just burrs from the pressing and will disipate after a few plays. I all ready gave it a run through the rcm so fingers crossed. :(@static, so sorry to hear that, I know how much you were looking forward to this release. I hate when that happens. Did you get it local or mail order, can you request an exchange?

Might drop spacelab an email as well to see if this in a known issue with the pressing.
