darth by tor Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 As Amazon and now Rush Backstage have CA up for pre-order for $19.99. taking into consideration the previous snippets that have hinted at "Suites" and "Epics" and the songtitles I we are going to get not only a FULL concept album but a DOUBLE!

EmotionDetector Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 That would be great...BUT...I doubt it. I'm pretty sure that if it were to be a double-album, it would be mentioned in the press releases. It's a pretty big selling point. I could be wrong...but that's what I think anyways.

Powderfinger Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 For that price should we assume there are some sort of extras? Or perhaps the packaging and booklet will be particularly elaborate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerxster Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Apparently it dropped to $17.97 at some point on amazon, because that's currently my pre-order price via the low price guarantee. I had pre-ordered it before the pre-ordering was stopped. Currently $19.61 on amazon.com. I doubt it'll be two discs, rather, the price will keep dropping. Or maybe.. there will be different versions? Basic and deluxe? Too soon to tell I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll keep fluctuating until the release date, and those of us that preorder will get the lowest, even if it goes back up at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checkster2112 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 2 discs would be great, but I think they'd be marketing it as such by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaked Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I just pre-ordered through amazon. $19.61 right now but that'll go down significantly. Plus I have $10 worth of gift cards to offset the price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Yeah, it'll be much cheaper than that many places and will certainly on sale at Best Buy when it's new but we also still don't know about a possible 5.1 edition or elaborate packaging or other things that could raise the price. I'll be honest though, I absolutely do care about how I spend my money but I get excited about buying new albums maybe 1-3 times a year now. CDs were $12-$15 even 20 or more years ago and they had far less music on them and I bought albums all the time then. When my favorite bands are only releasing new albums every 5 or more years I really don't give a shit whether it's $9.99 or $19.99. It's just negligible over that amount of time.

Merely Space Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 No mystery to the price; it's how they're funding orchestral accompaniment for the tour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sin City Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 It's a double album anyways. 60 minutes plus of music equates to 4 sides of vinyl at 15 minutes plus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USB Connector Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 It's once CD in a digipak that they're selling for 20$. Otherwise it would have been marketed that way. Just check best buy on launch, they normally have new releases for 5$ less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, it's the price for the fanny pack, an as-yet-unheard-of bit of bonus for people that pre-order. The album and all the other bonus stuff will come in a stylish blue fanny pack, suitable for jogging, walking around amusement parks, or rowing downriver.

Alexmai Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 It could have a behind the scenes DVD... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarizeMe Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Maybe they're gonna do what Porcupine Tree did with The Incident and split the discs to differentiate the Clockwork Angels suite and the non-canon tracks? Might be a possibility but I'm willing to bet that one of the formats is a DVD or BluRay with the 5.1 mix and a making of featurette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
