Order Received

I just got my package from MerchNow for my Chelsea Grin Bundle, Crimson Armada Bundle and Miss May I bundle. And as always from MerchNow, I am impressed and happy how these things came.

Though I did make a mistake with the orders with Chelsea Grin as it was being released in july, while the rest will be released in june, I didn't see this and because of it had to wait an entire month extra, but completely my error, I thought it said june.

Here is a close up on the actual CD's. And just to note, CD's are always better than downloading songs, for one, you don't get the lyric book, a cool case, and the feel of supporting small bands (well they have grown since I have). But most of all, is quality, downloaded songs must be ripped from the CD and so are not exactly the same, a CD is as high quality as it gets, ripped songs are not completely the same, but that is an issue with how files are converted and extracted. So basically if you have a surround sound system, having a CD will let you have a real nice high quality experience.

The CD's come in these covers (Chelsea Grin and Crimson Armada) which protects the plastic CD case, which is just nice so it is like a nice display for the cases. The Miss May I CD is a one that is all card and plastic and opens up for 2 CD's which I both already looked over.

I will be doing a review on the new Chelsea Grin Album and Miss May I albums.

NICE! Man, I don't even know what kind of merch my band will put out...

As is, what do you consider selling out, Sketchar? I'm askin' 'cuz it's a personal question for me that I've already answered (Gene Simmons is the answer, by the way), but I do often wonder what others think it is as well.

Like merchandise...that's cool, right? I've got a few places lined up to help out with my band when it comes to that (only beefy tees, ONLY BEEFY TEES!), but still...I do wonder.

Agreed, i prefer the real deal to poorly converted mp3s plus you're supporting the artist, good on you.

nice, you are right, CD's do give high quality sound when compared to downloaded MP3's and such. Vinyl records too!

I agree CD's are better.
