Please just release an all-inclusive Djali/Spun/Chicago Kid box set and then you can do whatever projects you want until you die.

Take a look in the mirror. You're the one constantly bitching and berating people. And no, I'm calling you completely clueless. Not others, just you. There's miserable twats... and then there's you. Can we get a better class of troll on this forum? One that knows how to troll properly.

Now go suck Billy's little weasel and buy your Siddhartha vinyls, you know you want to.

You'll probably say how you're not going to buy this release, but just going to do it in secret to go with your Aegea vinyls and "I support Trump" memorabilia.
Why are you responding to such a transparently obvious troll?

Because it's fun and something entertaining might as well come out of this Siddhartha release.

P.S. Can Billy replace the audiobook reading with his own reading, but do it all in his high fragile falsetto voice?

Having experiences with the two Teargarden vinyls I would expect at least one of the five discs to receive damaged too.

So you're not a troll, just a stalker. Gotcha. Glad you clarified.
You and Monte will make great friends.

Now go buy your $300 Monuments vinyl to get a Billy Christmas card. It can sit nicely between your Aegea and Siddhartha vinyls below your Billy shrine.

P.S. Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump

aegea (limited, numbered, signed, coloured vinyl) did very well. and i guess zuzu's made a lot of money on those green vinyl monuments records too.
Problem is, the novelty of it has worn off. AEGEA worked because it was a surprise release and no one knew what to expect from the sound. The Monuments to an Elegy colored vinyl worked because he rode the (very minimal) excitement surrounding that album, and had never really sold autographed stuff before.

On the other hand, all the crap he's released since then has gone belly up. Those "super special" screen grabs from Vieuphoria never sold out, and it looks like the vinyl he just posted are not flying off the shelves. In terms of Siddhartha, he's high if he thinks this will sell. As other posters pointed out, a five record set will cost a pretty penny, and even the most ardent Corgan supporters admitted the Siddhartha event was a pretty big failure. At worse, it was farcical Spinal Tap level parody. At best, it was a noble but failed experiment.

Yep, if this was a few years ago it would have been out within days. 2016s indifference makes me sad as I'd love to hear it, but can't afford/refuse to buy potentially faulty vinyl.

The video runs one and a half hour! So I expect it to be the full double album vinyl version.

Already on this then new vinyl you can hear some strong crackle noise. Normal vinyl has rates of soot to lower the groove noise. So that's another "benefit" you get with Billy's colorful vision of collecting vinyls.

Only 5760 views at this exclusive posted copy of AEGEA in more than two years...

maybe im just a peculiar and eccentric minority... but i actually really enjoy AEGEA, way the fuck more than oceania or monuments or any of this other questionable trash he's been releasing. I regret not buying the vinyl. But seriously... for blowing people's minds, especially while tripping on mushrooms or lsd, the album as a "soundtrack" to a muted planet earth documentary... just... woah... it's incredible. HOWEVER... when the acid trip is over all your left with is this shitty tea house acoustic cover gig version of BiCorg

AEGEA is pretty much the only thing he has done that has interested me at all in probably about a decade now.

I have no problem with the concept of Sidhartha. I don't fault him at all for trying something. It was however a totally failed experiment and should not be released. I could see maybe if it was part of a natural progression of synth projects he did maybe putting it out, but like everything else he abandoned this little obsession too quickly and this seems like barrel scrapings to me.

So they are forcing you to pay a markup for a shitty synth that they are simply forcing into this package with nothing unique about it.

They probably bought cases of these things thinking they would sell them in the tea shop and now just want to get rid of them.

Not a fan of having to buy stupid extraneous shit to get a record.
