OT: Lateralus 2lp bootleg

MstrGhost · 10-27-2002, 02:48 PM

Just stay away from it! When I bought it I tought "hell, might be a promo since it will come one day, or might be a bootleg, anyway its cool to have on vinyl". Wrong! It'a a bootleg but... there's something about the sound that looks like crappy mp3 sourced swishhhh and... pauses between songs! Now thats a ruined album. It comes on a black sleeve with two stikers on the front one with "tool", the other with "lateralus", no copyright info (as in the cd pack without the plastic sleeve), and vinyl labels have the same design. Sides aren't totally recorded as with the official"undertow"(as far as i remember). Dont even buy it in the intention of listening to it in vinyl "and hell for being a bootleg".

hah, i own two Machina vinyl bootlegs, just for the sake of owning them. But they're both such obvious bootlegs.

So peeps, watch out when you're buying a 1337 machina vinyl: the picture disc and the totally clear vinyl promos are fake.

I still don't have the clear vinyl boot

. I love the little typo in the picture disc, but hell! At least that's a nice bootleg. Anyway near my univ I can get almost anything in picture disc... "Ride the lightning" anyone?

Hey MstrGhost, did you just get that off Ebay like 2 or 3 weeks ago? I saw one and was going to put in a bid until I decided to wait it out and see how many more popped up.

Sorry you got screwed man.That sucks.

Nah, i bought it in a local store (at least in the hope it was a well done bootleg, i just wanted that on vinyl, that's all). But in amt I've seen more people saying the same about it (gaps between tracks, etc) so, its the same shit.
