Best Buy exclusive????
 
The I-Tunes exclusive track "Burning Shame" is showing up on BestBuy.com as track 13. Are they getting a run of these also or is it a misprint?

^mother of ass. Don't tell me I'm gonna have to buy a 2nd copy of this?

floaty 06.08.2009 09:19 AM

If the UK iTunes download is anything to go by 'burning shame' is an instrumental of 'what we know'... or demo maybe... The guitar tracks seem to have more delay/reverb on them...

Hmm... that seem's irrelevant. You guys sure are welcoming.

That movie would have been a lot better as a hardcore porn.

Yr really a new guy? I figured it was just floatingslowly with a new name.

floaty 06.08.2009 10:36 AM

afraid so... I am a newbie... lurked for a while as it goes, but gave in and joined....

noisereductions 06.08.2009 11:09 AM

ah. Welcome. Okay then my real response is: Even if it is only an instrumental version, there's plenty of completists (like myself) who cringe knowing that some non-collector can walk into a local BB and have an SY song that I don't have.

negative8ball 06.08.2009 11:50 AM

It's like the Starbucks thing all over again... might not be a CRUCIAL track, but it's a necessary track... [smirk]

LifeDistortion 06.08.2009 12:12 PM

It might be by ordering it through thier website only. Best Buy are notorious for saying one thing on thier website and another thing at the store.

floaty 06.08.2009 12:12 PM

fs... Sorry... had no idea it was yr pet name.... I bow down to the awsomeness of your awesomeness and ask that you accept my humble apologies etc etc...

nr: I agree completely... I've spent loads over the years trying to be a completeist... but have to live with the fact that I'll never own 'everything'....

wellcharge 06.08.2009 12:16 PM

i was thinking i didn't care about the bonus track, but if it's an instrumental of what we know then i'll definitely buy that version of the album

oh, no need for apologies!

yr obviously an individual of wealth and taste.

and...I never really liked that pet name much anyways. the "y" gives the false impression that I'm nice.

you, however, wear it well.

SONIK DETH!!

Bollocks_to_Pop 06.08.2009 02:14 PM

What I really want to know is why this track wasn't part of the Buy Early Get Now with Matador? I mean the two extra tracks they sent were nice, but why would they make us buy another copy of the album sold somewhere else?

noisereductions 06.08.2009 03:10 PM

what WERE the two tracks? I only knew about the long version of "Catholic Block"

jennthebenn 06.08.2009 04:15 PM

The live "Silver Rocket" which doesn't appear on the Battery Park LP.

negative8ball 06.08.2009 04:48 PM

Wow - I'd missed the "Catholic Block" demo - thanks for the heads up!

Apparently this Best Buy/ITunes bonus track IS going to be offered to all the BEGN people eventually. ITunes has exclusive rights to it for about 90 days then Matador will send us all a FLAC/MP3 or whatever you want link to it.

Silver Rocket LIVE @ Battery Park is on the Japanese pressing of the LIVE disc that comes with the Sonik Tooth Box but it is NOT on the vinyl pressing Matador is giving as a bonus to BEGNers.

automatic bzooty 06.08.2009 06:09 PM

fuckity. i am not buying any records from best buy. ):<

noisereductions 06.09.2009 08:17 AM

Intead of stray mp3's, Matador should have given us a digital 2nd disc of like 12 tracks with downloadable artwork.

anyway, ETERNAL bsides so far:

Pay No Mind
No Garage
Silver Rocket (live)
Catholic Block (demo)
Burning Shame

beside the fact that matador gave us FLACS and not just mp3s :D I think they might have some surprises for begners later on...

COOL thanks for scoping that out! Now I won't bother.

Was it a jewel case or digipack?

also..just realized my typo...i "was" a best buy...but not anymore..i'm no longer a best buy in pennsylvania..please don't hold it against me.

noisereductions 06.09.2009 01:18 PM

dudes, it's NOT a digipack. It's just folded cardboard that the CD slides into vinyl record style.

A digipack is what LIVE AT THE CONTINENTAL CLUB or LIVE IN VENLO or GOO DEMOS came in. It's a piece of cardboard with a plastic jewel case thingy to hold the CD. Don't get it twisted.

True true. What's out there now replicates the vinyl in a CD size slip cover. I think the jewel case versions are coming later.

Was there ever a way to get the Record Store Day tracks as FLACs, too? I didn't see any, but would have liked that (without HAVING to shell out for the Japanese pressing - which may eb the solution in the end ANYWAYS... [smirk])

I don't know if they'll post the Records Store Day Tracks on the BEGN site for the Eternal, but for the last Stephen Malkmus BEGN they eventually the b-Sides from the Record Store Day only 10 inch he released that year.

There was also a link with the first email about the "upcoming sale" at the SY store for Ticket Purchasers... it had a bonus track too (Brave Men Run (live, Chicago 1985))... I'd think that counts... (unless it's from somewhere/someTHING else - but I don't recognize it)

hmm. I didnt remember this one.

But see? Put all these together eventually, and it should be a downloadable bonus disc.

pokkeherrie 06.09.2009 06:35 PM

The next BEGN bonus track is called "Machine" according to that guy from Matador who posts here.
