Murder City Devils to release vinyl box set

Contributed by ChadReligion. Posted by jesse on Saturday, January 17, 2009 at 12:00 PM (EST)

Seattle, WA's Muder City Devils have announced that they will be releasing a vinyl box set titled Feather Bed Whiskey Blanket that will contain their three full length albums and the Thelema EP. Says the band on their website:

Bundled in a custom made package with a button and string closure, each set will be hand-numbered and contain one of a kind photos, stencils, posters and other pieces unique to each set. Who knows, you might end up with rare promo photos, press stickers, outtake / live photos, studio notes, sketches, old set lists, old backstage passes, Gabe's electric bill … anything from the massive MCD archives that can fit into a flat 12″ box. Each package will have the four 12″ records on exclusive white vinyl, a totally unique set of bonus items, be hand-numbered and shrink wrapped air tight so nobody but nobody will know what's in there until you get it home and open it up. (We'll know, and we'll be keeping track.)

The band recently announced their reunion tour dates and announced reissues of their past full lengths.

what links MCD and Polar Bear Club...they both have me until the "singer" opens his mouth, then i start laughing.
MCD vocals sound like the angry, drunk guy who can't really fight but tries and PBC vocals sound like Oscar the Grouch yelling at Finch.

Or maybe a more intense Chuck Ragan with moments of Stephan Jenkins.

The whole "hand numbered" thing is really played out in the vinyl world. Though, unlike most vinyl packages, this has some interesting stuff.

hand numbered goes on in a lot more than just vinyl. i think they're only doing something like 250 copies of this one.

it wasn't what he said it was just the sheer geekliness

not even the geekliness cause obviously I'm sitting inside posting on a message board on a beautiful saturday afternoon but it was just such picture perfect stereotypicalsomethingoutofamovie geekliness. It made me uneasy.

I can get on board with this. I will say, the new Springsteen is aces. Let's collectively celebrate this release, as a people. The one complaint I have is that there was not a dead police officer on the cover of the record.

Also, how terrible is that Leathermouth band. It's like a sad joke. Leatherface > Leathermouth

Best track on the new Springsteen = Tomorrow Never Knows

I "sampled" one of them Leathermouth songs, and honestly liked it. Then, I downloaded the leak, and it ain't that bad. You just have to remove your mind from who is singing.

There's a Weakerthans sticker in the bathroom at one point too if I recall correctly (which I usually don't, for the record).

According to wikpedia, they are signed on for 39 more episodes. This show won't be ending anytime soon, which makes me a happy panda.

This looks awesome, wish these guys would stop pretending to be broken up and just do a real tour already.

Also, does it bug anybody else that very few of the posts on any given news story actually relate to that story?
