Ayreon-Transitus

[Bravado]

The Final Guessing Games #13 - #16.
But more important, the announcement from Arjan the pre-ordering will start as of next week.
Nothing mentioned on the type of formats yet, but based on his latest releases, it is very likely also 5.1 will become available.

Yep Earbook with surround, 50 Euro's

mmm new Aryeon. Thanks for all the posts.

I looked at purchasing it right now and it appears shipping to the US, or atleast where I am in Southern California is 25 Euros ???? Talk about shipping costs.
Anyone know if there is a US branch selling this ?

It says 5 CD's but if you read the detailed description it does include
"DVD with bonus footage which includes a behind the scenes video, a videoclip, trailer, 5.1 and 2.0/24 bit audio versions of 'Transitus'"

Not happening for me. I would be very interested in a bluray or even DVD only release though.

I feel your pain. I have no interest in any of the CDs/extras either. Unfortunately there is no reasonably priced offering with 5.1 this time. At least this is a 2 CD album and Arjen puts quite a lot of work into it.

For those curious about the actual content...

I just pre-ordered the ear book version, Arjen's surround mixes are always great, can't wait!

I can't find a good link for Canada but I think this is where USA customers get best deal(49.99) if you want the whole thing and Comic book included:

Not really. It isn't cheaper after including shipping.

Sure is, compared to the European Mascot store! That's where I had my preorder.

Aah. I was comparing it to the Amazon price.

Oi. I like the live Ayreon Blu-ray I have. The Source album, not as much. I can't see spending $40 on an artist I'm not confident about.

 

[Marplot]

Fair enough, The beauty of Ayreon is if you don't dig a song, odds are the next one has an all new feel and a different singer.
Plus Tom Baker narrating ...
