I ordered this from TER Mailorder, and it didn't come with any inserts or lyrics like the description claimed. Anyone know if it's supposed to have that stuff?

mine is sealed (like my souvenirs) ... and i didnt buy it at The End Records so i'll never know... sorry

i love listening to band vinyls but i dont want to listen to The Gathering ones... quite strange i may say... i think i prefer pure rock bands like Pearl Jam which are big vinyl lover and for which the music sounds perfectly

mmm... let's say The Gathering vinyls are just collector gems to me. that's all.

:o :o :o I actually sort of rediscovered Souvenirs when I put the LP for the first time on the turn table.. and I love the LP much more than the CD.. the sound is much warmer... (which makes me think I should get my hand on that nighttime LP aswell ;))

Maybe you should buy a 2nd one hoang ;) so you can keep one safe and use the other

These exact words.
With the added addition (gulp!) of HTMAP. It sounds like a different album mix, the difference is that radical! The TG LPs have to be another reason we love them more than most groups out there :flower:

the problem is i'm not that kind of lover able to buy twice or several times the same version LP ... even for my fave band, The Gathering... this is crazy and this costs money, dont you think?
to be music lover doesnt mean wasting money to me. sorry.

the point is i'm not only a music lover.

This makes me wonder if I should bother replacing from The End seeing as how others haven't received the lyrics.

How do the lyrics come? Are they on a separate sheet? Can anyone provide images?

Please help. :o

@hoang I was kidding... I hope one day you can meet someone who has th eLP so you can listen to it... simply to listen to thge same music with a different mastering and support (thus different sound)

Thanks for the images, Maksy!

Here's what I've got instead... it looks like your inserts are much higher quality than mine and I guess that's the difference. As far as I can see, your red lyric inserts hold the vinyl in them, while mine are just boring ol' white inserts, common to a lot of other records.

I don't even know if TER would be able to send me a new copy; it looks like nothing's missing, it's just that they have a different version for sale.

Image below.

So that's figured out, then. Now, anyone with lyrics in theirs remember if they ordered it online? I'm going to try again.

I decided to keep it after speaking to the TER mailorder people. They said they opened more copies and it was the same deal. I guess it was a misprinted run.

If I see the other version for a good price I might go get it and sell this one afterwards... we'll see.

I bought it at Paradiso last year. That's the best way.

It's always surprise when I buy something on internet,
I ordered Home from Czech e-shop and got The End version, I was glad, then I could bought also European version, they are a little bit different.
Once I ordered some TG's cassettes, I thought they were released by Century Media, but it was only a Polish licence (not good, however I don't how normal CM tapes look like...)

Yeah, I think the whole TER pressing is missing the lyrics, from the sounds of it.

I'll buy another at the show in May, unless something else strikes my fancy. Which it probably will. :lol:

Either way, we'll see.
