... well, at least for his main projects, that is.
I got a copy of the Japanese limited No Sleep Till Bedtime with the City demos yesterday (just the CD, not the box though), along with the infamous Mikazuki In Rock compilation which features the ever-elusive "Idom"... and a stupid plastic robot.
Almost the best part of the story is that a friend of mine bought them used (condition is mint for both, still) for me in Japan, and I paid about $10 each.
Hooray!

I'm sorry about my thoughtless remarks on this very nice robot.

I have 8/10 of the "real" or "big" records. I'm still missing Phsychist, because its like strapping am I right? and I got all strapping albums before I had even two DTB, and Infinity because I think it just might be too much for my narrow mind.
I doubt if I ever buy No Sleep.

If you want to debate whether Physicst is like Strapping, then be sure to check out the Physicist forum on this board.
King Fear, well done on getting the NSTB box set! Even without the box. I think that is possibly the only thing that I dont have. Well, I dont have the Mikazuki thing either but I am not too fussed about that one.

No WAY man, you HAVE to get Infinity. It contains some of the best music ever created.

I'm going to get it LAST. The best music is usually not that easy to listen so I "train" myself with Dev's easier records.
Please don't misunderstand me again. I'm not in the mood of debating.

Physicist is in a way a SYL album, since the band is the same on Physicist as it's on SYL albums and it's certainly more metalish than other Dev's solo albums.

I still remember the last time I completed my Devy collection, with Synchestra. Now I'm gonna have to do it again once The New Black comes out, but I'm more than happy to have to do that.

I still haven't gotten Synchestra. (yeah, I know ridiculous when I buy like five cds a week) and now that I'm psyched about the New Black, I think I'll get that first actually, and save Synchestra for a bit later.
I've been buying too much music lately, I'm switching over to books for a while and just buying albums I really really want.
We'll see how long this plan lasts, aha.

I just got Synchestra! I buy EVERYTHING I like, but I didn't buy it immediately because I downloaded the fucker. Proof that downloading is bad, mmkay.
In all honesty, though, I did continuously look for the special edition in stores, they just never had it. Then I kept forgetting to order it. But I finally got it.
