The preview of the album sounds utterly amazing, so beautiful in fact that I’ve listened to the preview more than ten times now.  But immediately I have a problem.  Track nine, see if you can spot it.<\/p>\n

DOWN-FUCKING-LOAD ONLY.  WHAT THE FUCK<\/strong>?!<\/p>\n

So tell me V \/ Raster-Noton, why am I getting less<\/em> if I pay the full price for the album?  Why am I not getting the full product with a physical purchase?  Is “Kuuluuko” actually the ending of the album, or merely bonus material tagged on at the end?  This is fucking ridiculous.  I need to buy the fucking thing twice just to hear the “bonus” material…  Thanks guys.<\/p>\n

What if “Kuuluuko” turns out to be my favourite piece of music ever recorded?  In twenty years can I sit down with my kids and explain to them that this album is my favourite but “some of it was download only”.  I’m too furious to be coherent.  I cannot explain what a distraction from the music this is.<\/p>\n

Vladislav \/ Someone at Raster-Noton, contact me.  antony.bernardo@gmail.com<\/a>
\nI’ll try to tell you how every one of your customers should be treated equally.  I’ll try to show you that an album should always be offered in its integral version.  I’ll explain that I am, probably, Vladislav’s biggest fan but I’m considering pirating this album because I’m tired of being treated as a cash cow.<\/p>\n

You see, offering bonus material doesn’t add to the value of the download version, it detracts only from the physical.  The fact that you leave tracks off the physical pressing renders it almost pointless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
