| Walking Wicked |
Two quick questionsHello all, long time lurker and first time poster here looking for some info:1) Are we or are we not getting a Something Wicked box set in time for Christmas? Jon hasn't mentioned it much lately, other than to say the record company's in financial trouble and it may not happen. I hope it does, because I still don't own TCOM and I'm reluctant to buy it twice. (FA, on the other hand, is worth owning two copies of so you can compare the Owens and Barlow versions.) 2) Has Matt ever sung Curse The Sky live? This is one of my favourite tracks on the first album and I'm disappointed it wasn't on Days of Purgatory. |

the box set is most likely not happening, neither is barlow singing FA in the studio.
there will be a live dvd however later this year |
||||

Thank you  . Not the news I was hoping to hear, but it's better than not knowing.
I'll just go and put TCOM on my shopping list. It's long past time I gave it a listen. |

| paranoidmexican |
eh, i thought it kinda sucked, but w/e
i'm ready for that live dvd though |
||||

yeah, on the lame official side, ist was said, that a live dvd is coming out,....when we do not know. the wicked box would have been nice, but yeah, fuck it dude......
Actually, it was just a rumor, Barlow is never going to sing the FA, it was just a few people who couldn't get there faggot minds open to the voice of tim.... |

ehm no. Jon said himself that there would be a Something Wicked Boxset. They can't do it 'cause SPV is going down! "Metal Asylum: Now that Matt [Barlow, vocals] is back in the band, have you thought of going back and re recording the vocals for "Framing Armageddon"? You also mentioned a box set? Jon: Yeah, originally the box set was something that was planned from the beginning when we knew we would be completing the "Something Wicked" story. So I asked SPV to make sure that "Framing Armageddon Pt. 1" and "Crucible of Man Pt. 2" would be released only once without those albums coming out again as some kind of special edition because we already had these plans to re release both albums in this "Something Wicked" box set. So it makes sense to have the continuity between parts 1 and 2 now that Matt is back in the band. I have my own studio so it makes this not such a hard thing to accomplish and it's really cool because I can go back and remix and fix some of the low end issues I had on "Framing Armageddon" and also something I was able to address on part 2. Part 2, I think, is a bit more punchier than part 1. Metal Asylum: What else will the "Something Wicked" box set include aside from "Framing Armageddon Pt. 1" and "The Crucible of Man Pt. 2"? Jon: It will include the "Overture of the Wicked" EP which has the newer versions of the original trilogy ("Prophecy", "Birth of the Wicked", "The Coming Curse" from the "Something This Way Wicked Comes" album) but Matt re-singing those songs, then it will have "Framing Armageddon Pt. 1" remixed with Matt singing, a DVD with footage from the festivals we did this summer in Europe plus behind the scenes of us making parts 1 and 2." YOU ARE THE FAGGOT! |

I hope this dosen't turn into a fight.
To be 100% honest, does anybody here really think it's wrth redoing FA, I mean, I'd rather just have them work on something new instead of hearing the same stuff again, which has happened many times before. Sure it would be cool to hear, but I don't think it's worth it. |
||||
| Feaněs |
dude ya didn't get it do ya?
it ISN'T SERIOUS!!! we are just foolin' around, right Dante??? |
||||
| Dante |
Of course it isn't serious. We're all buddies here! 
|
||||
| Feaněs |
yeah! see? I wouldn't turn on another minion...there is no place here for traitors! |
||||
| Tainted Innocence |
agreed,even though it's not going to happen i would rather hear the band move on to another style of writting rather then her some remixed stuff. |

I think I'm not the only one who's getting sick of the Something Wicked storyline... | ||||
| Kanadwen |
Jon needs to stop with the full length albums and go back to the trilogy style.
1.) Create an album normally 2.) Add a double song or a trilogy that's related to the Something Wicked storyline 3.) ???? 4.) PROFIT! |
||||
| The Wicked One |
no more of the something wicked storyline.
Leaving it with an open end is good enough for me, seeing as how man is not fucked at the moment but could be given future actions. It makes the story feel real. In anycase Jon himself said hes gonna do something else. |
||||
| Tainted Innocence |
i got sick of it the first time i heard FA. it really gets boring because you eventually run out of stuff to write about when you only have one thing to write about (set) |
||||
| The Sexiest Metalhead |
I just hope it's something like BO or NOTS | ||||
| Set Abominae |
Granted, so do I, but I hiiiiiighly doubt it's going to happen. Jon's getting old, I'd say he's in his late 40s now, if not his 50s. |
||||
| Metal Defender |
:O! He's only 41! He does look older though, I'll give you that
|
||||
| Feaněs |
yeah , but we are still talking about jon fuckin' schaffer, the man who rides the storm on every concert, he could do easily an album as fast as IE and NOTS! | ||||
