@@dynamo4543 I reached out to the record label awhile ago and they said there’s no plans to release it on CD in the near future. They just released a 2nd vinyl pressing of the box set.
Thanks for sharing! My first wasp album was live in the raw! The Ratt box set is great! God bless you! God bless all the Ratt n rollers ! If you like it heavy, Megadeth weighs a ton!Savior JESUS keep you safe always !
I just found your channel, thanks to that W.A.S.P. thumbnail, I think, great channel gave you a sub, I got to see W.A.S.P. with Quiet Riot New Years Eve 1985, it was epic, I mainly talk rock vinyl on my channel and post a few concert clips. Thanks for sharing the great music info. Happy Halloween!
New subscriber here as I also did a first impression box set opening. Literally caught on camera. Wonderful compliment to a weekly series I did with a friend on the band’s catalogue.
I grew up with them I started out with their cassettes then cds 💿 in the 90s and 2000s seen them in concert in 2000 .I have some of their earlier vinyls .I'm getting excited about the vinyl box set to .
Ordered mine a few days ago merchbar is still taking orders for it direct from madfish other sites are sold out or are charging crazy amounts for it which is typical. I hope it ships soon i missed the preorder time frame. Cannot wait to get it.
The sleeves and inners in the box set are the same as the originals, even the labels match (almost), slight differences, madfish etc.. The Crimson Idol wasn't a double album originally, they just enlarged the print and did two sleeves. The 'extras' album has not been released before so there is no inner sleeve to copy, hence the anti-static sleeve. It's a fantastic box set. Would have been an absolutely amazing box set if they had included a blu-ray of the Live At The Lyceum 1984 video in it, WITHOUT the overdubbed garbage crowd noise but with the original 'crowd noise'. I have been to hundreds of gigs and not once have i been at a gig that sounded like that WASP video, totally ruined it
I played the hell out of the first album,but then got slayer show no mercy and this started my journey into the more extreme side of metal ,but still have good memories of that first album 😊
It's a nice box, nice review! The inner sleeves are not good, too tight to get the records out without touching the grooves. I actually got a few scuffs on mine due to the bad sleeves and man handling of the records. Looking at an angle there were micro hairlines on a couple of them. Not exceptional. Absolutely get MoFi sleeves for these. Hopefully they sound good!
WOW, I seen WASP when I was a kid lol, They just put out their first album , Their big song at the time I believe was I was a be somebody . Fun Times everybody
I have first press of their first album and inner sleeve is just like original. Great looking box but I have to pass. I have all those albums on cd. I am vinyl guy but there's so much box sets and prices keep going up and I just can't get everything. Glad you got it. Cheers from Finland, Petri
Got into WASP late, they’ve become a favourite, always thought they were poser glam, but hell their first LP at least is excellent heavy metal, great guitars!
Oh,WASP were never glam metal. I think their debut album is pure heavy metal.Another two might sound kind of ""soft"" but the Live album that came after Inside The Electric Circus was again,pretty heavy. Great band.
Ran into the band at a hotel I was staying at. And WASP was staying on the second floor above us. everyone but Blackie was on the balcony and we noticed them being we were going to the show that night. They were playing with KISS. Who is who we were goin to see of course. Asked them for their autographs and they tried pouring their beers on us from the balcony, then they called Blackie out from the room and he came out and tried to spit on us. Never a bigger piece of trash band has there ever existed.
I would be very curious about the sound quality, they had some great choice riffs and songs but also some of the worst , boomy 80's production (mostly by Blackie himself) of any metal band of the era.
Oh cool! You like a good band. Ditch that silly band Mortician. I'd dump all those mortician records in the trash. Can't see anybody buying them. Save your money for slayer records!

That first record is such a classic. I never get tired of hearing it.
WASP. One of the first bands I've got into as a Kid in Iron Curtain ( Lithuania ) back in 1986 . Amazing band. Great Boxet.
I’m a CD guy and was bummed to see this set was not released on CD. I’m hoping it eventually does get a CD release, I love those old WASP albums.
you & I both,was so bummed about no cd,hopefully it gets Cd too because there are still many of cd people out there

Well done, I am going to share this on the band’s official social media channels.
Wow,the whole Box Set looks really great. It covers the best chapter of the band's history.
Blackie Lawless delivers!

last command you'll like it it's really good might be there best album
Nice. all the records up to the Crimson Idol are great. The Crimson Idol is a 10/10 record
I used to worship Wasp when I was a teenager, 👍 great video subscribed cheers

Nice job explaining- that's my #1 band !!

Did you know Steve Riley recently passed away.Ŕ.I.P.

Tremenda banda...Blackie inmortal...from Chile...espectacular en su único show...acá en mi país
This is an absolute banger of a set! Grabbed one just to keep sealed seeing how they are limited and one to bust
I played the hell out of the first album,but then got slayer show no mercy and this started my journey into the more extreme side of metal ,but still have good memories of that first album 😊
That’s hilarious because I have the show no mercy shirt on
Where you ordered yours? Merchbar and Amazon don’t have them available to ship as of today.
Ironic how both Slayer's first album and WASP's first album have songs called 'Show No Mercy' and 'Tormentor'. Both albums were released in 1984. 😉👍
It's a nice box, nice review! The inner sleeves are not good, too tight to get the records out without touching the grooves.

my fave band of all time

Question is, is that the original version of The Crimson Idol or is it the re-recorded "Christian edited" version?
How do they sound. I have not found any info on the mastering process or other details other than it's a Euro release.
Nice girl who's talking seriously metal it's a good and nice surprise
Awesome Rock on 🤘 put on the music apps
I got it !!!!
W.A.S.P. Forever !!!!!
Rock n Roll !!! 👍🤘
Got into WASP late, they’ve become a favourite, always thought they were poser glam, but hell their first LP at least is excellent heavy metal, great guitars!
Nice set, but the $300 price tag is a little high for what you get. IMO..
Try $1000 for a single album Kiss box set.
Nice slayer shirt
''Live in the Raw'' still goat from Wasp imho.
I liked W.A.S.P as a teenager.
Oh,WASP were never glam metal. I think their debut album is pure heavy metal.Another two might sound kind of ""soft"" but the Live album that came after Inside The Electric Circus was again,pretty heavy. Great band.

So far no complaints on the sound
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
nice set, but a bit expensive at $300. I already own most of these as separate records, so pass for me
have not ever bought a lot box set but I will buy that one thanks
Dissapointment. I was waiting for the 1st album demos etc, nothing new here
the print quality of the inner sheet to circus is terrible , have you tried reading it? theres no excuses for it to be so bad,
have not ever bought a lot box set but I will buy that one thanks see
Oh cool! You like a good band. Ditch that silly band Mortician. I'd dump all those mortician records in the trash. Can't see anybody buying them. Save your money for slayer records!
I already own all the slayer records
Seoul is world best seoulis
