Originally this album was released in 2001 on CD only. Lucky 13 years later someone finally decided to give it a proper treatment. I had never listened to the full album before the pre-order went up so I wasn't sure wether I would like it as much as their previous output or not. Now that I have it I have to say I do. 'Tonight and forever' is a great record. At this point in their history nothing reminds of their hardcore past anymore but who cares? The band progressed naturally and instead of ripping off their own older material and becoming boring they developed into a great indie/ pop / whatever band. No sell out, no commercial tactics or other bullshit. Just a bunch of guys doing what they love. How could you not respect that.
By the way this is the last record to arrive that I paid for in 2'14 and it only arrived in 2'15 so how do I treat this? I'd say I file this under 2'14 buy. And with this I have covered all 12" inch records I picked up last year. But as you might have realised there weren't too many 7"es I posted about lately. Well, brace yourself. There's a huge stack that need to be put on here. I still have to take pictures of all of those and there are some real bangers in there. At least for my collection.
Meanwhile my first purchase of 2'15 is in but I will only cover that once that heap of singles has been dealt with. Might be a while but I'm doing my best to catch up on all that.
Four different variants out of a 500 total press run is a bit excessive I have to say but that's how you bait suckers like me. Initially I wanted to get only one copy but couldn't make up my mind which one to pick so in a moment of madness I said what the hell and ordered all of them. A small part of me regrets this but only for the monetary damage it caused. Having all of them here now feels very good and totally makes me forget about the money. Hot pink on the left is out of 200 the others are out of 100 each. The 2nd record from the left is supposed to be a color in color in color, hot pink in dark purple in milky clear. Too bad the clear only appears in a some spots and doesn't even really come through. All of those can still be ordered here, where you can also check out how that tripple color inside color was supposed to look. I wonder if any of those records actually look like that. If so I think I need one because it looks so damn amazing. If your copy does look like that please send me a picture.
