Strapping Young Lad 7xLP Box Set!
Announcing news that will move entire nations. The incredibly long-overdue vinyl worship session of every bit of Strapping Young Lad's music one could ever ask for. That's right. A Strapping Young Lad 7xLP Box Set Discography. This monstrous limited edition 7xLP box set will contain *all five Strapping Young Lad full-lengths*; as well as *extra vinyl dedicated to the band's non-album material*; plus other special, newly-created gifts [yet to be announced]. The genre-busting Canadian industrial/death band has never seen their seminal albums "Heavy as a Really Heavy Thing," "SYL," nor "The New Black" touch wax before. Their other two records, "City" and "Alien," were pressed in ultra limited numbers of 500 copies only and sold out within months of their release. The massive box set is slated for a late 2012/early 2013 release.Click to share thisClick to share this51 comments

This is just great news! Looking forward to more details about this release.
Great! We are working with Devin and crew about what will be possible here. This is a massive release and will take us time to plan out, so let’s see what transpires over the next few months!
Can you please detail the source materials used for these pressings?
Hey there… we are in contact with Devin and his people about source materials and doing our best to make this the highest quality set possible!
Awesome!
Good Choice!
Thanks! We think so too!
Great news! As much as I know, the master tapes for some of the Devin records got ruined in the flood some time ago but I guess you do your best
Also, I hope these will be on black vinyl because they sound better than coloured vinyl (especially if most of these albums are on single LP-s:)
Thanks for doing this, guys! Cheers
Hey Marko,
Thanks for the input! Yes, we are considering all these angles. We’ve spoken with Devin about the existence of masters, and the outlook is a bit grim.
Our promise is to present these in the best possible quality available, so rest assured in no instance could better vinyl exist.
After the Maudlin Of The Well box set i hope to receive soon, yet another awesome package.
If you are inviting fans to help finance this package as you did for the Maudlin’s box , you already have mine!
Hey Cedric — motW sets are in the final production stage. We’re moments away from approving the test pressings and have received most of the extras, so those should be out within a few weeks (keep checking our FB page for progress!).
But as far as future releases, we hope to eliminate the lag time between pre-order and release. The motW sets was our first foray and wanted to play it safe dipping into uncharted waters.
We’ll see how this transpires, but we’re planning in most instances to take pre-orders 1-2 months officially before something hits streets (with art, audio, and everything finished and already submitted to the plant)!
OMG as soon as this goes on presale you’ll have my money. Thank you for doing this!!!

I doubt Dev had the masters for HAARHT or City. I would expect Century Media to have them but OM, Physicist and who knows what else were likely the ones affected by the flood.
Thanks admin for the reply. Please keep us posted on the source material.
We’re also dealing with Century Media here, so trust me… we will do everything we can. In the end, we promise that it will be the best sounding vinyl possible! Thanks much for the interest!
oh god yes! please email me when preorders start as i will buy this for sure. this is fantastic news for metal and vinyl fans everywhere!
cheers,

I have wanted these albums on vinyl for a very long time and this seems like the best package any SYL fan could ever wish for.
kudos, guys!
We’re very excited to see others as excited as us about this!
GREAT!!!!
Please insert also the 7″ C:enter:###

We have the tracks from C:enter:### to include.
All non-album songs will make it into the set
Great…… I can’t wait
How’s this coming along? Can’t wait to pre-order
We are working on it
But it’s still a while away.
We have a few projects coming before it, and it is a lot of work!.
We were saying end of ’12/early ’13, but I would bank on early ’13… I think we’ll start to work on it very hardcore around September/October.
We will update on our Facebook when things start to get very serious:

Thanks for the interest!
This is great news, and I´m glad SYL gets this deserved attention. I´m actually feeling happy now, and thats not metal!
Thanks for the support! We are looking at starting production on the SYL set in October and hope to have it available in very early ’13! You can follow us on Facebook where we update very often on the status of projects:

Hey there,
We announced a bit on our Facebook page. We began production on this a few weeks ago, will take some time to get all 7 albums up to speed, but there’s lots of nice things behind-the-scenes. Will update more in the next few months as everything gets worked on. Pre-orders will go live towards the beginning of 2013. Thanks!
Take my money already!
Shortly, we will
Which album is going to be the 2LP on this package? Alien?
Exactly
The rest are single LP, as is the bonus tracks disc.
Hell Yeah!!!! will you ship to Chile???
Yep definitely
We will ship worldwide!
After Devin played SYL at the Retinal Circus in London I decided I will do anything to get one of those box sets… Awesome! Can’t wait!
It’s payday again tomorrow, how many more will i have to see come and go before i can shoot some money your way??????? Waiting for info is killing me!
Save up for 2 copies :]
We’re working on it everyday now and hope to have some more significant updates within a few weeks. Hoping very much …
The pre-order is still some time away, but we know everyone’s antsy and trying our best! Trying to honor everyone’s wishes (band members / artists / etc.), so it takes a lot of approvals and planning. Stay tuned :]
would be killer to see some footage of how this box came to be!
Sorry to say, there is no footage! We didn’t plan any sort of documentary on the process.
Any word on a release date or pre-orders?
We will make an announcement as soon as we can ! Don’t worry, everything is on track.
Will you be revealing pricing of Normal & Die Hard Editions before pre-orders start? I need to know how much of my belongings i’m gonna need to sell to get it!
http://www.facebook.com/BlooodMusic
Yes, everyone is asking. It will come soon.
Thank you^
The die hard edition looks amazing. Cash only, our can I trade you my first-born?
First-borns only.
Excellent. My kind of transaction.
So if I donate I’ll get early pre-order?
Let me know how.
