New Album Thread - without Demos


Recommended Posts

Well, if it helps Joan of Arc and Messiah are my 2 fav of the album. I don't find any flaw in Joan of Arc.

From all the comments I'm reading those two songs seem to be the most polarizing. People either really love them or completely hate them. I'm referring to the demo's too BTW. Judging from some comments though, the album versions dont sound like the demo's so who knows?

I just noticed that Mark Knopfler's new album Tracker will be released by Universal a week after Rebel Heart. Interestingly, one of the physical formats listed is a Super Deluxe Box.

Based on the content of the Mark Knopfler box, I expect the Super Deluxe Rebel Heart box to include:

  • 19-track album on both CD and vinyl
  • 6-track bonus CD
  • DVD with some kind of exclusive content
  • Expanded booklet

The Mark Knopfler box costs around £60 and was originally meant to be produced in only 300 (yes, three hundred) copies. However, due to overwhelming demand, the planned run has been expanded in quantity.

Ok, if Universal goes and makes the Super Deluxe Box limited i will really be incredibly angry. So angry, that i personally will hack all their computers to steal all the songs.

I hope they let us buy everything comfortably, thank you. If it's limited, it should be at least several thousands limited.

Universal Music Denmark just confirmed to me that Rebel Heart WILL get a physical release in Denmark! :vogue::tigger:

but isn't that normal? how could they not release the psychical CD/album of the most famous artist in the world?

My local record shop hasn't been informed by the label of any physical release yet. They said this indicated that no physical release was planned.

But they were wrong :)

Oh, i checked Amazon and there's already a price for the vinyl. It's incredibly expensive, i hope it's not that high later!

Rebel Heart (Deluxe) (Dlx) [VINYL]
Madonna Format: Vinyl
Price: £45.99

It's often that expensive in the beginning, because Amazon promises that they won't charge you more for an item after you pre-order it, even though it may get more expensive afterwards. So they "wait" until they get the final price from the record label and keep the price higher until then.

"Mike Tyson Talks 'Intense, Crazy' Cameo on Madonna's 'Rebel Heart' LP"

"When Madonna released the finished track list for her upcoming album Rebel Heart earlier this week, the most conspicuous guest star wasn't Nicki Minaj, Nas or Chance the Rapper. That distinction fell to Mike Tyson, who appears with the singer and Chance the Rapper on new track "Iconic."

And while Tyson hasn't heard the finished track yet (a leaked demo of the song only featured Madonna), the former boxer-turned-actor tells Rolling Stone that his role was similar to his 1998 appearance as a hype man on battle rapper Canibus' "Second Round K.O."

"Madonna calls you and tells you to come somewhere, you go," Tyson says. "I didn't know what the hell I was going there for. I'm just there having a good time and hanging out with Madonna. She has her producer there and I go into the studio and I didn't know if she wanted me to talk or rap. I just go in there and start talking. I'm talking about my life and things that I have endured. I'm saying some really crazy stuff. It was really intense."

Tyson ad-libbed his part of the song which he says was done in one take and drew inspiration from an unlikely icon. "When I did it, I think about being some guy like [benito] Mussolini and they're really arrogant, but you try to come from a positive perspective and be uplifting. You watch Mussolini on television even though we don't understand what he's saying he is so mesmerizing. I look at myself in that way.

"I know people may say 'this guy's a fascist' and all this stuff, but man, you can take positivity from watching him," added Tyson. "No wonder why Hitler was attracted to him. This guy's a hypnotic figure. There's so much pride behind what he's saying. I'm not even Italian and I feel the pride he's projecting. He had that street swag; he was doing this stuff with his hands and moving his head before it was even hip-hop."

"Madonna's trying to do something that since the beginning of time has been the most difficult thing to do: Save the world."

While this is the first musical collaboration between the two stars, their history together goes back decades. Tyson says he first met Madonna in 1988 during a double date between himself, then-wife Robin Givens, Madonna and her then-husband Sean Penn. When the foursome went to see a Pee-wee Herman movie, Tyson and Penn both fell asleep midway through the film, leaving their dates time to bond.

"She's an awesome, serene person," Tyson says of Madonna. "She's trying to do something that since the beginning of time has been the most difficult thing to do: Save the world. I commend her for that. She is a fighter in every sense of the word and from an intergalactic perspective," he adds with a laugh.

The star of Mike Tyson Mysteries, the unexpected animated hit that was recently picked up for a second season, even weighed in on Adi Lederman, the 38-year-old Israeli man arrested for hacking into Madonna's computer and attempting to sell the unreleased songs. "It's an invasion of privacy," says Tyson. "It's totally counterproductive to what our so-called constitution is all about. But I'm not in the position to pass judgment on somebody like that, but [what happens to him] shouldn't be something nice."

It's unclear if Tyson, who contributed the dance-pop song "One Night in Bangkok" to the soundtrack to 2011's The Hangover Part II, will try to parlay his "Iconic" appearance into a future career, but the multihyphenate is not ruling it out.

"Doing the song with Madonna makes me think this [music career] could really happen," Tyson says. "Most guys that come in there drink a bunch of liquor or smoke 100 blunts. I just went in and boom, one take. Everyone thought it was cool."

lol nothing wrong with what he says. these politicians have a lot of charisma and train how they preach and things like that. bill clinton is also hugely talented in that. but also the bad guys ;) everyone knows that. but well, it's controversial in the US to talk about what we all know I guess?
