A 73-track box set, which includes 49 previously unreleased tracks across 4 CDs, 7 12-inch 180-gram LP's & a blu-ray that contains the album mixed in 5.1 surround will be released on 6/29.

There is a TON of stuff included in this box set. I'm gonna guess it'll cost at least $350.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Hopefully there is an affordable version that leaves out all of the other shit and just has the music discs.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I'm not too impressed by this track list. So disc 2 is basically just Lies with a couple of live tracks thrown in & the rest of the set is Sound City Sessions, which has been available on bootlegs for years (in very low quality though).

I'm most excited to have Appetite in 5.1. GNR is my favorite band & I'm a huge fan of 5.1 audio. If I read this right, the Blu Ray will contain Appetite & a few tracks from Lies along with Shadow (as bonus tracks) in 5.1?

Of course One in a Million has been omitted completely.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Yeah, I'm not sure I'm too interested in this. The mix on AFD is already stellar so I don't know if there's really any reason to upgrade.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Holy shit, I'm in! Love this album so I want all the bells and whistles.

I'm excited about these, if the sound quality is good, then I can finally retire my crappy sounding bootlegs (like my "No Refrain" bootleg CD that I bought nearly 30 years ago! :lol: )

Sucks that "One in a Million" is left out. I realize that some of the lyrics are extremely problematic these days, too bad because other than that it is a fantastic song

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I'd have liked to see a live concert video with soundboard audio. The big sell for me would be the upgrade on the Sound City Sessions.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Try $999.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Landmark album, but while I'm curious about the Sound City sessions I ain't coughing up what they're asking for them. My vinyl still sounds fantastic. I'm good.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

$999??? I'm out. :lol:
Guess I'll stick with my original CD and vinyl (both of which sound great) and my boots of the Sound City sessions.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

That price is absolutely insane. If the album is offered in a more basic package remastered with some extra tracks or whatever I’ll consider getting just that.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

That price is almost as bad as the ticket prices for the first reunion tour.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Meanwhile, Metallica offers deluxe box sets of their albums (really well done too) for around $150 a pop.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Didn't see the links for the one and two disc CD versions before. Might grab the two disc set.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

It does come in a wood box, 7 records, a book, temporary tattoos, and has a bunch of extra shit like rings, but $1000 is still fucking insane.

I wonder if anyone who buys this beast will a tually use the temporary tattoos. I can see someone's kids getting the box, using the tats, and getting their asses beat. :lol:

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

"One In A Million" is missing. I guess when Axl said he would not ever rerelease the song he meant it.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Amazing this is priced at $1k.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Isn't there a more affordable version of the set for $179? Not sure what it's missing.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Yeah there is, but I'm also unclear on which songs aren't on it.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

https://gnrmerch.com/collections/app...deluxe-edition

According to the link above, it has all the same songs, the Blu-ray and extras, just no vinyl or wood box. Ok, for $179 I'll likely go for that then. I already have AFD on vinyl, don't need all the extra songs on vinyl, especially if it costs a grand.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Looks kind of cool, but a thousand bucks?

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I don't think anybody cared when Slash rejoined the band except for the die-hards so this box set is a waste of time and money.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

$999 and no KY Jelly included in the set? Or a jar of Vaseline to sweeten the blow?

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I just found these two sets, its looks like there will be cheaper versions of these releases after all.
CD set-$179.99
Vinyl-$35.98

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I don’t get how they’re getting this release to $1,000 still. I mean the double LP is $35.98, take that times three and a half is $125.93. The two disc CD set is $19.99 so times two is $39.98. The Blu-ray I’d figure is maybe $25-$30. So that should be around $190.91-$195.91 give or take. Is the rest for the damn wooden box or what? Cripes. I wouldn’t want the massive set anyways but talk about bending your fans over and dumping out their money from their pockets.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

The sad part is that there are a small handful of bands I would shell that kind of money out for. Thankfully GnR isn't one of them.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I’ve bought a couple big sets but nothing like this and neither were this expensive. I bought the Ten and Vs./Vitalogy ultimate sets by Pearl Jam. Both those were pretty loaded sets but were like $150 a piece I think.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I pre-ordered the $40 LP set. That's about as high as I go.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I like the idea of something from Gun n Roses in 2018 that includes Izzy Stradlin and Steven Adler. But 1000 bucks is too rich for my blood. I might be in for the LP set though.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

This has been released as the b-side of Live & Let Die. However, this version is very different.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Did Appetite for Destruction come out in 1988 or was it 87? I'm sure a Use your Illusion box set will follow on their anniversaries, but will both of those albums be packaged together or sold separately for any box set?

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Summer '87.

On the cusp of teenage-hood, that was the year I really started getting into music.

I remember buying Appetite for Destruction, Whitesnake, and Girls, Girls, Girls on vinyl that summer and playing the shit out of them.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

All those tracks and no "Crash Diet". Phooey. :)

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

I might have to get the CD super deluxe for the wife, this is her favorite band. She would take the box set if there was a way for her to get the $1000 past me.

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Super Deluxe Edition

$138.74

Re: Massive Appetite for Destruction box coming 6/29
 

Interesting news. I used to be a HUGE fan of the Gunners back in the late '80's. I was a long-haired kid (when I still had hair - LOL) in my late teens at the time, and Appetite For Destruction was definitely my #1 album during that era. I used to play it constantly; I also had the black light felt poster of the cross album cover. What's interesting is that I've never considered myself a Metal fan & haven't really been into Metal bands per se. However, the Gunners were the exception.

I am definitely not going to shell out $1,000 for a super-duper boxed set of this album - screw that. However, I may get a much cheaper version of the deluxe set, possibly the very reasonably priced Target exclusive (which only comes with 2 CD's); the collectible patch sounds nice.

It's interesting both the Target set & the much more expensive 5-CD set include almost all of the Lies LP (1988) on the bonus CD's...with the exception of the extremely controversial song One in a Million, which many found offensive. I suspect the reason for this is that the song was so panned at the time (and would be found even more offensive these days than in the late '80's), that the "powers that be" decided not to include this here.

I'm slightly surprised that something like this didn't come out for the 30th anniversary of the album's release in 2017. That would have been a more appropriate time. But, maybe they were working on it & the release got delayed for some reason.
