News on BNL’s new album
From the official Barenaked Ladies mailing list:
“The new album, Everything to Everyone, available on CD or as a Deluxe CD+DVD combo-pak, featuring video of an 11 song acoustic studio session, in studio tid-bits, and the album in 5.1 Surround Sound. Look for the release available Tues, Oct 14th at digital retailers (iTunes, MusicMatch, Rhapsody, etc.) and Tues, Oct 21st in stores everywhere.”
Interesting that the CD is available on-line by a full week first. Even more interesting, to me, is the Deluxe edition with what amounts to an acoustic concert video. I like the sound of that.

Yeah it is the Deluxe Edition I’m looking at too. I’m still surprised they are releasing 3 different versions. Must be to stop the illegal downloaders. I wish more bands got on the ball with this.

311′s new CD has 2 CD-rom movies. 1 about the making of the CD and 1 about the photo shoot for the album. Cool stuff. Let’s hope this is the future of CD’s!

Actually, I think CD-ROM content on music CDs is more the past than the future. It was all the rage a couple of years ago … and used to drive me crazy on my old computer, which would automatically try to pull up the content when all I wanted to do was listen to some music. The new craze is the bonus DVD of videos and interviews, either included as a limited edition the day the album comes out, or tacked on months later in order to induce fans to but the set twice. Anyway, it’s a nice bonus, and doesn’t raise the price, though I have to admit that I rarely play the DVDs more than once (and since I store my CDs in books rather than on shelves, figuring out where to put the bonus disc can be a pain).
