The Rentals Return (again)

leave a comment »

One of my favorite bands of all time keep coming back better than ever – The Rentals.   They’re going to be releasing . Following in the footsteps of NIN & Radiohead, they will be releasing a digital download of a mini album every quarter in 2009 with 3-4 songs on it.   The price is fair for $4, but they’re also offering pretty enticing packages beyond the standard download. Check out the tracks at therentals.com, and youtube videos here. I won’t say that I’m not thinking about investing in the Limited Deluxe Edition for $275:

  • Hardcover coffee table photo book of exclusive images, photographed by Matt Sharp in connection with Songs About Time
  • Four-LP set of Songs About Time on 180 gram vinyl with unreleased exclusive bonus tracks. This vinyl set will ONLY be available in the Limited Edition Package!
  • Three CD-set of all 3 Songs About Time Mini Albums
  • CD of Films About Weeks original soundtrack scores
  • High-Def DVD of Films About Weeks Video Collection
  • Two all-access VIP backstage passes to a future Rentals show of your choice (tickets must be purchased separately).
  • One undeveloped roll of black and white 35mm film shot by Matt Sharp during a single day in 2009
  • Exclusive access to online photo gallery to post and share the images from your personal 35mm roll of film.
  • Immediate Free download of all Songs About Time Premium Digital Mini Albums as they becomes available including the exclusive “A Thousand Seasons Past” music video. Your download includes 100% DRM free, high quality FLAC files, 320kbps MP3 audio and Mp4 video files, a 35-page PDF booklet and wallpapers. The files will arrive as zip archives.
  • Each Limited Edition is numbered and signed by The Rentals and personalized per request (you will receive an email prior to the shipping date to choose your dedication)
