Hi!

A boxset with 9 albums, I thought it could interest some of you! As I have only MDK from them, I'll surely get this boxset! It's released in November 20th


Brand new song called "Erin Shores (part one)" - Listen & download here : http://spleenarcana.bandcamp.com/track/erin-shores-part-on

Now that I own three studio albums, two live albums and the "Kompila", I'm not sure to buy this boxset. But there is this unreleased double CD... 
Is there any plan to release this double album apart from the box?

Wow this is GREAT news! My only concern are the import fee from France, and the customs fee...

Don't worry, I guess that shops like Caiman US will sell it too when it will be released ;)

Even in France, the boxset will be expensive, for the Euro being a bit stronger than the Dollar.
Speaking of that subject, I went to a store two weeks ago, seeking for CDs by Univers Zero or Present: the store didn't have any of their discs and could only order it in "import" from across the sea (yeah, I like being a bit melodramatic)...
To import the records of Belgian bands from the USA to France appeared as "weird" to me.
Luckily, I still find Magma CDs in the corner store without any custom fees.

If you google "Magma 40 ans", apparently Target (Confused) plans to sell the box set for $150.  I'd really like more detail on its contents, though.

edit:  looks like it's all the studio releases, save for "Wurdah Itah"?

All I can say is that it inculdes the 9 first studio albums ;) and again, I'm sure Caiman (at Amazon) will sell it!

If it really includes the first 9 albums, it will really be a great deal! The first one is nearly impossible to find here and even on ebay! If some store sell it in North America then it will be a sure buy for me!

Just say it comes from French CanadaLOLWink


In fact I live in Quebec so it would be great ;)

Well, on the French site of Amazon, the price announced for this boxset is 81 euros (and 41 cents). Wow. It's nearly half the price Target wants to sell it.
For my part, I will focus on their new live record.

Well you can see the nine cover arts beneath the boxset picture and that's what "L'intégrale en 9 albums" means ;)

I checked on the Amazon.fr website for the shipping price of the boxset to Canada, and it was like 10 Euros. It seems pretty low to me, has anyone ever imported something from Amazon.fr to America? If yes, is it simple like that?

I pre-ordered the boxset from Amazon.fr, and it said it would ship to the USA (delivery time about 2 weeks). I hope it does ship properly. 10 Euros sounds about right for international shipping.

Who's issuing this box set?  Odd that there's no news about it from Seventh.
