So I can only get the compilation CD or each individual EP on a 12"? I would rather have a CD boxset of each EP...

10", and yes, the only boxset is vinyl. But you get a digital download of all of them! If they sold a CD boxset they wouldn't be able to charge you $80 for music that could fit on 2 CDs. ;-)

Good point.
SW sold me 5 CD's with two tracks on them each in a boxset, but then again I am a huge fanboiii.

Gnnn. This is expensive already, but with import duty & PO charges it looks like I'm gonna have to make do with the abridged CD. Pah!

It still kind of upsets me that you caved to SW's blatant money-grubbing and bought the music in that format.

Sounds ambitious. I'm not really a fan of their music, but I've bookmarked the stream and I'll give it a listen later.

Yours arrived? I'm jealous. The postal workers here have been striking then locked out so who knows when I'll see mine.

I actually got mine Wednesday. That sucks man, but you won't be disappointed when they get there.

So what do you think, Pat?
 
I thought the arrangement was absolutely wonderful, each EP is it's own thing and each one was great in it's own way. I especially loved Indigo.

I agree. They really did a great job of evoking the spirit of the colors and keeping the EPs separate musically. I really enjoy what I've heard with one listen through. Violet has been my favorite so far.
