The "I am Glorius, I've got the new album!" Thread

Laevus · February 14th, 2011, 06:20 AM

Yup, mine turned up this morning. T-shirt is (as expected) completely awesome, very nice album package and artwork. Not going to get the chance to listen to it until later, but I'm a die hard Evergrey fan and can guarantee I'll love every minute of it.

Thanks for making it such an early pre-order -two weeks before UK release date. Turned up on Valentines Day, so Evergrey must love me

Now to wait until "February 22th" (lol!) so that I can access the secret bonus goodies!

Strahd · February 14th, 2011, 08:21 AM

Just got home and found the package waiting for me as well. Just put in the CD and it's kicking ass . The package is really nice as well with a seperate booklet made up of awesome art.
The T-shirt is also cool with the cover and the text I Am Glorious on the front and the number 8 (wonder if this is individual for each t-shirt?) and Fakks Off! written on the back.
A big thumbs up to this deal! Hope to see a few others sporting this shirt in Gothenburg on the 26th.

I think the 8 is reference to it being the 8th album.

That sounds way more plausible.

What the fuck is the "fakks off" thing about anyways?

sailingarge · February 15th, 2011, 05:19 AM

I received the package yesterday and it's fantastic. Listening to the album right now and it grows for every second! Thank you guys for sending it to us so early!

It comes from the webisodes that were posted on Facebook.

Still camped out at my mailbox waiting to tackle the postman...

Aquiesence · February 15th, 2011, 08:19 AM

Yeah I just returned from work and found my "Glorious" package in the mailbox waiting for me ! I am waiting a couple of friends to arrive, to have a "listening session", great timing

FarOffGrace · February 17th, 2011, 05:03 AM

I live in Italy, I got my package yesterday, February 16.
I really wasn't expecting it to show up so early!

The shirt is nice, though I don't get the "8 fakks off!" on the back.

The album is glorious, it's WAY BEYOND my die-hard fan expectations.
I apologize with the band for not being trustful and I strongly recommend to everyone to buy the Limited Edition because the Carina bonus track is AMAZING, STUNNING, WONDERFUL

, they should so such a track on every release. I loved These Scars and this is kind of a step forward on that direction.

Well done, Evergrey!

killer_rose · February 17th, 2011, 08:21 AM

Doesn't The Carina bonus track feels kind of repetitive after the original version? As far as i know, the song is exactly the same - the only difference is that on the bonus track is singing only Carina...

tong_boy_junior · February 17th, 2011, 11:03 AM

Has anyone here in the States received their package yet?

A different vocalist is a big difference! I love both versions

I am so happy about a whole song sung by Carina

that I also prefer that version - though the original one is still outstanding!

And I can't wait to access all the goodies! Call me selfish, but damned if I'm going to pass around the details or what's inside either and hope everyone else keeps it to themselves too.
