SAINT - Crime Scene Earth REISSUE!
There will be a remixed, remastered version of Crime Scene Earth with Josh Kramer singing on every track. There will be new artwork by Rexorcist as well. The packaging will be a 4-panel digi pack, but will be high quality with the plastic tray. I'm excited about this release. I really liked Crime Scene Earth but felt the vocals held it back, and the mix was a little uneven. With these things fixed and some new killer artwork, this will be a reissue worth picking up!

I'll trade anyone the original release for this!

I ignored this because of the issues that they are now fixing, mainly the vocals. I will definitely be picking this up.

I hope the digi is better than the Hero release that just came out. It is some of the thinnest cardboard I have ever felt in a digipack, and the CD just sits on a flimsy rubber holder. It's super cheap!

People must've really hated the vocals to re-release this so soon.

It's not JUST that. The band only pressed a small amount of the original CDs on their own and had no distribution or advertising whatsoever.

Agreed on all accounts. BUT this one will have the full plastic tray on it to give it some sturdiness according to Matt instead of that dumb rubber knob.

I'm looking forward to this, I liked this lp, but think it best that Rich never sings again!

I think Rich should keep singing, but he needs to do some stuff more like Stricken or Testify for his voice to match the gruffness of the music.

I wish I could post the cover art, but I am not sure it's been approved yet. Rex did a killer job with it.

Points:

1. When this comes out.....

Whoosh.....in the vault it goes.

2. That said.....I have the original.....and I like it just fine.

Seriously......I do.

I guess I am just a fanboy, given the fact that SAINT is my favorite Christian band.

3.

SAINT

Josh sent me a pic of the art work a few days ago but since it's now up on his fan site, here it is...

I was blown away to find out that the spiked hand on the new cover is none other than my good friend and brother in metal and Christ, Scott Waters of Ultimatum. LOL!!! Wild! I love it! Folks are asking why I didn't sing the songs that Rich sang the lead on CSE. Ok, I confess, I talked Rich into it. I take full responsibility for our fun little experiment. Hey, I loved what he did on CSE. Even though I am now singing 99.3% of the lead vocs on CSE, I made sure that he gets to sing a few lines that only he can do so well with his grit, growling, snarling, and head biting way. Rich is a killer supporting vocalist and I think you will like what we have done. More new stuff on the way! Josh...hjk

Wow!! IMO that is a fantastic album cover.

(BTW I still loved the original)

Greg's a SAINT fanboy wave

Best cover art for them since the 80's!

KILLER cover art!!! Love it!

When does this come out?

**alldatndensum** · Subject: Re: SAINT - Crime Scene Earth REISSUE! Tue Jun 23, 2009 6:02 am

Very nice artwork indeed. With such a drastic change, though, I'll have to keep the original for the collectibility of it.

Actually that's not quite the final. Apparently I was the only one that liked the blue-ish coloring on the hand. I'll upload the final in a few minutes.
