Press release:
Motley Crue announced today that Eleven Seven Music/Motley Records will release vinyl configurations of their current hit album Saints of Los Angeles along with their first five classic studio albums, Too Fast For Love (1981); Shout at the Devil (1983); Theatre of Pain (1985); Girls, Girls, Girls (1987) and Dr. Feelgood (1989) on Tuesday, November 25. Each album is pressed on high quality 180 gram vinyl and cut from the original analog master tapes.
To mark this occasion, Motley Crue is releasing a limited edition leather box set, Journals Of The Damned, containing all six vinyl releases. Limited to a sales run of 500, each set is individually numbered and also contains a Shout At the Devil Era lithograph signed by all four members of the band. The sets are available exclusively for order at www.motley.com.
The release of these Motley Crue albums on vinyl comes as many music fans are embracing vinyl for its superior sound quality and new technology allowing the transfer to MP3. With increased availability at major music retailers and online, LPs are making a comeback.
"I remember opening up my first vinyl and seeing the incredible artwork it had. There’s nothing like it," said Nikki Sixx. "You also get that true gritty sound on vinyl that really makes a rock record sound great which CD’s can never achieve. With the current resurgence of vinyl, it came at a perfect time for us to open up the next generation of rock fans to what they’ve been missing out on."

Ownedbyskull - 11/28/2008 8:33:36 AM I'll be at the Hard Rock show hitting up the slots, throwing down on some BLACK JACK and collecting some of the Indians cash and seeing a show. The wonderful thing is they have a Hotal there as well and you can get fucked up and party even harder after the show and crash in your room. How sweet is that.

scrapmetal - 11/26/2008 6:47:27 PM Glam you are correct,sir.I also saw Accept & Y&T wipe the stage with the Crue on Theaters of pain tour & was amazed that they dared bring the Snake out but hand it to Doc McGhee to do great numbers,give the fans their moneys worth & fire up the Crue to play better live.
Ownedbyskull - 11/26/2008 5:44:05 PM Can you imagine the pathetic excistance they must live? I mean if ya wanna call it "living".I know I'm on here alot and its because the FM radio sucks and KNAC doesnt. I have noticed esp in the AM they have the computer playin the same songs...still when was the last time your local FM station played MF of the year?? NEVER thats when. God forbid they play THAT over the airwaves. The FCC would have a fit wt them playing a "bad word" everyone sez every other sentence. THE HORROR (pan to shot of Marlon Brando in cave and loop sound bite)....The HORROR...
