In this physical "unboxing" of the brand new Pixies' box set, Minotaur, the pieces that make up the monstrous Limited Edition set.

The Pixies: Minotaur - Limited Edition: The definitive Pixies collector's piece. Contains all five Pixies' studio albums (Come on Pilgrim, Surfer Rosa, Doolitle, Bossanova, and Tromp le Monde) in the following formats: 24k gold plated CD's; five 12" - 180 gram vinyl LP's cut from the original analog tapes; Blu-ray Disc mastered for 5.1 surround sound and 2 channel stereo at 96/24 high-definition; and DVD-Audio mastered for 5.1 surround sound and 2 channel stereo at 96/24. Also included is the previously unreleased Pixies 1991 live performance from Brixton, on both Blu-ray and DVD, mastered for 5.1 surround sound. All discs are housed in a custom designed folio.

This set is curated by legendary graphic designer, Vaughan Oliver, who with photographer Simon Larbalestier, were responsible for the visual aesthetic for all of the Pixies' albums. Oliver and Larbalestier have collaborated once again on Minotaur, to create their largest Pixies body of work to date. The duo's extensive work is featured in a 96-page fine art book measuring 22" x 14", and a smaller 52-page book measuring 7.75" x 8.25". Also included is a 12" x 19.5" giclee print of Oliver's and Larbalestier's work, and two double-sided fold-out posters measuring 48" x 36".

This Limited Edition is housed in an oversized clamshell case and is hand-signed by every member of the Pixies and Oliver. Weighs approximately 26 pounds and ships via Federal Express worldwide. Limited to 3,000 units. Available for $495.00, plus shipping and handling.

  • @tidalboxer Barely sir. The bitch tried to off me when she saw the bank statement but it was worth it. It's still goes for a pretty decent price on Amazon and Ebay, though it is very costly still.
