Bandbox: an uncompensated review of an interesting new club

This is new. Seems to be a computer game soundtrack that has never been pressed before.
This is an out of left field pick for certain. But as someone who's never even heard of the game, let alone played it, I'm kinda digging what I've heard of the super synth-wavy score so far. Probably gonna give this one a shot if nothing earth shattering drops by month's end.

Are the subscriber rewards still there? Interesting that they don't mention it.
 
Yeah, it looks like they changed it to just two free up front. Still not a bad deal especially since it ends up being an $80 gift card.
Yeah, just wondering if those of us who signed up in August still get them. I looked back and the rewards are specifically mentioned in the email (and were a big reason I signed up) so I'm hoping they'll honor it. It's also no longer a page in the drop-down menu under "subscriptions" on their website but you can find it via google search.

I've gotten gift certificates emailed to me, so I think those are the rewards.

Yeah, they are. I got my first one this month. I guess what I'm trying to say is they're changing what they're offering. When I signed up in August the advertised subscriber rewards were 1 record after 3 consecutive months, two additional records at 6 months, and a test pressing at 12 months (delivered as gift cards unless it's the test pressing). This offer just gives you the gift card up front for 2 records instead of 3, adds a member-exclusive title (which we'll find out about later), and removes the test pressing.

Yes, I do believe it is a revamped offer.

My issue is I'm sitting on 3 records worth of gift cards and there isn't much in stock. I wish they would carry more of the regular titles for their exclusive artists so I had something to buy! Almost all of the ancillary titles to their exclusives are OOS

It is a valid argument, but I just say to myself that there will be eventually be something that I want. As long as they don't expire, I am not too worried about it. Granted I was an earlier subscriber than most so I have a lot of their early good exclusives like Death Cab, Julien and The Hold Steady.
