I just purchased a used copy of Sigur Ros' Takk... that I found for a reasonable price at a cd store. Is the album supposed to have any sort of cd booklet in it with track info or anything like that because mine is missing it, and it being a used cd I wanted to make sure I didn't get short handed. ------------- "One had to be a Newton to notice that the moon is falling, when everyone sees that it doesn't fall.

Nope, no booklet. You have to go online to find lyrics, recording information, etc.
At least they put song titles on this one.
Excellent choice, btw.

Thanks.
Haha, yes the song titles really do help with discussion instead of saying the fourth one.
So far I like it alot, not as much as Agaetis, but moreso than () and Von. I don't know why it took me this long to buy it; especially since this material blew me away when I saw them live last September. ------------- "One had to be a Newton to notice that the moon is falling, when everyone sees that it doesn't fall.

The CD is put in an inconvenient place and it’s hard to get it out without scratching it. The cover and art of it is good though. A great album, probably the best I've found this year.

| I agree, the CD is awkward to get out and is likely to get scratched and fingerprinted. I have a similiar problem with Tool's 10,000 days, although I can just about get it out by tipping it upside down. |

The package is beautyfull but awkward >> the size of a DVD , and not well studied. I also wondered the same question as yours because it does look oversize for its content . As for the Cd difficult to bring out, given the wide space, it proves that the package was simply not thought out thoroughly ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

I actually store the CD in a thin-line plastic case next to the booklet in my collection.....

This CD packaging is like a woman Beautiful on the outside and complicated and difficult on the inside. ------------- [IMG]http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i165/amorfous/astro-1.jpg"> |
