:zoviet*france: Appreciation thread

Yeah he emailed me back saying the single record requests will go live in 10 weeks. He's not taking pre-pre orders for the separate albums yet. Yeah, same, just don't have the cash for the set otherwise I would in an instant.

this is incredibly tempting. hopefully there will be post '87 stuff as well

asked VOD's boss on facebook and sadly : "no plans to do so"

 

This seems to have been a pretty monumental undertaking on VOD's part, which from what I can tell is a one-man-army. This is well documented on their facebook. While there isn't any plan right now, I have a feeling this will be a pretty lucrative effort for the label and maybe they'll take up reissuing the rest of the discography in the not too distant future. There are some incredible gems from '88 onwards that could use 180gm treatment.  

preorders for standalones now available, b quick!

What Frank does is indeed simply incredible and he puts efforts, sweat, blood and tears into his releases. He is dedicated to the music and his choice of pressing plants, high quality mastering and lavishly done boxes shows that he does not do things cheaply.

As for later ZF I am very sure he won't release anything- I asked him as well and he told me openly he don't like some of the stuff from that period. As for now his next challenge is the COME ORG boxset and he also announced a vinyl box treatment for Vanity Records (aye, the cult label). 

That's a shame about the rest of the pearls in their discog, but I'm not complaining! Just snapped up five standalone records from Boomkat. Cant wait to get my ears all over em.

Any recommendations for one unmissable ZF album? Been meaning to give their discography a go and tempted to pick one of these up.

listen earlier to this thread n see what you like.. personally i rlly like loh land and popular soviet songs atm.

I don't have a record player tho sadly xD

Went for mohnomishe in the end, would possibly pick up some others depending on how I get on with this but I'm guessing they won't be around for long judging by previous discogs prices.

just copped three of them, Norsch, Mohnomishe and Eostre ! Happyy :))  thanks guyz for this thread

 

need sub fo cho 

Respect all round to Vod for this reissue programme. As a fellow member unable to spaff 250 bones on the full box, really happy to get the chance to buy the individuals. (Especially as im not too keen on the first few records.) Got Misfits, Assault, Flock and Gesture. Already got a few other releases on cd but pretty sad to learn there are no plans to do the next few records as well. Maybe the success of this would spur on some other label to offer Ponton and Storey et al big $$$ to repress more. Thats a long shot but anyway thx 2 VOD for this awesome release.

heres hoping for digital vinyls

Yes I was jus about to say.

Can we not just make rips for each other and then contribute the money back to ZF as a form of donation.

I missed out on all this and I'm gutted.

postage was pretty reasonable...to the UK anyway.

Spent the last week down a Zoviet France rabbit hole after first picking up Mohnomishe.  Assault and Mirage and Eostre also sounding amazing (can't really get my head round Loh Land though.)

if someone know where to buy the digital discography of ZF (yes, I doubt such a thing exist but still...) 

Great news! Too bad I'm kinda broke atm. That would be a great present for myself. This music defined a part of my life.

Thanks for the heads up - will keep an eye out in May then.

I need this.
