I have decided that those crazy Eisley kids need to re-touch their old song Cobalt and put it on some b-side album...because that would be awesome.

I think they need some more a-side albums before thinking about a full release b-sides record.

I dunno ... they've been around long enough. Though it probably would be better after the 3rd album. B-side albums are good for getting a break from the studio, but keeping things out there.

For a band that has been around for a while and has THAT many unreleased songs a B-sides album wouldn't be too bad.. though to new fans that just may be absurd.

Yeah, new fans wouldn't really appreciate it fully and/or as much as older fans would.

The Cure released Join The Dots B-Sides & Rarities 1978 > 2001 The Fiction Years in 2004. Four discs, 70 songs. Could always do it that way, too (if Eisley is around that long). I paid $20 for it on ebay, but I'm sure it went for more when it came out. By waiting until near the end of their music careers to do something like this, Eisley would get the most bang for the buck. Well, unless the music industry is totally changed by that time (which it probably will be).

EP (extended play) - roughly 4-6 song record
LP (long play) - the full length album

these come from when records were released on vinyl. In the case of 7" singles,
A-Side - the single from the LP
B-side - a song record for an LP, but not put on it (so people would have a reason to buy the 7" if they already had the full length)
