As some of you may know in 2020 Joey Riot did a Kicksterter for his new album. A few of the backer rewards included the Lethal Theory Digital Catalogue. With the description. quote:
"Pledging for this award you will get all the tracks ever released on the label + all the Powerstomp tracks in digital format!"
Sadly when this reward was released in January this year it wasn't complete. There was a huge amount of things missing and the folder was a mess. Containing in some cases 9 copies of the same track in various states and formats. There was production stuff. Unfinished tracks and a spreadsheet claiming to have all the releases listed and was again far, far from that.
So I have made it my mission to complete and catalogue this label. With the goal of presenting Joey and Kurt with their 100% complete catalogue in the best quality possible.
This is not for piracy. I will not be uploading this to any dodgy sites. This is for Joey and Kurt to do with as they wish. I will only ask they give this collection to the backers who paid for it.
I have been working on this with people for 8 months now and we have reached a point where it's almost done but we need help sourcing the last few tracks from the Lethal Theory Digital releases. I believe LTD092 to be the very last Lethal Theory Digital release but am not sure. We also need help sourcing more information on 2 missing LTR catalogue numbers LTR057 & LTR058.
Additionally we have discovered Lethal Theory RAW to be a lot bigger than what is listed on Discogs. We are looking for any info on what was released. And missing files if we do not have them.
I have made a spreadsheet of all we have so far. Note! I personally own the Lethal Theory CDs and have ripped them bit perfectly. I am slowly adding them to the spreadsheet. Lethal Theory Raw releases are at the bottom.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QKbSr5NAZxSnCrfmadN0w0XJIr3UfOKuqa0jLCLbABo/edit?usp=sharing
If you have any of the missing tracks or if you have any info on catalogue numbers we don't have listed please get in touch. Also if you have a Lethal Theory, Lethal Theory Digital or Lethal Theory RAW folder we would love a screenshot to allow us to try and gather more information. Mostly catalogue numbers and what was on that label. Or even if you have screenshots of the serious sounds pages. We have trawled through the Archive.org pages and I have been going through the website code to discover the release order of things.
But we still need more info and files.
Thanks for reading and I hope to be able to fully complete this piece of hardcore history before it's lost forever.

Thank you. Everything will be helpful and is appreciated. :) Once this project is done I have other labels lined up for the same treatment.

Joey should have said the same thing HU and VG said about the VinylGroover bundle. "Releasing all we got"

I believe Joey thought he gave everything. The folder was 109GB. The Spreadsheet only included most of the LTR releases. Completely glossing over the existence of Lethal Theory Digital. They wrote a new heading For Lethal Theory RAW but gave up there. Additionally the information they did have on Lethal Theory Digital was inaccurately classified as LTR. For example they have LTR066A1 As Joey Riot?vs?Technotrance - YRS Stomp3. That should be LTD066. They fooled me for a long time by adding in some LTD releases with XX on the end of the wrong catalogue number. They start this with LTR050XX Seduction &?Joey Riot?vs?Kurt - Don't Hold The Bassline. Which again should be LTD050. Some rows on the spreadsheet are coloured grey. Why? No one knows they didn't add a key.
My spreadsheet has a key for things. Also there is a random red line part way down. Just for fun I guess. :)

I believe some of the LTD were on vinyl/LTR as well, and vice versa.

Yes this is true. I have noted that in the duplicates tab. Additionally it seems Talk To Andy was originally released on Lethal Theory RAW.

Talk To Andy was released on a Lethal Theory vinyl mate, https://www.discogs.com/Various-Dont-****-With-The-DJ/release/2562841 It's one vinyl i wished i had picked up now when it originally came out. I'm unsure how i missed it actually as i was still buying vinyl then before going digital.....

Correct. However according to this it was also put up on Lethal Theory RAW as an MP3. https://web.archive.org/web/20101201092046/ href="http://www.serioussounds.net/shop.php/lethal-theory-raw/lethal-theory-raw-forth-coming/c_202.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.serioussounds.net/shop.php/lethal-theory-raw/lethal-theory-raw-forth-coming/c_202.html
I thought this was first but because wee have no accurate vinyl release date the vinyl may of been first then the digital on Lethal Theory RAW a few months later.

Ah, I remember serious sounds, i think it's where i purchased my first bunch of tunes digitally! Was it owned by Joey Riot? You've done some serious research into this mate!

I am not sure who owned it. But I don't think it was Joey.
Yeah we have been digging very deep. This wouldn't of happened without Archive.org.
Anyone want some nostalgia?

It's a massive puzzle and we are getting closer and closer every day to completing it.
I am just adding more of the CDs I ripped last week.
Shame most of the mixes on their HU CDs are all sourced from MP3s.

Serious Sounds was run by either Joey or Kurt. At first it was basically just Lethal Theory, but then some other labels put their stuff on there.

I have reorganised the spreadsheet. Each sheet contains the different Lethal Theory labels and various other things.
Only missing a few files and releases from Lethal Theory Digital.

I can inform you this is incorrect. Joey nor Kurt ran that website.
