No offence mate but what are you hoping to achieve with this? Do you really think AATW care what a bunch of internet forum whiners (thats all theyll see you as) want? They know that we are the minority and they can make it sell far more to the general public by adding their influence to it thus making more money, so why would they care about an online petition with 4 names on it? i know youve just started it and more people will probably put their names down, but be it 4 names or 400 names its still just as isignificent to them.

IMHO B9 had by far the best cover.

although I don't believe that this will be presented to anyone in time to make any drastic changes, put my name anyways as an overall belief that the bonkers tradition should be kept
LATININXTC
we should've started this months ago, seeing as some of us had the feeling that they were gonna totally change bonkers around

that was my thoughts, we already know sharkeys mix is done so the chances are the artwork has been started as well, you guys are just gonna have to grit your teeth & hope aatw stick with what 'was' traditionally bonkers.
lets wait for it to come out & then make a judgement huh?

Since when has an orginization like AATW done what was "best" for the ravers? Theyll do whats best for their wallets, if that means breaking this tradition i cant see em giving two shits.

we arent judging it.. we are simply attempting to ensure it becomes a GOOD album

when they released "N Trance - Set You Free" back in 1992? that was a good thing for ravers :)
unless the tracklisting is absolutly amazing - im not in favour of giving it "18"

Think how many people have bought any of the Clubland X-Treme Hardcore series, how much that earned AATW. Think of the cost of designing, printing etc TWO different lots of artwork chances are they will be in the last stages of this by now, so include all the hastle as well as the cost.
Think how much re-branding it will earn them from the general public. Theyll see a shiny new album from the makers of Clubland, with a scantaly clad woman on the front and remixes of chart music in the tracklist. As apose to a series that's been going for 17 previous editions without them noticing it, or if they have noticed they havent liked it, with childish cartoon sketches on the covers, containing music they cant relate to because there's no Basshunter. So, given the choice, theyll take the former dont you think? So, then add all that extra money from your average joe whos never heard of Bonkers before.
Add all those factors up, now take away 10 pounds or so for all the people on here who wont be buying it....... putting yourself in AATWs shoes, making a BUSINESS decision - cos thats what it is - what would you do?
Im sorry if this is coming off rather twatish (im pretty sure it is), but there's nothing we can do.
People unfortunately need to move on. Bonkers may be dead and we just got to accept it and look for else is out there. That being Hardcore Underground.
Wow i actually answered some of my own queries about what the hell AATW are doing lol.
