Updated text on the Dine Alone product detail page: "Please note that this is a pre-order item with an estimated shipping date of October 2022. "

Thanx Well, at least it's still on. But not much clearer about any expected date here.

Has anyone heard any update from Dine Alone/New Damage on the shipping date? Their webstore still lists the record as preorder with shipping in June. Pretty tight schedule from today's perspective... 😕

Worldwide PO overview including variant overkill: 20 (!) variants in total https://parkwaydriverock.com/ As far as I've checked, all variants are /500 except standard black EDIT: PI published (I'm not copying 20 variants by hand...), most EU variants /500, Aussie variants /400, black unlimited

Dine Alone pressing has been delayed. Bummer. After a few spins from streaming services, I'm really looking forward to my physical copy. Catchy, heavy, all CBK but far from boring repetition of their backcatalogue

I'm pretty sure, tradelists are not available, yet. Only the collection URLs are working again for the time being. Actually, with the "Haves" and the "Wants" tabs. Although, the "for sale" icon is active already.

https://deadformat.com/collection/xtobiwanx This gives me chills to revisit my collection at that point of time. Sometimes I regret, I've sold the major part of my KTD and Converge collection since then...

Update: These are the Nuclear Blast variants: 300 - Dark Red / Yellow https://www.nuclearblast.de/veinfm-this-world-is-going-to-ruin-you-darkredyellow-vinyl-lp-dunkelrotgelb-306119 1000 - Red https://www.nuclearblast.de/veinfm-this-world-is-going-to-ruin-you-red-vinyl-lp-rot-306118

There seem to be 2 more unlisted variants on Evil Greed (3rd and 4th pic): ??? - Dark Red / Yellow ??? - Red

Thanks. seems like shipping to Europe is disabled on Closed Casket and bandcamp as well.

The second single is actually a let own. Clean vocals are way too loud and present. I really liked that they were put more in the background on the title track. What can we expect from the other 9 tracks?

Given the US numbers, I would assume also /1000 each

the video is great fun, for sure! musically, the first 30sec was the best stuff I've heard from them since their reunion, though... still sticking to the originals from 20 years ago.

same message for any combination of email/password, not necessarily the old credentials

glad, I've never removed the DF link from my footer...

I received a reviewer copy, which is on heavy rotation for weeks now. Personally, this record is a candidate for my record of the year. Awesome stuff!

Deathwish https://deathwishinc.com/collections/touche-amore/products/touche-amore-lament Deathwish Exclusive Translucent Blood Red Vinyl Limited to 500 copies

Yeah, they didn‘t handle it well. Just retweeting his posts yesterday without statement from the band was not professional. Now just firing him gives also the impression they just want to save what‘s left. I guess a lot of dirt will surface the next days... out of curiosity: are we talking about a single incident (which would be bad enough) or a systematic behavior of members of the band?

At the same time they admitted they knew the accusations all the way long and didn‘t dig into it...

What's with the release strategy of variants for this release? I don't get it, why there is a staggered release of so many different limited variants. Are these all first press or have we silently gone to second or third press here? Why not make them all available at the same time? For all we know, we have now: standard black /??? grey-mix color /??? (band store exclusive, sold out quickly) translucent purple & yellow splatter /??? (band store exclusive, available) white/orange splatter /500 (Impericon exclusive, sold out) white/green splatter /500 (Impericon exclusive, sold out) blue & white with black splatter moon phase /500 (Impericon exclusive, available) opaque magenta /??? (Indie store version? available) yellow blue butterfly /??? (Kings Road, available) green & yellow mix /??? (Australia exclusive, available) coke bottle clear /what was that 100? 200? (Violent Gentlemen bundle exclusive, sold out) white/blue splatter /300 (EMP exclusive, available) These are also the same 11 variants on the picture from Epitaph linked above.

And that‘s about the business part in here: make a nice looking variant and another rare one and then one audiophile variant. And eventually there will be at least some customers buying multiple copies. not judging anyone, we all love the hunt for gems for our collection here...

From the EU store: First pressing info: 300x Transparent w/ Splatter 200x Transparent Purple (not US version) 100x Classic Black all variants are still in stock. i understand and also dig the concept of different, limited variants. But I don‘t get why making a black one most limited, especially when the color is totally unrelated to the artwork...

from the sequence in the drop down menu I would guess, purple is the rarest color. but I think, the splatter looks far better. edit: now the sequence of the drop down menu has changed and the splatter is listed first...

The youtube videos have a smarturl link in the description, which for me lead to a German shop with a preorder for a EU exclusive black in coke bottle vinyl (no PI given). Can anyone confirm that there are other destinations for the smarturl already online? links? the PN shops still don't have any preorders available. btw: I must say, I'm a little disappointed that this is only a 7-song EP...
