Sorry, stupid quote boxes! 

Thanks for the info, got my order in on Amazon.com but will keep an eye out for anything in the EU.

Awesome, thank you! Managed to cancel my order with Sumerian via email and have put in a new order via the Periphery store as the shipping is cheaper (and I much prefer their variant). Happy days! 

Edit: also, why are people saying it's a single LP when the mock ups clearly show it as a 2 LP? Have I missed something somewhere? 

I'm still getting this issue on Chrome via Android as well. It honestly impacts on me commenting around here as much because half the time I simply can't get rid of the quote box. I used to chat around here a fair amount before the site upgrade, and then the quote box issue happened and I stopped bothering...

Ordered with $23 just for shipping, but I refuse to miss this one.

Feel like I'll be kicking myself in six weeks when they announce a standard black at every Amazon store!

Yes!! At last!! 

Edit: $23 for shipping to the UK. Wtf!

hopefully we will get as daylight dies or the end of heartache repress...because howard > jesse

Blasphemy! 

Yeah having just looked, it's $24 shipped to the UK. I'll hold out for some UK stock, or AMAZON USA to get it in or something. 

Yes!!! Finally! I was literally wondering this week if it would ever be pressed. Definitely in for this. 

Oh I'm so in for Silent Hill, at last! Still waiting on Super Castlevania IV as well though. 

Oh baby!

That was my concern also, I really happy the overall package and pressing quality continues to be of the same standard at least! 

I do feel like there's been a heavy push to reissue the entire PT catalogue lately, maybe Deadwing is on the horizon at last... 

Man,  I have no idea! 

Edit: oh wow, 1, 000 posts! 

Meant to share this on here as I thought it might make a few people chuckle. A friend I've known since school is doing a tattoo apprenticeship at the moment, and I promised him we'd do something fun once he's ready. I got this done about a week ago, the photo was obviously taken just after we finished and is a bit swollen etc...

OK, so I know this is a little bit of optimism on my part, and is also probably a little bit early to even speculate, but I just saw this and it got me thinking:

http://teamrock.com/news/2017-04-05/steven-wilson-signs-new-deal-for-next-album

So Steven Wilson has signed to Caroline International, part of the Universal Music Group. 

The rights to Deadwing are owned by Lava Records, who are again part of the Universal Music Group. 

I know from previous comments that the reason we've not seen a repress is potentially because of rights issues around Deadwing, and the likelihood that Universal weren't going to repress one single album by a now defunct band that they have no real interest in. However, this could be seen as a "foot in the door" and an opportunity for Deadwing to finally get a repress as they now have an interest in promoting SW.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I was interested to see what anyone else thought. I know there are a few Steven Wilson/Porcupine Tree fans around here.

Cancelled my amazon order and went with the orange splatter instead! Couldn't resist! 

After a couple more listens I agree it's not bad. Certainly not the best they've made, but then that's not a bad thing. I think it's a bit of a grower for me, so I'll probably pick it up when it's on sale or something. 

What are people's thoughts on this then? Gave it a listen through Spotify and can't say I was blown away. I actually enjoyed OMRTS quite a bit, but this just feels a bit flat. Maybe it needs another couple of listens...

Hmm, I may stick with my black via Amazon then. Works out cheaper as I have Prime, and I don't have to pay now. 

Looking forward to this album though! 

Wow, good find! Tempted to cancel with Amazon and grab one of the splatters. Any idea on pressing numbers? 

Just spotted this up on Amazon UK. I know there are a few Sikth fans kicking around here and couldn't see this posted yet. Looks like it's their new album. Releasing June 2nd...

Two tracks out on Spotify and Google Music so far; No Wishbones, and Vivid.

I mean, we've waited this long. I'm sure they'll press enough that this shit is on the Deals at Amazon thread in a couple of years. I'll snag a black copy then for a pint of blood and two deer skins (at the rate my country is devolving). 

Ha, and I thought the UK was the only place going to shit. At least we're not alone! 

Anyway, they know this thing will sell a hell of a lot, so I fully expect them to milk this for all its worth.

ALL OF EUROPE is getting 500 copies of the RSD version, so you might, ya know, get lucky?

Ha, no sweat then, I'll definitely get one! 

Think I'll hold out for the inevitable Amazon listing... 

Agreed, can we all move on now?

Can't believe I missed that pre-order window! Did anyone in Europe manage to get an order in? If so, what was the total with shipping? Just wondering if I'm better off holding out for the inevitable black copy. I want this album but I'm not paying crazy money for it.

I can't remember...with the last round of reissues, weren't the folks that got the UK versions saying the sound was much better than the US version?

I seem to remember that being the case yeah. 

For those outside the UK, Amazon UK may be the best option depending on how the pound goes once Article 50 (to begin the Brexit process) is triggered next week. I'm by no means a financial expert but you may find that these work out cheaper or about the same as US copies depending on how things go. May be something to keep an eye on...
