Also gonna snag one from Best Buy as I don't have a copy yet, haha.

Also, the vinyl delay is a bummer but most recent update is early october now, not early november, we are planning on sending out info on it when it's solid and reliable.

Two if you count Shark Bite, which is more of a joke than anything, but there is another song we never released, theres a small snippet of it on the wrongdoers studio documentary thing that came with itunes preorders, but we have no plans to release it for various reasons.

We do have one, not sure what we are going to do with it just yet. It's a banger that didn't really fit the tone of the record so we scrapped it. But we do plan to use it for something, more than likely. Kind of an earlier song in the writing process that felt more like a Wrongdoers song.

Yeah, I think you're probably right. We were unaware of there even being a preorder up on Amazon that wasn't digital or CD so I imagine it's Solid State's variant (which is the white/purple)

Double post, whoops.

whoops.

Yeah, the iTunes issue was Sony's fault and they are voluntarily bending over backwards for us about it as that was a huge fuck up. The other leak is the mole, someone definitely gave it to someone they shouldn't have. I did have a what.cd account for a while but I'm not an active music pirater, so I wasn't able to keep it. On that same note, that market has become much smaller in the last 5 years. I think people are realizing that kinda shit can literally kill off bands now. When I was a teen that's definitely all I did, even ripped for FNT for a long time, not sure if they're still around. Anyways, It's a little soon but honestly we were expecting next week or the week after so just a little early, oh well.

Should be. I know some people have already gotten it, but it might depend on the variant as its up to those individual stores to send out the emails. Could be the merch direct ones that people have already gotten. Regardless, should be getting it soon.

Oh, no, it is. You can buy it from the link you posted, I was just pointing out that if you preordered a vinyl or cd you will get an email with it so DONT use that link. If someone has a digital preorder they would have to purchase it separately from that link.

If you pre-ordered a physical copy you should get an email with the documentary to watch immediately. Bummer about the leak, looks like we got a mole.

Ah, I see. Sean is a personal friend and not a dickhead or ego driven at all, he's oddly a big fan and coalesce has always been super cool to us. Was awesome to have him contribute his voice and write lyrics, definitely a "oh shiiitt" kinda moment. We wanted to get him on the last record but it didn't work out schedule wise, he went out of his way this time which was awesome. Coalesce4lyfe

That's surprising to me, haha.. Musically, one of the biggest influences since as far back as the Luti-Kriss days. Coalesce > everything. And Sean is my favorite vocalist in heavy music ever. His lyrics are unmatched by anyone, dude's incredible.. I used to just sit and read the lyric books, not even listening to the records sometimes. Now I'm just fan-boying, though.

Forever Hurtling Towards Andromeda ft. Sean Ingram (Coalesce) http://newnoisemagazine.com/norma-jean-stream-forever-andromeda/

New song premiering tomorrow with a special guest vocalist that I am exxxtrreeemmeely stoked on.

I hate bills, I'd love to snag this. One of my favorite records.

Thanks! I'm guessing you have an advanced copy since I know those are out now.

Oh and, I didn't want my previous post to sound like we are bummed on what we are currently selling, I think it looks great as-is. I just lurk this board and appreciate that vinyl collectors like having actual physical "art" that's as cool as the music on it (Hell, I just started collecting, I don't even have a record player, just cool to have) and we want to make that happen even if it ends up being extremely limited.

On the older stuff, neither us or T&N own those records anymore, we originally left solid state when they sold themselves, they've since become independent again (we wouldn't have signed otherwise) but yeah, didn't get those records back so I don't see that happening on our watch, and if it does they'll probably do it super lame and shitty. (see; the 20th century masters thing that came out without us knowing) Wrongdoers and meridional, we own the publishing to (lesson learned from our previous SS experience) but I'm not too business savvy so I'm not sure if that grants us the ability to repress those somewhere else. If so, we might consider it in the future. Obviously not any time soon with Polar Similar coming out.

In response to the standard vinyl release... I am in this band, and we had a ton of cool stuff we wanted to do vinyl-wise (different colored artwork covers that matched the vinyl, included pieces of feather or other objects relative to the artwork, etc, packaged in a box and more) but the 2xLP had the label skimping. But, they are open to letting us do what we want for record store day next year if these sell. So if that sounds cool, grab one of these to help us make what we really wanted to do.

I'd like to get Gambling. Been a fan since that record, never really could get into Turk Street.

Ressurecting an old thread, sorry, been lurking here forever but never posted. Figured I'd add another nebula variant to the mix..
