BigSeth Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 These ridiculous vinyl delays are close to the worst shit I've ever had to deal with in all the time we've been doing the label. I feel like they are inevitable. If I pre order something, I expect delays. It sucks but that's just how it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattisr1984 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 i dont really like making "lists" per say but this is easily my favorite post-you fail me converge album. verdict is out on how it stacks up with the rest because ive spent so much other time with those records. in any case - favorite album of the year for sure.

jeffnovak Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 The re-recorded versions of On My Shield, Runaway and No Light Escapes are killer, as is the rest of the album. I can't wait to get the LP in, but the CD will suffice for now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I have been given the official go ahead from our friends at King's Road to let you people know that the download will be going out tomorrow. Stay tuned. Is this only if you ordered the record from KR? I ordered all my copies from DW and still hoping for a DL today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazydiamond Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I got 2 e-mails and I bought one copy. Anybody want one??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecream Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 man hopefully the price drops on that book a little bit or a more expansive book of jacob's work is released at some point. I already bought two copies on lp so i really have no need for a cd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devils19901 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Just got my download link... I can say after one listen this is my new favorite Converge album. This album is a beautiful work of art and I can't wait to SPIN this!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tre Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I started seeing people talk about getting the emails from King's Road around 6 or so hours ago - 6-7pm EST. I can say that my test email from them came thru at about 11:45pm EST so they are getting out there, it's taking time to get thru them all. I am not sure of the process, but I know that it does take some time for them all to go out. In regards to vinyl shipping, it's all up in the air right now. There is NO current reliable ETA at all. I don't want to estimate, guestimate, or even give a ball park time frame because all dates for ALL vinyl projects keep getting pushed back and back and back.

Is it a new plant, that's causing the issues? This bloooooows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tre Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 This is apparently / allegedly / probably the problem... There are other factors that are leading to other plants having issues these days. I've heard the one place that makes the metal parts for most of the plants shut down for a vacation and that screwed some pooches, though that would not affect us. Basically, it's just that everyone is making vinyl again, and the plants just can't keep up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I was going to say this in the Smashing Pumpkins thread in regard to another mention of them but I'll take the opportunity to say it in this one: Fuck the Beatles. They contributed a lot to pop and Rock as we know it today and all that noise but seriously, fuck them. They're music is everywhere. These represses are ridiculous and are all being bounced to digital before they go to the press anyway. throwgncpr and bluessinger 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
