The releasedate..

[daimonion]

Is it june the 3rd or is it still somewhat uncertain? Haven't seen any official confirmation on opeth.com, so...

 

[Vile Serenity]

It's officially June 3rd.

 

[Mr. Bland]

Isn't it June 2nd in Europe?

 

[killerklown]

Is there any chance it gets moved up?

 

[Rogue Eagle]

if it was already mixed and everything a few months ago, why does it take so long!?!
I heard something about artwork or something.

But really, I'd be happy with a blank looking CD!

 

[beast from the east]

Is there any chance it gets moved up?

I highly doubt it

 

[affinityband]

pretty sure when someone announces a release date, thats the EARLIEST its released.

 

[daimonion]

Yeah.. Guess June really means August, eventually.

 

[fizz6207]

there have been instances of albums being moved up in the event it leaks really early

I had an awesome dream the other night my mate rang me up and told me that the date was moved to mid April. If we were all living in my subconscious only a month to go haha.

It is frustrating, but I think we have to remember that finishing the album/artwork is just the start from a record companies point of view. They have to make sure that the release date ties in well with press, gigs, etc. Also, they have to ensure that it doesn't clash with other RR releases or they get stretched on the promotion I'd guess..It's annoying for fans because this all sounds like "business", but...that's what it is!!!. If it wasn't done professionaly in a buisness like manner, there would be no album!

even better, mid march

better than that, it came out yesterday!

 

[in_my_time_of_disease]

^haha yeah while we are in my subconscious we may as well make the date sooner.
