I know I know. I mean the release. It could be like somebody mentioned that they release it before the actual sale - maybe at least a teaser.
Kinda hard to believe we have wait another 30 days...the single will drop before that and preorder too. The rest of the world gets everything before we do but not 30 days lol
That May 30th date is obviously for some international countries, the United States will have a new single and album preorder in the next 2 weeks.
SuperXero, you think? That be cool, I've never made it to an LP album release fresh without hearing a the singles first lol Zero willpower when it comes to LP, dating back to HT original release.
No information whatsoever from the band. That 30th may release date on the european Warner sites. That lack of any news that is slowly killing any remaining hype. I'd like to be surprised though, but I doubt it.
I think the bigger question here is why are the international pre-orders live and the US ones haven't even been spoken of by the band or WB or anyone else from the LP camp? What is holding that up? Edit: Are all international pre-orders live or just the 2-3 that we had news posts about? These were confirmed by LP's facebook but nothing else. Seems strange >.>
My best guess is that the US pre-orders will be a unique packaging not shipped internationally, not a different version of the album but an overall presentation unique to the US which just hasn't been finalized yet.
They were quite about GATS too. It wouldnt show up on Spotify if it werent coming soon. Some said in the shoutbox last night said that the longest a song has been on Spotify but not playable was a week (and that was an Arcade Fire album) Someone also said they know someone who works at spotify and it often takes a couple days between putting up and making it active to hear. I still have faith for this week
This is what I'm also questioning. There has to be some reason US pre-orders aren't live yet. I'm still betting on it being some sort of technical or distribution problems. Otherwise, I think we'd at least have some information on when US pre-orders will start. It's like they're hesitant to even mention US pre-orders cause they don't know when they can fix whatever issues they're having with it. Just a theory...
Yeah it seems odd that US pre-orders arent being mentioned at all. And Spotify was only Europe, Amazon was Europe. Nothing from the US. So weird. Maybe there is a problem going on? although that would be weird since LP should know what they are doing. Unless its a problem because of features and they cant get clearance? idk, just speculating.
The uploaded clip of Rob drumming didn't sound like from GATS. I thought that would be the hint of UIG coming but I think his playing was too fast based on the track descriptions of it. If it doesn't come out tonight then who knows when it will. I hope it does because this is getting annoying lol
