Do you think the release for September October is plausible?

I'm really glad

I hope the vinyl record doesn't delay the release.

I’m not totally sure how the prioritisation of vinyl production works. I don’t know whether it is on a purely first come first serve basis, or whether major labels and their artists get first dibs on production slots (i.e. they are able to jump the queue, as it were). For instance, Guy decided not to release a vinyl edition of Anomaly, not only because of costs but also because of the amount of time he’d have to wait before copies could be manufactured. It may be that higher profile artists like Mark don’t have to worry so much about these production lead-in times.

If they have everything scheduled, they might have a slot reserved for production even they don't have the record ready, for example, they might have a slot on September to be produced and the record should be ready one month before, I guess, is just an example as I don't know how it works exactly...

I don't know why it is an issue if the Vinyl is not ready at the same time as the CD and digital, as long as those formats are available, a delay in Vinyl for me is ok.

It is for you, it might be for me, but record companies like to offer all formats at the same time.

I know sometimes they release them at different dates but, thinking MK doesn't need to release anything as fast as possible, they are going to wait until all formats can be released at the same time for sure.

I'm afraid so yes

[Robson]

I believe the new album will be released this year. I wonder when we'll hear the first single. The first song.

[GIUMK]

Yes, I also think the new album will come out this year.  More than the first single I think we will listen to a lead single, the other singles will be support.

[Robson]

Lead single?

[jf9081]

hopefully the album comes out in september, the single would come out about two months earlier so probably in july.

[KnopfleRick]

The release has to be this year or I'm going insane.
