btw - what's up with the NO online people actually bitching about the tracks being released on vinyl? I mean COME ON! kinda why I don't post on their MB, that and well - I don't have the time to go to tons of different MB's

yeah I've posted a few times there recently...
New Order basically created the 12" as a format, and now fans are bitching that they are releasing stuff they basically have already, on vinyl again...come on NO fans...stop moaning, vinyl sales are on the rise and NO are just recognising that fact...i can't believe some have thrown out their record players...what did they stop buying vinyl and throw away their players as soon as New Order went CD???
anyway, its the US fans who are most up in arms, as its a UK only release...
from what i can tell...12x12" is still go for the end of Feb...
Turn will NOT be released as scheduled, but may be later.
how i read it - it won't be released at all....i don't think WFTSC was that well received as a single...especially the way they released it (only on 7" vinyl!).
Guilt was scheduled for US release, but i'm not sure its actually come out fully yet, i think it was promo only, i doubt that will see a full release either...if its not out yet.
So we've had Krafty (full UK & US release), Jetstream (full UK & US release), WFTSC (odd format UK, partial format US release), Guilt (US promo only release) & Turn (scheduled UK release) plus the 12 x 12" set (UK only release)
to be honest i think Warners & London's handling of this project is bollocks...and they didn't have a plan to start with and seem to be making it up as they go along, although its not unusual in NO's long history to be a bit blase about their releases....look at the loses they made on Blue Monday!
