September is getting closer, and im getting more and more keen to cop this album in all forms...
Has anyone got any updates on release dates. Has it been pushed further back than september..usually underground hip hop has a pre-order thing up there well before it comes out...
Thanks
Tim

And secondly , will the vinyl edition of the album be available at the same exact date as the cd version?I`m getting a little worried as there are plenty of cd preorders and none of the stores offers a vinyl preorder yet... -

is there a difference in the amount you receive from record sales between retailers (independent vs chain, or say HMV vs Virgin?) and online? Itunes, Boomkat etc...?
just wanna make sure that the P benefits the most money wise from me buying the album

So yeah, Thes, without giving away dollar figures, what IS the best way for you and Big Double to make the most off of a record purchase?
If I could guess, I'd figure it's most profitable for musicians to sell records at a show, then at a brick-and-mortar, then a big chain, then online. The difference is probably nickels, but it's my guess all the same.

As far as the best place to buy it we all receive the same amount regardless of the final retail price. The thing that really matters for us is that you buy it at a place that Soundscan's the unit, because it's these figures that are used by everyone in the industry to determine when, how, who what and why when it comes to a group.
Amazon, Itunes, Best Buy etc. all scan as well as a few of the independent smaller retailers, like Amoeba - who i would have recommended but due to the current situation it's tough to say.
The important thing, and really the bottom line is that it gets bought and not dl'ed.
Thanks again to all of you - we wouldn't be here if it wasn't for yall...

I love the tracks that I heard posted on his page and I know some of it was leaked this past summer, but aside from that information has been hard to come by.
Thanks! -

Looking forward to hearing more of the new record... Can't wait to get the sale date so I can head down to Sonic Boom. -
