Hey Jsem:

Sorry that you haven't received yours yet. The US Post Office has been brutally slow - more so than ever. Thanks for your patience & hope it will be worth the wait!
Best,
Scott @ Lazy Bones

Oh, we have a VIP here!

Let me congratulate for the GREAT production on this record. It really sounds insanely good.

Scott S. · « **Reply #177 on:** September 18, 2013, 02:45:16 AM »

You rock, eviljust. Greatly appreciate the kind words. I'm stoked that Tony, Marco & Jordan are so happy with the record. I think we're all a bit surprised at the pretty cool reaction we're getting. But, as we all know, without you guys supporting this CD, we'd be N O W H E R E.
Best,
Scott @ Lazy Bones

Let me second that. The mix is also great and I love this record!

Well, I ordered from Sweden too, could perhaps explain the delay.

Definitely. I'm Norwegian and haven't received it yet either. I'm expecting it on Friday since it was sent two Fridays ago, the norm is 2 weeks (I just received a CD today exactly two weeks after it was sent).

Onno · « **Reply #182 on:** September 18, 2013, 09:11:34 AM »

I'm Dutch; mine passed through the LA mail processing facility or whatever it's called on the 13th. Dutch customs must have decided not to care and send it through immediately instead of holding on to it for a few days.

With the tracking service of USPS, they seem to not even have shipped it yet. Or am I reading this wrong?

First-Class Package International Service

Onno · « **Reply #184 on:** September 18, 2013, 02:00:37 PM »

I think you're right, sadly. Though I must say that the tracking info for mine wasn't updated after the sorting facility, though it should have been.

ColdFireYYZ · « **Reply #185 on:** September 18, 2013, 02:10:16 PM »

This album is fantastic!! I knew it would be good given the lineup, but it really surpassed my expectations. Haven't watched the DVD yet, so I may do so tonight.

Scott S. · « **Reply #186 on:** September 18, 2013, 02:34:00 PM »

Hey Guys:

For those of you that haven't yet received the LMR CD (or CD & DVD)...since I don't know your particular order #, please e-mail me directly @ scott@lazybones.com & let me know your order #. We'll do our best to track it down. Again, for those outside the U.S., it's taking about 2-3 weeks to receive from the time of us shipping. Sorry again for the hassles.
Best,
Scott @ Lazy Bones

Scott,

I haven´t heard the CD yet, but your messages here on the forum cerrtainly take Customer Relationship Management to a new level. Thanks!

Wow, I just can't stop listening to this. Still discovering new things every listen, amazing!

In other words, most of the album

Scott S. · « **Reply #196 on:** September 19, 2013, 06:47:25 PM »

DUDES!

Incredibly happy w. the feedback here. Can't say it enough - thanks for supporting the record. STOKED!!!!

Best,

rumborak · « **Reply #197 on:** September 19, 2013, 09:44:14 PM »

I have to personally admit that I listened to a version of the album through, erm, unsavory channels. However, about three songs in I decided "whoa, this needs to be purchased".

nikatapi · « **Reply #198 on:** September 20, 2013, 02:56:42 AM »

Holy shit, this album is so good! I'm so impressed with how groovy and melodic the songs are!
I think this might end up being even better than the new DT for me.
We need more JR like this. He really makes the difference.

Well you can't compare. I mean, there's a whole different context and perspective. JR has done a great job here and unleashed his creative force in a different way he used to in a DT album. You have this jazzy/fusion vibe all around the record that pushes him in another musical dimension. In Dream Theater he needs to focus on specific stuff and need to have confrontation with other 4 guys that have the same goal as you.

Yeah for sure it is a different kind of sound, but still i was very impressed with some of his parts on this album, it would be brave for DT to branch out to different directions, but still i'm enjoying both albums.

rumborak · « **Reply #201 on:** September 24, 2013, 09:24:04 AM »

W00t, got my copy in the mail yesterday! At work right now, listening to it. Aweeeesome, some really cool tracks.

And yeah, I agree, JR is magnificent on it.

Another comment: After all these discussions about drum sounds, is sooo refreshing to hear Marco's drums. I mean, they actually sound like drums.

rumborak · « **Reply #204 on:** September 27, 2013, 09:02:51 PM »

The thing is, the albums that really have moved me over the last few months have been Steven Wilson's TRTRTS and Opeth's Heritage. Both albums have a natural, organic drum sound. Frankly, that's why I connect with LMR and find DT12 "artificial"in a sense.

Crow · « **Reply #205 on:** September 27, 2013, 11:06:29 PM »

boo. ordered this from amazon at the same time as Haken and DT and wanted them all shipped together but they just messaged me and said they were only shipping the other two right now (fortunately not charging me extra for separate shipping)
I was legitimately most excited for this out of those three though so that's disappointing.
Already have a digital rip of DT anyways, so

I agree with all of this, except for DT12... I think this is the reason I can't connect with DT12... Heritage and TRtRtS, on the other hand, have such a great organic tone; it's extremely refreshing.

Given all the music I am currently trying to digest I haven't been able to listen to this nearly as much as I would have hoped, but loving it so far.

Dellers · « **Reply #208 on:** September 28, 2013, 04:56:22 PM »

I'm starting to think that some mail company has lost mine. It's been more than three weeks, and I've never seen any package take that long and actually make it all the way here (the norm is two weeks with snail mail, one if I pay more). More than three weeks has always equaled lost package up to now, so I kinda fear that I won't be able to hear this anytime soon.

Scott S. · « **Reply #209 on:** September 28, 2013, 05:52:20 PM »

Hi Dellers:

Scott from Lazy Bones Recordings here. I'm so sorry you have yet to receive your LMR CD. The U.S. Post office has been shockingly slow in their deliveries outside the U.S. Please e-mail me @ scott@lazybones.com & we can at least try to trace your order. When you e-mail me, please also include your order #. For anyone else on this board that hasn't received your CD, please let me know. Again, total apologies. (If anyone wants to take over the U.S. Post office & is COMPETENT, you could make millions).
