@EnjoyTheRide - I understand if you can't say much yet, but is there any truth to the rumors starting to appear about Awake coming out this summer?

Not this summer but it should be out by the end of this year. We are in the process of getting everything together with the label this month

Thanks so much for the reply. Looking forward to being able to purchase it! I also concur with JayOctavarium

No problem.  I am from long island and a long time fan of the band so this is a passion project for me.

If anyone ever has any questions other than "when is this coming out", I am very accesible via email or personal message on here. I only check here every few weeks so email is a better bet.  I will do my best to post updates on the progress of the next re-issues once things start moving along.

Also- I figured now was a good time to mention this but our company is moving into a new office and selling  one of the FINAL REMAINING test presses on ebay along with some other OOP releases from our label.

All the proceeds will go to help us cover moving fee's so for those interested the link is below

I'm hoping for a high quality cover and lyrics this time.

So am I. We are going to work with a different plant this time and that is partially why this has been taking so long to get started.

We have the sound quality down but the printer that the plant was using was not up to par.

Lyrics depends on the label's guidelines for re-issues and I am waiting for an approval to include those for awake right now

[TTD]

Correct.  The label who owns the album only uses plants based on the USA since they are based in the united states.

.... but you can't tell us the European distributor(s)

[Lolzeez]

Now I WILL buy Awake on vinyl. Skipped I&W cause well,I already have the original print.

[TTD]

Since it's apparent that a limited run of 2000 isn't enough to satisfy demand, is any consideration being given to larger quantities for future releases? 3000 or more?

Planning on pressing at least 3000 this time but waiting on details to be confirmed

[JayOctavarium]

How many copies of SFAM were pressed?

That White vinyl release took very long to be ready but according to the mail-order it is on its way now. I hope it will arrive soon 

Has anyone received his yet?

This is from where I ordered my copy: https://www.ebay.com/itm/251275048155

Does any one know anything about this?

[Aquiesence]

I don't know anything official about this beside the fact that I have noticed it at Nuclear Blast mail-order.
https://www.nuclearblast.de/en/products/tontraeger/vinyl/2lp/dream-theater-six-degrees-of-inner-turbulence.html

I am sure it is an official release, I doubt Nuclear Blast would sell any kind of bootleg.

Music On Vinyl is a well known (to me at least  ) company that reissues all kinds of metal vinyls, amongst all other kinds of music of course.

Usually you may find releases from Music On Vinyl everywhere. Even local shops in Greece have releases from them. The limited ones though get sold out fast from mail-orders. I usually order my copies from Nuclear Blast.

Another link from Cargo Records. Looks like most European pressing are made by them these days.

SDOIT is gonna be a 3 LP deal

I got mine yesterday from a different source, slightly cheaper than yours, and not on eBay.

There's another seller on eBay who's already managed to sell one at £62.00, even before stock reached the UK, as far as I can gather, and that same bandit has three other copies listed, two at £59.99 and one at £79.99 !!!

[TTD]

Does any one know anything about this?

The eBay listing - "This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available."

[TL]

Man, I'd like a copy of SDOIT on vinyl, but that ebay link ends up at $70 USD after shipping and 'import fees' if you want it shipped to Canada. F that noise.

It would have been over 80GBP to get the US red or black edition of I&W shipped to Europe. That's $121 or so, compared to your transaction in the opposite direction costing you $70...

What goes around comes around.

Don't worry, they are just trying to rip people off. The description of the delisting says it is a preorder expected to come out in May. So, they aren't selling a product that is even available. I have no doubt SDOIT will be on vinyl officially soon, but probably not in 2013.

What is the point of this post? You're just being a dick for no reason. You realize I didn't personally jack up the price of shipping a vinyl from the US to Europe, right? The shipping was overpriced in both cases; it's not a competition.

Also, the one I was looking at was from the US. Shipping something like that from the US to Canada through ground shipping, especially when US domestic shipping is free (as it was on the one I was looking at), isn't usually that expensive, and almost never includes an 'export fee'.

Additionally to the links given above already (Nuclear Blast and Cargo Records; two well-known European labels), I've seen it on jpc, which is a very reliable seller. (I bought most of my DT LPs from there.) I'd be surprised if this were a fake or if there were long delays...

[TL]

First, TTD, sorry for snapping at you like that.

Second, for anyone who's interested, there are Amazon listings up now for North American buyers.

[Shadow2222]

Huh, there sure is an Amazon link, along with a label listed. Interesting. Are there two companies that will be doing DT vinyls now?

EDIT: Here it is, on the official website of that record company:

https://www.musiconvinyl.com/releases/Dream_Theater/Six_Degrees_Of_Inner_Turbulence

Even more importantly, here is a little excerpt from that webpage -

"Stay tuned, as there are more Dream Theater albums coming up on MOV!"

With this and Awake coming out later this year, the only albums remaining that don't already exist on vinyl are FII, Train of Thought, and Octavarium!

[Lolzeez]

Well,MOV is usually quite overpriced. That's a bummer. 

[Shadow2222]

@EnjoyTheRide: Was this record release known about by you? I was under the impression that ETR and Brookvale were going to be exclusively doing DT records. Is it still planned to do a SDOIT record with this news?

[LP]

Well,MOV is usually quite overpriced. That's a bummer. 

Lolzeez ir right. Unfortunately, Music On Vinyl releases are usually more expensive. The advantage is that they use better pressing plants. I had to return Scenes From A Memory twice before I got a good copy. Mine had this ''zipper'' sound in a few places. Luckily, the people at the record store were understanding.

[TL]

It looks like it's about $36 CAD on Canadian Amazon, and just shy of $50 USD on American Amazon (both have free shipping within their respective countries). Weird that the Canadian one is so much less expensive (usually the other way around), but it works out for me.

[dream416]

Just preordered mine off Amazon as well.....36 dollars CDN. Sweet 

[Mindflux]

So is this 6DOIT real or what? I'd imagine it would have to be 3 LPs
