two months in advance.
and you have to start booking touring schedules to coincide.
and you have to arrange for press campaigns.
and stuff.
a four month lead in is generally standard.
that sounds really shit. so these bands just sit on an album for all that time? and then just play those songs for another year? lame.
this microcastles gap is especially long though right?
sometimes they tour to promote it in the space between and see what people think of the new material...which is kinda better than releasing an album anyway.
the gap with that is unusually large, but i would guess it's to fit in with the band's plans especially since bradford is doing the atlas sound thing at the moment.
october/november
or now? depending on your morals
october i think
where's jATPMie when he's actually needed?
CAN ANYONE TELL MY
is there any reason that a band would finish an album in march/april and not release it until november? it's stupid
