Benjamin Breeg single delayed?

Forostar

Ancient Mariner
Anyone got it yet? One day after the release date, still no single in the cd stores in my town (Netherlands).

Greets,

Forostar
 
I couldn't find it anywhere in my town either so I just ordered it from a rainforest online supermarket ;)
 
I got it today.
I live in Sweden and I pre-ordered mine from Cdon.com.
I have only listened to it once and it sounded really good, better than the stream version that we´ve all heard.
The B-side, HTBN, well what to say. It has a very strong live-feeling to it (probably because they recorded it that way, duh!). The most surprising thing was Bruce vocals, they´re awesome! I´m not saying he´s bad normal but I really like his work here. And that "Thank you, ha ha ha" in the end was so cool! :)
Sometimes some lead guitars aren´t as loud as they should be, but it´s a b-side, what can you expect.
Anyway, I´m really looking forward to the full lenght album, more than ever after this!
 
apparently it has been pushed back in NL to the 17th. Just like the vinyl in Germany. Don't ask me why, but that's the info I got

How does it sound from your stereo? And the b-side?
From my understanding, there were to be three B-sides.  "The Trooper" and "RttH" were to be added aswell to make up the remainder of the BBC sessions I think.  That is what Amazon thinks anyway :huh:

It's out in Sweden today, mate. My daughter bought it this afternoon -_-

Strange...My local stores say they get it tomorrow and neither www.Ginza.se or www.cdon.com sell it, you can just reserve it there...So, I just wonder, where did she buy it then? In Stockholm? It arrives there earlier than in Eskilstuna I guess...
 
Cdon.com shipped my ex yesterday mate!  -_-
As I previously posted, It arrived today.
(Yes I live in Sweden)
Don´t know about Ginza, but if you pre-ordered it from cdon you should have got it today.
I think the official swedish release is tomorrow though some stores might already be selling it.
Since I preordered AMOFAD from cdon.com too I´m expecting it to arrive one day before the official release date. ;)

As far as the trooper and run to the hills, they´re not on the CD release, only on the Vinyl release.

Now I´m listening for the 3rd time and I´m really starting to get into this song, it´s simply awesome! ^_^

I think Amazon are falsely advertising the CD version of the single.  Meh, I couldn't care less :P

In Canada it's still not in stores.

Yes, it is. I went to HMV yesterday (well...12:45am over here :P) and they had the single in their system. Zero at that store (small one), so I guess I'll have to go the big one in downtown Montreal to get it. I might also stop at www.labyrintherock.com to get more Iron Maiden t-shirt(s) or other stuff...

She bought it in a record store in Halmstad. Only Hallowed BBC sessions on the B side, though...
 
Anyone in the UK have the 10" clear vinyl.

Right at the end of the trooper (well just after the singing stops), mine jumps and misses a few seconds because of it.  I have tried 4 copies and all of them do this, so not sure if it is my record player or a pressing problem with the record.  It also says 33rpm but actually needs to be played at 45rpm.

Anyone else have the skipping problem?
 
I finally have the cd-single. Yesterday I bought it. Great artwork !
The inside painting was done by Benjamin Breeg ! :)

Like Perun mentioned, a heavy bass - pretty strong in the mix !
The drums are EXCELLENT in the mix. I hear a lot of high-hat stuff for the first time.

Yesterday I informed in a local cd store for the vinyl single but the surprising answer was that it might not be possible to order it anymore?! Still an attempt was made, so I am curious about that.
