Paragon of Dissonance 3LP re-issue facing further delays at the Pressing Plant, update from The Vinyl Division
A very much needed update on Esoteric's 'Paragon of Dissonance' reissue after some weeks of waiting for them.The massive amount of work at pressing plant is still blocking a fixed release date but I expect these to be ready here sometime in Spring. The multiple issues with first pressing plant and moving to Record Industry gave us, band and label, the opportunity to go back to our original choice of marbled vinyl instead of plain blue.Everyone who preordered the blue vinyl will have this new marble 3LP instead and, given the rise of cost on vinyl production we might need to set up a higher sale price for this album on a later date. Will keep you posted on this.Sorry again for all inconveniences. Have a bunch of releases in production at pressing plant that cannot be announced yet due to uncertainty on turnaround times. Maybe 2022 will see some better news!
