More about Hey Mercedes delayed Album...

"Once again, straigth from Hey Mercedes mailing list, more news about their upcoming album and their label legal issues..." Click below for the statement from the band.

"Hey Gang,

The album is obviously not coming out on the 7th. Vagrant emailed me and
informed me that is was due to production issues and legal issues, most of
which have nothing to do with Hey Mercedes but everything to do with the
label (you may have noticed the label's website being closed down
recently). I have been assured that it will be out very soon, before or by
September, beginning of September at the latest. The reason Bob hasn't
changed it on the site is probably due to his being on tour and, honestly,
his general lazyness about website stuff.
CDNow and Amazon have both let me know that the reason that you can't
preorder stuff is due to the fact that a release date is not known. As soon
an Vagrant gets a release date out, you will be able to preorder the album.
Just keep an eye out! CDNow will carry the vinyl as well as the CD, Amazon
so far is only planning to carry the CD. Also Vagrant is very aggressively
getting their new releases into stores, so I would think you could find the
new release in a store near you on street date. If not, ask around at your
local CD store when a release date is announced.
As soon as I hear something I will let you know! Truth is even the band
knows nothing at this point. I'm sure the album will be well worth the
wait.
For now, we'll listen to the EP and see them on tour!
Email soon.
Take care,

Nick
