Looks like Strung Out and No Use for a Name fans will not be seeing vinyl releases for both band's upcoming albums. The label explained:

Alright…it seems that some of you are filling your diapers over the fact that we aren't putting out vinyl for the new Mad Caddies, Strung Out and No Use for a Name. Here are my two favorite bits of constructive suggestions that came into ye ol' digital complaint box, "the cunts arent gonna press this on vinyl either" and "guess I will just download it loosing money from me….". Well…we don't want your money to get any "looser" with gas prices rising and all so we thought we'd let you know that the reason we aren't putting out these records on vinyl is because they are too LONG.

The more music you stuff onto a single LP, the worse it sounds so we decided we didn't want to compromise the recording quality. Fear not because we actually have a couple of really cool secret vinyl projects coming up.

We apologize if you are bummed and as a peace offering we give to you the first Strung Out mp3 for the song Calling. I again apologize but this mp3 will not be on vinyl.

According to vinyl specialty store Vinyl Collective, the label is also not planning to license the album in any form.
