International release dates & pre-ordering (non-US)

[Meanmachine22]

Germany 21st !!

yeah so i will move my german ass to the record store that day .

2 days earlier than in most other countries. Maybe that has something to do with the fact that the albums will be pressed in european ( german ) factories ??

[el_loko]

I sent an e-mail to them a few days ago, no answer yet, though...

I try to call them a few minutes ago, and the guy gave me the number of their artistic departament, but I can`t reach anyone there right now because they`re out to lunch!  

[Wooody]

What about Belgium? 

[DarkFairy]

this site is claiming finland gets it on the 23rd as well! which could be true, as some stores here are open on sundays

I've been in contact with the Universal Music Brasil PR, Ana Alice Vercesi, and she said they didn't have any info yet.

But I BELIEVE it will come here by 24th, at last.

[Ulises]

No release date in Argentina confirmed at the time by Universal Music neither.

[Butch Français]

What about Belgium? 

I e-mailed Universal Belgium today. but taking into consideration the ass backwards way things work in this country, I don't expect to hear anything until a month after I have actually bought the album.

Thank you voodoochild, I really appreciate it! I hope the 24th is not just for SP+RJ  as soon as I know more I will post as well. It was Saraive in Salvador that told me to call back next week.

Cheers.

[Voodoochild]

I just a call from Pinball Wizard and he said he called the International Artistic PR here and they said it's due to November 25th (subject to change) here in Brasil.

We'll get confirmation as soon as possible.

I'm from Recife (but now living in SP) and when the Live Era came out, we had it at the same time as the rest of the world. Maybe Chinese will be a bigger release here and we all could get it on the same day.

The issue with brazilian cds is the sometimes horrible quality when compared to the USA and UK ones. I bought the Brazilian version of Death Magnetic, a piece of junk. So now with CD I've already pre-ordered from amazon.co.uk, it will end up costing R$43,00. Not so expensive, as CD will probaby be costing around R$30 when it gets here...

[Voodoochild]

I don't know if its a trend. But I do know the Amazon ship won't be delivered before the Brazilian release.

If the artwork and the case sucks, then I'll buy from Amazon.
