  1. I even doubt if this will EVER get released?!
    I have never seen an album get pushed back as much as this one!

    1. Well, the initial date was only a year ago - August of 2012. Then they changed the label and then had to remix the album. Taking all these into account, it's not too long. I think there will be no more delays
