Good question, I broke down and preordered from amazon. Was hoping to order from his website (and maybe get an mp3 of I'm Not The Loving Kind w/ purchase and perhaps bonus material?), but no such luck, there's still time for that I guess just figured it would have been offered by now.

CD and/or Vinyl: www.amazon.com/Imitations-Mark-Lanegan/dp/B00E7NIQDO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377129215&sr=8-1&keywords=mark+lanegan+imitations

If someone finds something better, please post!

I actually emailed the good people at Heavenly (UK and EU vinyl pressing) to see if they would have anything exclusive or when they expected to have it up for pre-order on their website, but nobody responded at all....very lame. Their last release of Black Pudding had nothing special at all for the vinyl pressing, so I'm guessing the same for this record. I also tried to reach Vagrant (US verision), but I couldn't find anyway on their website to contact anyone...pretty sad affairs on the Vagrantrecords.com website.

Anyways....here are a few places to purchase Imitations from.

Amazon UK:

www.amazon.co.uk/Imitations-VINYL-Mark-Lanegan/dp/B00E0G5TJ2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1375590763&sr=8-1&keywords=imitations+vinyl

Amazon US:

www.amazon.com/Imitations-Mark-Lanegan/dp/B00E7NIYCW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1375590815&sr=8-4&keywords=mark+lanegan+imitations

Piccadilly Records now has it for £18.99/9.99 (cheaper than most - Amazon UK doesn't add VAT until checkout, and doesn't pay it at all... grr), CD with vinyl confirmed.

Sadly, it looks like UK vinyl pricing is becoming increasingly tilted towards Special Edition prices whether it's 'special' or not, paying in £ the same figure (or more) that the US pays in $...

It's 9.99 on the US Amazon. Unless a exclusive appears in the next few weeks that's where I'll order it from since I'll get it day of release in my mailbox.

Album previews available from the iTunes store, apparently. Free download of "I'm Not The Loving Kind", should you preorder it from there.

[wheels132]

No previews on US iTunes (thankfully cause I'm weak and would listen), but you can purchase I'm Not The Loving Kind. Thanks for the heads up

Heavenly now have it in their own store for £14.99(v) and £9.99(CD) here.

Looks like there are previews on that site under the 'Download Album' section.

Correct! You Only Live Twice is pretty special...

Guessing (due to it being £5 cheaper than most places and the usual way that Greedbag operates) it'll be download through the GBag account.

Ugh gonna try to avoid listening! Hopefully I'll hear the whole album soon enough. Amazon US selling for $9.99.

Do we know if the Heavenly preorder vinyl includes a CD or download code?

Yes, good question. I'd also like to know this.

If it does, it's a great deal. If not, I'd rather either spend less and just get the CD... or possibly spend a few quid extra and get the vinyl with CD that (I think) was mentioned elsewhere...

Clips sound good, thanks

Have asked the question. Piccadilly and Recordstore both state in their preorder info that theirs do, Amazon doesn't state anything - but they (or at least the UK site) have that AutoRip now where anything you buy (or have bought since 2010) is available for download from them for free anyway.



It does pose an interesting thing about how vinyl is sold though: maybe future releases should come with a staggered price range for whether it comes with a solid or digital 2nd format, or even none at all. Might help bring the price down a bit

A reply!
All vinyl copies of Imitations from Heavenly come with a CD insert.
