Album Update... what happens straight after it's done?

**Patreon only **

I now enter depression as it’s delayed until 2023 but I understand. I hope y’all tour near me in the US at least.

William Hagen

Hopefully we can at least get a single? Or at least a snippet of a full mix?

Kevin Sheehan

Super excited for the boxset/limited cover. Honestly…. All of us that collect vinyl know about the delays, and I have no issues pre-ordering and paying for the vinyl upfront… I am sure the extra capital now would really help some costs put into the new album. (Although I am sure that idea has been discussed.) it’s not that I’m impatient (maybe a little), but even the digital release to generate buzz and pre-order taking could help give an idea of pressing needs for the second run and help you guys get a head start. All of us here on Patreon believe in you guys, otherwise we wouldn’t be here, so we trust you’ll do whatever is best, but I am highly looking forward to the new album, new vinyl, and finally seeing you guys when you come to the states (have yet to see you live). Love from Florida ❤️

can’t wait to see this music video

Sven Bröker

Vinyl and boxsets… *starts throwing money at the screen* Will there be a special Patreon vinyl colour again? AND obviously that DVD! *starts throwing even more money at the screen*

Chris Bossardet

So pumped for this. Box set and vinyl sound awesome. Can't wait for next year. Hopefully we have news on the live DVD soon. ❤️

Rina Stricker

Ok, guys, just a moment pls - looking around for my time machine - have to do some jumps, don't wana wait sooooo long.

Tayin Rivera-Dorazio

I 100% expect a single from the album like they did with intra venus but I’m gonna let them surprise me, I’ve got plenty of music to tide me over until 2023

I'm curious.. Given the current situation, why would you delay your album for so long, just to be able to have vinyls released at the same time as everything else? Isn't it okay to realise an album and then later get the vinyls on the marked? As mentioned further above, everyone collecting vinyl knows about the shortage 🤷‍♀️ So.. What am I missing? 🤔🙂

Kamilla

Could you please bring Be'lakor on your headliner tour? 😁That would be nice, and then they will discover how to find Europe 🤷‍♀️😅 I am looking forward to seeing you guys again 🤘😃

There’s a lot of money involved in vinyl, and based on experience the label believes that it would be detrimental to the release if vinyl was offered later. We’ve offered alternatives however contractually the band doesn’t get the last say. Also, the labels have their own release schedules for all their releases and depends on their priorities and what they can cope with. - Xen

Dani Ravn

Thank you for the explanation, Xen. Now it makes sense, ish 🙃

Eva

Special Box Set sounds awesome. There’s always room for more artwork from Xen ☺️

Tina

Didn't watch the video (yet) because I'm afraid it will only annoy me (and I'm already annoyed from regarding the comments). Everyone, please don't blame the label for the late release. They didn't take 2 and 1/2 years to record the album.🤷‍♀️

The accumulation of different factors creates the length of time from creation to release - sadly we have had quite a few things to deal with. - Xen

well i mean last album was in 2017 or so, i don't think it's such a tragedy to take 5 years for an album! I think having more time could allow for the music to be marketed in such a way that it'll be easier to get the long deserved recognition. The right combination of factors could put NeO under the spotlight in a heartbeat: things like a good album at the right time, some cool arts, good social media/video content to trigger positive community dynamics and increase reach, the headliner tour, availability of material online, some followup material... but you really missed the opportunity to create some sweet drama with Dan leaving ahah

Kevin Sheehan

Tina, please tell us about how anything these past two years have been normal. And quick question, why are you here? Looking at your comment history, aside from the poll posts, the majority of your comments have been hella negative. (Or maybe you don’t realize how you come across?) Like all of us, the band is doing the best they can with the resources they have available to them. If you’re here to support them, then support them. If you’re here just to give them money so you can tell them how they’re doing everything wrong, then just…. Leave. I’ll double my patreon contribution to make up for your loss so the band isn’t out anything. I mean, would you sit here and blame Picasso and tell him to paint faster so paintings would be released sooner? Tina, my friend, my fellow fan, my fellow human, be happy! We are getting new music!

Tina

He Kevin, you know nothing about me, about my relation to the band, how I've supported them, how long I've supported them and how frustratingthis has been some times (and how amazingly rewarding as well). I deeply believe that fans/friends don't have to cheer all the time and tell artists/friends how great they are and that everything they do is awesome. If something is not great, it needs to be said as well. And if that's unjustified, then the band can obviously speak for themselves and tell me I'm wrong. But thanks a lot for replying to 3 of my comments! I guess you can scroll down and find more that you wish to reply to?

Kevin Sheehan

You are right. I do not know your relation to the band, and I do not know anything about you. I apologize if you feel that I assumed your character. However, if you view your comments from an objective viewpoint, perhaps you might see things through my eyes. (I don’t have the best mind to pick up sarcasm through text.) So I do apologize to you as an individual if I misinterpreted any of your prior comments. But, when the band directly makes a comment about the record label having the last say about the release date, and you blatantly tell everyone on here: “everyone, please don’t blame the label for the late release, they didn’t take 2 1/2 years to record the album” it makes it kind of difficult to appreciate your sincerity towards the band when you are telling the entire patreon fan base to blame them. These past two years have been hectic for everyone, and we have all had to learn a little patience in everything in life, much less a new song or album. I did not mean to come across as negative towards you, only defensive of the band. I could have chosen my words better. Hope you have a good day ❤️

Ok, so this thread is a little out of hand - On Patreon but we want everyone to get along - I don’t think anyone is trying to be offensive here…we all have different ways of expressing ourselves. What is done with the album is done, I personally don’t care for dwelling on the past, we had a very trying time, it’s over, I’m over it - I prefer focusing on moving forward, improving things and trying to make a far more positive environment for everyone. It’s not hard. And for everyone…If anyone has issues with band stuff, message us (Anymore comments on this thread and I will delete them FYI). Regardless, whatever support we get we truly appreciate. - Xen
