I was curious about the upcoming Diamond Eyes vinyl release. Certain online vendors that are taking pre-orders are noting that it comes on white vinyl, other sites are not. My question is...are they all going to be on white vinyl (like the Rocket Skates 7") or is there going to be a white and black pressing? Any help would be appreciated and links to any info as well.

I don't know actually. I pre-ordered it as well, hoping it i'll be white.
I hope you get it too. I pre-ordered one off a site called interpunk and they stated that it will be white vinyl. I also pre-ordered 2 copies from my local record store, but who knows if those will be white vinyl or standard black vinyl. And yes, that means I have 3 total copies coming my way...I'm a nerd.
I'm pretty sure they're all going to be white. At least the whole first press probably will be. Whether WB wants to limit this or just keep churning them out as consistently as they can, I don't know but I'm pretty sure white is the only color going out at this time.
waiting for my vinyl too. beautiful in white! :)
preorder it on warner online store
somenone received the vinyl, or the shipping mail?
i received the mail 4 days ago from warner store
Waiting on my copy from aural exploits. Should come this week. The last package they sent me got to me in like 2 days.
I'm still waiting on mine, and I'm pretty sure they'll all be white....
Where can you (pre)order from?
I'm still waiting, my buddy has it. I think it's only available on white.
Waiting for mine too...
@Martin :
You can get it from warnerbros website, or interpunk.
Maybe some other websites too...
Martin, my buddy ordered it at www.large.nl (http://www.large.nl) and got it already. Maybe the easiest for you since you're Dutch?
In Belgium the Vinyl came out the same day as the CD and they are all white! (made a few stores to check)
By the way the mastering of the vinyl is quite awesome and that makes the whole album ever better!
Cheers,
Oli
Thanks Tarkil & Sly.
Maybe I will order it at Large. How come you didn't get it yet then @Sly?
Cuz I pre-ordered it at www.bol.com (http://www.bol.com) and they are lacking... They would send it out the 18th but didn't.
My buddy got it the day after the release.
Ouch. Hope it comes in soon.
warner shipped my vinyl 5 days ago, but i live in chile, hope get it soon
I'm going to Amoeba today to buy and see if it's white vinyl.

Wow 4-6 weeks for delivery? Bol.com is starting to dissapoint me. And the record seems to be cheaper on Large.nl.
I'll check my local record store tomorrow, see if they have it or can order it for me.
BTW, that white vinyl looks...delicious! Hopefully my copy of Rocket Skates will arrive this week.
i pre ordered the vinyl on interpunk and i think i got screwed. i haven't received my shipping email and the order is still in process and i pre ordered this like 2 weeks ago.

Give them a call and have your order # with you. I've ordered from them in the past and they were legit. I got my copies from the record store today, very happy with em. They are all white for sure.

Same here, but I have this in my order status : "On Order (Expected in stock on Tuesday Jun 1, 2010)", so I guess we just need to wait a little bit more...
My interpunk vinyl has shipped.
"Hi Steve,
We'd like to notify you that on Friday May 21, 2010 we shipped order xxxxxxx to you.
Please be on the lookout for 1 package.
It was shipped via Post Office First Class Intl."
a quick question, what is that mp3 card that is with the vinyl?

Let's you download the album
My US and UK white vinyls both turned up today (Thursday)
6 days from the US not too shabby. Good packaging on both as well. Pristine!
Result.
hey defsteve, what´s the difference between US and UK vinyls?
Got mine today

Apart from the stickers being on opposite sides and one saying 'manufactured in the eu' and the other 'manufactured in the us', don't know. Both still sealed.
But still, i will need the US version also.... YEAH
mine arrived yesterday :)
Still waiting on mine...
waiting too
and waiting three...
But :
"A package was shipped from our Sterling, VA warehouse on Friday May 28, 2010"

I have a feeling that my store either lost my order in the pre-order shuffle or simply hasn't received its order of the LP from the manufacturer yet.
where you live? in my country (chile), the shippings from usa takes 2-3 weeks :o
I ordered from a place in California and I live in Illinois. Both are in the U.S. It shouldn't take that long. I still have not even received shipping confirmation so I know I'm not just waiting because its tied up in the mail. Its not even shipped. Sucks. And the same store has gotten packages to me in about 2 to 3 days.
Just contacted my store. The label hasn't sent them their order yet. I had a feeling that was the most likely issue.
finally got it and is all white!!
yay!
i received my vinil now :D all white!
I've got my 6 vinyls this week!
(http://i398.photobucket.com/albums/pp68/defalx/IMG_3383.jpg)
why six??
why not? :) one for me and five for other people
Haha and I thought I was nuts for buying 3.
i have the sticker in left side, not in the right :o
I've got my from Germany. Maybe your vinyl just from another country.

Me too, it's funny...
I just received a personalized notice from the store I ordered from that my vinyl has FINALLY shipped and I had just placed an order from another store two nights ago because I was getting nervous that I'd never get a copy so now I have two coming my way. Holy shit! That was almost a Jane Doe Part 2. By the way, I actually received one of my Jane Doe LP's before this one.
Finally! After 3 months of waiting, I got mine today :D
Where did you order from?
Crazy but from Best Buy, it was the only one that could send me the vinyl to Guatemala, It cost me $20.00
Manufactured in the Netherlands.
The Stiker on the right and says Limited Edition
i stumbled into a local record store. mostly old blues and jazz records. they had a copy of diamond eyes on vinyl, randomly. i bought it of course. it was a very nice suprise. also scored a couple elliott smith records while there.
That's

That's awesome! I have yet to see it in any of the physical vinyl carrying record stores that I frequent.

Okay so I bought one DE LP in Europe and later one in the US. Look at the differences:

One of my copies arrived today. Its amazing how clean it sounds. Not always the case with brand new vinyl but this one is exceptional. I noticed that the treble on the guitar (especially distorted guitar) seems higher than on the CD and the overall bass frequencies are not as prominent on the record but I may just need to blast it a little harder to hear the bass more.
Overall, I really like the whole package even if $20 was a little steep for a single disc.
The more I listen to my DE vinyl, the more I love it. I swear its so noiseless, its amazing. Maybe its the higher quality that we're paying for. Definitely one of the sweetest sounding LP's I have.
