NASUM: 'Grand Finale' Compilation Delayed

October 8, 2005

NASUM drummer Anders Jakobson has posted the following message on the group's official web site:

"I'm unhappy to announce that 'Grind Finale' [the NASUM collection] will be slightly delayed due to printing issues. I don't have the exact details, but apparently the printer sent the wrong templates for the artwork to Relapse, resulting in a complete set of artwork in the wrong size, so the Relapse guys have all worked this over and corrected everything according to the right templates, resulting in a slight delay in the release.

There are a lot of time, love and energy invested in this release already and we are certainly not going to damage all that with a bad printing, so we all just have to face the fact and wait a little longer for the release.

"The new release dates are as follows:
USA: November 15
Europe: November 21
Japan: During November

"I still haven't got the exact date for the Japanese release but right this moment George Seki of Howling Bull is translating the whole 80-page booklet to Japanese (the only bonus they will get)...

"Again I'm sorry for the delay. This is not ours or Relapse's fault, we should all just blame a clumsy printer who also happens to lack a lot of servicemindness, being a lazy-ass bastard! Hehe! So just wait for it a little longer, OK?"

You can download 21 samples from "Grand Finale" at this location. More information about the CD can be found here and here.
