Some interesting info given by Billy in this article:

Stella P and the People Mover….. what a weird title – makes me think of airports!

I hope that they do something similar to Sigur Ros – have a ‘listening party’ so everyone hears the album – streaming – at a certain time (in their timezone)
http://www.sigur-ros.co.uk/Of course that means being in NZ – I’d get to hear it first.

It’s available now on iTunes, so if you don’t have iTunes, you need to download it.
Not sure if this works…

Some people have got their vinyl/CDs already!
[/quote:2mih0uk2]
are you sure about this?
i mean, is it confirmed that the vinyl record is already out there? (i read somewhere that they were slightly delayed.)
i wonder how the vinyl version looks. has anyone seen any pictures?
i also wonder if it’s a record on three sides, just like adore, for example. the album has the right length for three sides. or they might go for four. -

ignore this question. i’ve seen a picture of one of those sp.com pre-order packs, including the record.it was still sealed though, so no information about the number of sides, etc.
all i can tell is that the front looks the same as the cd.

yeah, I saw people posting their pics of the vinyl on instagram

well, after many many listening i cannot help but say that OCEANIA will be better without 3 tracks i really can’t understand:
. The Chimera, good for an American Pie 14 soundtrack.
. Glissandra… it’s smell like SP old school but it is not SP. Dispensable
. Inkless, guess it is an EMI wanted to get back Hard Fans?
the rest of the Album take place in my heart because of its maturity, its sensibility and its daring innovation in Smashing Pumpkins sound.
i think there many people here that share this feeling!
let me know… -

someone on sp.com says he won a test pressing at a record store giveaway. maybe it’s the same one? or does this giveaway you linked to still have to happen? -

Anyone know?

I love the swirly guitars in Glissandra, and what has Inkless got to do with EMI..?
I think it would be better without One Diamond One Heart – too ‘pop’ for SP
also I’m now skipping listening to Wildflower – so I have my own Oceania playlist without those 2 songs now I have to go and listen to that playlist as I haven’t listened for a whole 3 days….

those two cds are identical.
there is only one version of the album.
there are however small differences depending on where the cd is released, of course. (e.g. EU version, US version, canadian version, japanese version, and so on)[/quote:3w1vti18]
I guess so too. Let’s see if we can make that list as long as the Zeitgeist list. -
although i like some tracks better than others, I’m not going to hate some tracks……
but i will say: I hope they got a studio version of the old/slow/early My Love is Winter!
i dont know but i think Jess is responsible for the album version. In tsp’s concert in Adelaide (oct 2010) he said something about her not liking the slower sad songs, so i think he changed it for her.

still haven’t heard this album…[/quote:3um3vjtt]
lol me neither. It is in the car stereo with the 2 boots I bought in Belgium, but I found myself listening to the track Oceania first, and only. I keep the whole album for Thursday, when I have to drive 2 hours to the other side of Holland.Oceania is a wonderful track, as I expected…

That goes for The Celestials, Violet Rays, Pale Horse and Oeania, so far my favourite tracks. It is a really good album indeed! The only so-so song for me is Pinwheels, but hey… That is all! Compliments to the band, and everybody involved in making this album possible.I have been driving for like 5 hours almost today, so I listened to the Budokan boot also. And there I got goosebumps… Heavy Metal Machine, with Billy screaming his heart out, and a very different guitar solo in the middle part. Damn, I just love these live shows!
When I listened to Oceania, the track, then at 5 minutes in the song somewhere, Mike slowly comes back, but that part is so f*cking impressive… Damn!

It’s still available on Soundcloud – for those who haven’t heard it yet. And to send to those friends who say ‘Smashing Pumpkins? They’re still around?’

I really hope it’s a SPfreak who wins the Oceania test press being given away by AMIJukeboxes
[/quote:3ukjetkd]Note that the SPfreak who wins this has to be residing in North America in order to be eligible.[/quote:3ukjetkd]
or just do your own thing and have it shipped to someone in US.[/quote:3ukjetkd]

Good. I think at least a dozen Smashing Pumpkins rarities took the ‘US stopover’ route to me. The most stupid thing, and that was rather recent also, was an eBay seller from Japan that ships to US, Canada, few other places, and also to a few countries in the EU, which were Germany and UK if I remember well. But NOT TO HOLLAND. Yeah right. F*ck you, not buying anything from you, assh*le. Not even by the ‘US stopover’ route. Never.

[/quote:1d2h3uec]Maybe he had bad experiences shipping stuff there. The only thing I know, is that it seems to take a lot longer for parcels to ship to/from there, it shouldn’t stop him from sending though!
