Mightier Than Sword Records have announced the vinyl release of Blink-182’s self-titled has been delayed.

The label posted the following message:

“We’ve run into some pressing plant/approval issues with the release of Blink-182’s “Self-Titled” 2xLP vinyl release.

We had to switch pressing plants last minute so that we could do the vinyl colors we originally had planned on, which included getting new test pressings to approve. Those have finally been approved. We’ve been waiting on the band’s approval of the artwork layout, which we are still waiting on, but hoping to have within the next couple days. Besides that, everything is ready for production.

I’m doing my best to push the necessary approvals and production along as quickly as possible. We’ve been plagued with delays with the past couple big releases, but it’s something we’re working on to fix the problem. I am working to have these records ready to ship out by early August, or sooner, if possible. As soon as I have a shipment date from the pressing plant, I will post more information here.

If you have any concerns or questions about your order, if you need to change your shipping address, or if you’re just pissed off about the delay, please feel free to e-mail me at rj@mtsrecords.com, I’d be happy to discuss it with you. I appreciate your support, and promise you that you will have your record(s) as quickly as possible.”

The label have also announced plans to release the bands ‘Take Off Your Pants and Jacket’ on vinyl.
