OK looking like Monday delivery for me. At least I know it survived the flight across the pond, lol.

Got mine through and just gave Poison Arrow a test spin, before listening properly later on. It is sounding sweet! The mix is outstanding! Still quite dry but in lossless it actually seems to enhance the mix compared to the lossy stream. Can't wait to give it a run through later... This is going to be one of the releases of the year!

You ain't nothing but a troll, or a relative of Mr. Jero.
Poll page up for the album! (Not by me, but by staff.)

I'm not familiar with "The Lexicon of Love" as an album but do know the singles that received airplay.
I bought this when it was announced on the strength of the singles, and it being another Wilson project.
It has arrived in Vancouver and I expect a Monday delivery.

Someone on another forum is complaining about a lack of backing vocals on PA. Here is an example he posted here.Got mine through and just gave Poison Arrow a test spin, before listening properly later on. It is sounding sweet! The mix is outstanding!

It all sounds great, but I think "Valentine's Day" is the track that impressed me the most - there's this great bit midway through where a piano and keyboard playing the same riff chase each other around the room. And the use of the heights for the orchestra is genius...Got mine through and just gave Poison Arrow a test spin, before listening properly later on. It is sounding sweet! The mix is outstanding!

Wow, yours is in Van already?
Mine only left the UK yesterday, based on past history it’ll be at least another week before I see it.
Was a bit of a blind buy for me too.
Poison Arrow and The Look of Love are the only songs I know.

Yeah it actually sounds like there’s a live orchestra in the room! It’s really, really discrete.
I like the mix on Date Stamp. The cash register sound effects pinging around and the backing vocals are panned to the rears but alternate from behind to also the top heights. It's almost like SW downed a can of Red Bull beforehand. It’s one of his best and most adventurous mixes ever…

I was happily surprised to get this today, only four days shipping! I bought all the others (except 6.5) in the series and they have all taken 2 to 3 weeks.
Lol the guy is clearly trolling. Don't expect a response. Some people just like to be "controversial".
I know those 2 as well. I think you may know "All Of My Heart" but maybe not by title.
Ordered mine on Sunday night and had it left in my mailbox today (Toronto, Canada) - definitely the fastest that I've had something from SDE so far.
Mine is arriving tomorrow. 
Arrrrgh!
It is a holiday on Monday here in Canada. Tuesday wil be earliest I suppose.

Gave the streaming version a spot-check while I wait for the Blu-Ray. Overall, it's another winner from Steven Wilson! But I think "Show Me" sounds odd so spaced apart. Gonna need some time to adjust to it. The stereo mix feels more cohesive and yeah, overall, this sounds very "dry". The drums are too isolated in this mix, at least that's how it feels to me... The rest, though, from my spot-checks: spot-on!!
Another day to celebrate this wonderful pastime.
Opened the package, said a quick whoopee.
Placed it in The Sony M2 player.
Switched on the Marantz receiver.
Selected play 'Heavenly mixes'
Now it's time for the Theasorarse.
As I've run out of superlative expressions of utter joy
I think I'm in love with Mr Wilson
ABC, how could they follow this fantastic release, well in all honesty, they couldn't.
If there is any reason to bang the Atmos drum
here we have the perfect example to consider upgrading to the ultimate in surround.
I'm in Heaven
