Chelsea Wolfe's The Dark is available digitally today, but collectors should note that its physical editions are scheduled for 18 September.
Vinyl options include an Electric Smoke coloured pressing alongside standard black vinyl, with cassette and CD editions also planned.
The staggered release is increasingly common in an industry where vinyl manufacturing timelines do not always align with digital campaigns.
Rather than delaying the entire album, Wolfe's team has allowed listeners to hear the record now while keeping a second promotional moment available when the physical editions arrive.
