UPDATE from Diverse Records:
"Unfortunately there's a slight delay in the release of "Sweet Warrior" while we investigate a possible distortion on one of the test pressings. More news as it breaks."
"We have had real problems with this release. However I'm glad to say that they have now been overcome and the pressing plant has just mailed me to say that the LP's will be leaving their German factory on the 20th of November."
