"Sunday" and debut album release dates

About the official release date of "Sunday" single which is marked three days prior to the album release. Where did you get the date? Just curious ;) I searched the net a bit, but couldn't find it anywhere. Billboard.com is giving the date March 20, 2004 with the song's chart information (when it presumably charted or peaked). Also the video seems to be released in 2004. Either the Aug 2003 date is not correct - or it took quite a lot of (obviously very succesful) rounds on the radio in the fall of 2003 and the following winter until its rise on Billboard charts several months later! --Sk4170 (talk) 16:10, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I basically did the same thing, searched around and couldn't find a specific date either. I actually meant to use the same date as the album itself was released, just because I figured it'd be a safe bet that the single was at least out by the time the album was out. I thought that could be a placeholder until a more accurrate date was found. I'll have to try looking that up again. Let me know if you find anything out. Sergecross73 msg me 17:22, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Found nothing reliable on the "Sunday" release date which still remains a mystery, but instead another date for the album itself here The date, Sep 30, 2003 is also mentioned at Amazon, and number of other webstores. It looks like the info @AllMusic and Billboard websites is not exactly 100% accurate - and it gets copied everywhere. --Sk4170 (talk) 22:08, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I wondered about the album release date as well, as I thought I saw an article here or there saying it had been delayed. Perhaps no one ever updated the Lo-Pro wiki, or just went with the outdated information. (The band article was pretty much a stub before I started adding to it here and there a year or so ago.) Also, I've noticed that their newest cd, The Beautiful Sounds of Revenge was supposed to come out May 25th, but got delayed to June 8th, and if you did a google search, a number of reliable sources still have the May date. So it'd be easy for someone years in the future to think it actually came out in May. I'll do some more searching too. Sergecross73 msg me 15:21, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Even Pete Murray doesn't seem to remember, since he says in a recent interview, "I think our last record came out in 2004" :/. One decent ref for the Sep 30, 2003 release date, although not mentioned directly, is the MTV Lo-Pro interview from Oct 3, 2003, stating that the album was released on the same week. Another imo solid source is Melodic.net on Aug 11, 2003 and Sep 28, 2003 It's also mentioned here and there, in some more or less pro reviews (Schwegweb et al), and upcoming releases lists. Apart from those, plus the practically unanimous retailers, I have found no other proof, but based on those two separate sources I think it has to be correct. (nothing on "Sunday" release date, yet, other than it was on the radio around the album release date as it should. I'll keep looking.) --Sk4170 (talk) 13:16, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the "Sunday" timeline, here's an article from Billboard Magazine Vol. 115, No 34 "Staind's Lewis ramps up imprint" Aug 23, 2003. It confirms that "Sunday" went - or was on its way - to radio at the end of August 2003, and also the album release date Sep 30, 2003 is clearly mentioned. However, the commercial single release date, digital or physical, remains a mystery. Melodic.net mentions on Aug 21, 2003 that "Sunday" was available for download at lopromusic.com. --Sk4170 (talk) 23:07, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well if it was available for free download on August 21, 2003, and we know it went to radio in August 2003, I think we'd be pretty justified in using the August 21,2003 date. Good researching - Thanks! Sergecross73 msg me 13:18, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

At least it's the earliest known release date at the moment. Wanted to hear your opinion though before making the changes. I guess this concludes the quest for Lo-Pro release dates for now ;) --Sk4170 (talk) 21:43, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Demos

I have cited both Thread and Ignition demos from Youtube (Thread can be streamed on Pete Murray's secret myspace page "richardwad"), and I have heard "of" Wheels discussed but have never heard it myself unfortunately. Is there anyway we can cite this or does it not need to be cited? Thanks. --72.175.115.246 (talk) 05:19, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I know the song exists myself, I've listened to it, but I don't think I have any wikipedia-approved reliable sources. You can always put a ^{[citation needed]} tag on it for the meantime, in case a source is eventually found... Sergecross73 msg me 12:25, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the quick reply! Anyways I was mainly hoping a source could be cited so I could listen to it because it is just killing me to hear wheels! I have no reason to believe anyone is lying about it =]--72.175.115.246 (talk) 03:23, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
