The lack of information from Sh-k-boom is getting kind of ridiculous.
The last comment from them was on June 22 when someone asked on twitter if there was a release date yet and their comment was "No, not yet."

Posted: 7/1/12 at 3:30pmDo they normally take this long for a release of a cast recording? It's so ridiculous !

Posted: 7/1/12 at 3:54pmI recently contacted them directly and was told to join their Facebook or Twitter page in order to receive any updates ....

Posted: 7/1/12 at 3:56pmDidn't a cast member tweet that it would be coming "this fall"?
#6Carrie cast recording!?
Posted: 7/1/12 at 7:58pmIs it possible that they're holding out because of licensing and want to release it at the same time that becomes available?

I don't know what good that would do lol.
Take it with a grain of salt, but this Australian website suggests it will be released September 1st

Quite a long turn around on this one

I could have sworn I read somewhere that it was being released the week of August 18. I can't put my hands on where I read that though... (e-mail? website? imagination? who knows?)
Anyway... I'm excited for it and have signed up on Ghostlight Records to get e-mail notifications.

Posted: 7/2/12 at 7:56amThe revival took decades, what's a few months? I would imagine that summer is not generally the best time to release an album, even a musical. On the other hand, they clearly know a sliver of an audience is sitting by the computer, ready to buy this one. I'll be curious to see how they cut the material. In the revisal, a lot more of the music seemed integrated into the dialogue ("The World According to Chris" and the prom sequence for example). Will we get 70 minutes of the show, or more of a DREAMGIRLS type of recording, i.e. re-configured numbers. Unlike the original, there's also a fair amount of cursing built into the high school scenes, and I'd imagine they'd prefer the album not have the lyric warning. So they may still be working on the album, making creative decisions. Though the music is generally cut and set prior to recording, a fair amount of wiggle room exists.

Anyone want to troll the ghostlight facebook page and relentlessly ask again when CARRIE is coming :P?
They seemed annoyed (justified) at the last person (the 3rd almost consecutive post on their wall) who asked
"Sh-K-Boom & Ghostlight Records No, we will post it here when there is!,"
#13Carrie cast recording!?
Posted: 7/2/12 at 8:00pm^They are allowed to be annoyed, but so are we! Most upcoming releases would at least have cover art, a track list and some kind of projected release date announced at this point. Their silence is maddening.

Posted: 7/18/12 at 10:21pmWhy would they rush it? Sherie Rene Scott isn't on it.

Posted: 7/18/12 at 11:27pmI'm sure it's going to definitely come out, probably.
#16Carrie cast recording!?
Posted: 7/18/12 at 11:37pm^It's going to end up in flop cast recording limbo like Lestat, which as far as I understand, was actually recorded and just never released.

Posted: 7/19/12 at 12:04amComing super soon to your favorite record stores. Wrist bands may need to be passed out due to anticipated demand.

Posted: 7/19/12 at 12:12amNo, embrace what excites you. And forgive it for never showing up when it got your hopes up so high.
#22Carrie cast recording!?
Posted: 7/19/12 at 12:17amEhh... that one, I think, will actually be released. Menken is too much of an ego maniac not to make it happen so he can try and "prove everyone wrong."
