good read, cant't wait for this, will be a contender for album of the year i reckon well for me that is.

I've pre-ordered it, but that's still far too long.

you know it will come as soon as possible and you wont feel at all guilty if it does leak.

if you knew how much this album cost to make and how little money the band have you'd want ever bugger to pay to hear it, like what people used to do before everything was free!

i know folks here would probably buy it if they downloaded it, but a lot of people wouldn't and many who wouldn't will happily sit on boards slagging it off, putting other people off, despite the fact they're not really their kinda thing but it was free and obviously their opinion is worthwhile and for some reason, people seem to trust passing strangers.

we'll be doing some things, like those free live downloads (on www.rcrdlbl.com if anyone missed them) ahead of the album so people can hear bits of it, promise.

and sorry for the delay but it's all record industry nonsense, it wasn't finished 'til september, which was too late to release it before xmas and then there were tons of records out this first part of the year which it would clash with and then we found out they had a good chance of getting the foals tour, so we're giving it, its best shot. the band deserve it afterall.

s

"Bubbles and blisters" bit?

out at the moment other than that Loud & Quiet one?
