Rival Schools' lost album

Does anyone know much about this? I heard they recorded an album's worth of new material before they disappeared into the ether, and it never got officially released but was leaked online...

Does anyone actually have the album in question and if so:
a) where did it come from?
b) what's the tracklisting?
c) is it any good?

Question 'b' is because I acquired a load of non-United By Fate songs off a guy I used to work with's itunes, most of which seemed to be of demo quality, and a few turned out to be from the split ep they did with onelinedrawing, I'd like to know if any are from the magical mystical lost album. Danke bitte xx

I was thinking about this JUST TODAY actually! I've not heard a non-shitty quality version of it but the songs are amazing, I'd say if they did it properly it would be just as good as the first. I love Rival Schools.


Oh and

to answer, sorry, it originally came from a website called "united by walter" I think. The tracklisting you will find out if you download the above link ;) and yes it's ace.


Oops

Looks like I should've done some searching on this here boardy thing shouldn't I? Well I guess the issue was of such importance to me patience and logic went out the window.

Just waiting for my sleepy puter to do the deed of collecting the expected genius from your link...


Hah no don't worry

it wasn't a dig. There's way too many threads to search through here, and to be fair, the forum search isn't that useful...


thanks Jolley
