So I’d love a Truth20 gig. I like MSPKYE’s idea of a show at the Millennium Centre - I love that venue!

Thirty times according to setlist.fm.... and pleasingly I got to hear one of the performances :-)

Time to get your hopes up.

So, box set plus a few more from Truth in the live set - sounds sensible. I don't think they could pull off the whole thing live.

Great to hear that more Lifeblood is coming!

FacelessSenseOfVoid 08-01-2018 15:13

Sounds like a perfect tour: More Lifeblood, some Truth rarities, new album material, less EMG + THB (because they've been done to death now). I might regret only buying tickets for one date! It will be interesting to see if they do a autumn/winter tour as well.

Really hoping for a box set, could be pretty amazing, if only for that version of Tsunami alone. I wonder if they have any unused songs in the archive.

Good point, forgot about the additional stuff they mentioned!! Need to take those into account.

Lifeblood and prologue? :O

The Crow 09-01-2018 07:39

Hmmmmm, I think I may go to this now.....

It seems like they are possibly doing a tour like the did in 2014, promotes the New LP, then in December The Truth, personally its a weak LP but I would love to hear some of the songs off it again.

Europa Gluten Free 09-01-2018 09:23

Although it's not cool to say, I do think that TIMT is overall their strongest song era. The album is of it's time, i.e. late 90s 70+ min over produced post-britpop depression, but there are some fantastic songs on it (Black Dog on my Shoulder must get a play surely....) plus even better b-sides that were simply rejected as they didn't fit the aesthetic of the album. It's not cool to like TIMT, even the band never mention it, no doubt guilty over the success of it, but I still listen to TIMT more than most albums.

The Crow 09-01-2018 09:25

EMG & TIMT are very much in the same era in terms of lyrics/music then disaster struck with KYE which fine because the band mocks the LP too in a nice way.

Jimi A 09-01-2018 11:00

We're getting the impression that there is no TIMT tour, but those songs will feature heavily at the festival headline spots that will get announced soon.

almostfamous 09-01-2018 16:44

Do we think they will "tinker", er, I mean "Reimagine" the TIMTTMY tracklisting for the reissue (a la SATT) and sneak "Prologue" in place of something less popular?

Flint 09-01-2018 21:14

They better not touch the tracklist.

Prologue would be really ill-fitting on the album as well. Incredible song but would not work with the other songs.

Routine Builder 09-01-2018 21:50

Lifeblood tracks for an arena tour.... That'll end well. They've been teasing Prologue for years now though it might be the be Comfort Comes....
