Posters arrived today, the millennium one is great, but the TIMT one it awful, the print quality is awful. SO bad that I'm considering complaining... anyone else...? Or am I just being a moaning Minnie?

If you buy something and it turns out to be shit, you absolutely have the right to complain.

The indie exclusive vinyl with the 7" is down to £12.99 at Resident.

Wasn't expecting anything glossy for £15 but I reckon I could've got a better quality poster taking a photo of the TIMT album cover on a Nokia 7610

This is my low-resolution poster, show me yours:

So did we all get the same polaroid?

I think they're best described as "all a unique polaroid of the same subject matter", i.e. a picture of the picture on the album

Ah excellent. I'd assumed he/a minion had just taken a pile of pictures of the album cover. Not a complaint!

Everything is so unimaginably shit in the world and my life. You know what's the worst thing though? That the manics don't have b-sides any more. Like it really makes me feel EVERYTHING IS OVER. You just get that album and that's it. We used to get 6 months of secrets and deep takes and illuminations, now it's just the album.

Yes but we get to buy the album in different colours now, or buy signed printouts of tour posters

Yaaay!! *he proclaims while ironically waving his hands in the air & doing a little dance*

Give me B-sides (or even remixes for that matter) any day! - Different colours indeed! lol

[Comrade Mike]

Not new B-sides per se, but some older, non-album stuff has popped up on Spotify and elsewhere today:
Together Stronger (C'mon Wales) - now includes the David Wrench remix of A Design for Life from the CD single

And in timezones where it's now the 30th:
Let Robeson Sing (Live at the O2) - presumably the same as the freebie download from the official website a few years ago, although it appears to be shorter
Spectators of Suicide - the 2020 re-recording with Gwenno, but lacks the Welsh version

Really cool stuff, thanks. The ADFL remix is new for me (my god James rips it to shreds on that) and so is the Robeson live. Spectators I've heard but lost track of. The vocals are really good from Gwenno

I wonder if this Robeson release is leading up to anything such as a full O2 album. The artwork is different to the original free download and we've still not got an answer to what this was about... http://www.foreverdelayed.org.uk/for...ad.php?t=63160

Also - just realised the 17th Dec will be the 10th anniversary of the gig and is a Friday which is the standard album release date....

Now that’s something to get excited about. Yes please.

A 10 year blu ray (or, if we're being realistic, a YouTube video) to come with KYE?
