Half page advert for the tour in the next Mojo. Sorry looks like an advert for a Samurai exhibition at a museum.

That's the sort of thing that interests me at museums so that's fine by me! A Sioux warrior would of been fab too!

The way Brexit is going they could have re-used the back of the GT cover.

Another 49-year-old here who is beaming from ear to ear at the double announcement of a new album and tour too!!

I say 49, it's actually my 50th birthday on the day of the Llandudno gig. Am tempted to go to that one instead of Cardiff, Birmingham, Wembley - all of who would be closer - just to say I'd been to see them on a milestone birthday

Happy days!

ETA - I love that few seconds we get of a song around 1:03 in the trailer. Sounds very impressive and is stuck in my head already.

I can’t stop watching the trailer. I love the preparation, the scream and then composure at the end. Fucking brilliant. I love the snippets and my heart swells with pride for them.

Superfan and Red vinyl now appear sold out. I really couldn’t justify the high price without knowing ‘what I was getting here’. Also, those postage costs are crazy. Coloured vinyl is notorious for sound quality. It looked like you are getting two copies on vinyl which is bizarre. A regular Black vinyl copy will be perfect for me.

It's nice to still have them around and get that little shiver of excitement with the first listen of new songs. Enjoy this contradictory, fascinating, weird and lovely old band while you can.

Such a great album title and interesting artwork! I'm really looking forward to hearing the album and hopefully going to some of the gigs. The announcement was quite unexpected, really didn't see that coming.

I just ordered the signed copy late last evening. I was a bit taken aback by the 10 pound shipping cost. I am also expecting th VAT to be deducted, but who know.

Few items were around at 10 or 11 pm my time.

They know some of us want every variation
Glad I'm getting the signed CD .. usually sold out by the time I see it

Yeah yeah, 2019 at the earliest! Besides so many people are all "FAKE NEWWWS!!" Jong-Un just has to release a film of him in close up speaking in English going "Good evening... A-BOO!" and everyone will think it's the end of the world.

And I've lost track how many times I've watched the trailer. It will be April before we know it. We could start an end of the world thread elsewhere on FD. But I learned to stop worrying about it some time ago.
New Manics stuff coming. Bollocks to everything else!

I saw that too and decided to wait.
If it's not available here, I'll buy it in Europe next year. I always buy the standard versions anyway.

Unsurprisingly the album isn't actually quite finished yet, according to Dave Eringa on Facebook so this is probably why we haven't seen a tracklisting as yet.

They probably needed to announce it formally to start shifting tickets for the tour.
