Anyone know if "Time Ain't Nothing" will be released as a legal download, no trace of any of them on i-tunes.

I Know The Numbers was released on the official release date on the monday I think. I'm sure we'll be able to get it then.

Anyone else's 7'' engraved? Mine seems to have some serial numbers scratched into it and 'Chrisp @ Unity'. Any ideas?

I'd say better than the INWJTEOL selection, but overall fairly average. Like Broken Up Again a lot.

Nicky Wire needs to stop singing good songs by other bands. I still haven't recovered from him murdering Ocean Rain and now he does this.

Mine haven't arrived. Meh. I'd hoped they'd arrive before my birthday.

Beat Poet: All shit.

Me: All good.

There, that was an interesting, constructive discussion, wasn't it?

Do you have any other thoughts? I mean, I admire people who are concise, but perhaps you could elaborate a little?

Haven't listened to mine yet, but was so pleased to get them at lunch time. Looking forward to hearing the b-sides.

I find the songs so tired, uninspired and devoid of any sort of spark, much like the album. I have no desire to listen to them or the album (bar the title track, which I think is brilliant) ever again. I haven't been impressed by their b-sides since SATT really, since that period I feel they've mostly been rejects, rather than good songs which wouldn't fit on the albums.

I've ordered the singles, including the signed copy. Hopefully, they'll arrive before Christmas.
