The instrumental track of A Song For The Sadness sounds like something off Seven And The Ragged Tiger by Duran Duran. One of my favourites by far from the album.

(This is definitely a good thing in my book)

It feels like a big 'ole 80s-fest in many ways to me so far.

(This is supremely excellent thing in my library of books)

You could say that for pretty much any MSP album I can currently think of other than maybe EMG

Hahah fair enough. I totally think Broken Algorithims sounds like Spectators Of Suicide. Currently sat at work trying to not sing along and pogo around like a maniac whilst listening.

It did remind of a GT-era B-side, but can't remember which at the moment.

Well well, Easter has arrived early! The lads are perhaps famous for hinting at their next, or future, direction at the end of a previous cycle, or in-between albums (Comfort Comes, Masses, Picturesque) and to me the album fits the mould of the Feels Like Heaven cover.

First few listens and the second half seems stronger than the first - something of a rarity these days.

The beginning of Sequels of Forgotten Wars sounds a bit like How Soon Is Now meeting Lost In The Supermarket - in the very best of ways.

Some amazing guitar parts; choppy, surprising riffs that keep you on your toes throughout the album. Feels so fresh and vibrant to me.

Love it, love it, love it

With the 'shot in the arm' that seems to have been given to MSP's marketing over the whole cycle so far, I reckon this is all part of the plan. Either unofficially to create a bit of buzz, or officially and the tracks are just being cued up to announce some Amazon Prime exclusive shortly.

Not a leak in the true sense. Unless I'm wrong.

I don't think this is deliberate. Someone's messed up

Or maybe they don't like me. Sob.

Ah yes, it's all gone now.

Well, now we know everything apart from the demos and Japanese tracks etc.

That's very VERY good!
Looks like I missed out. Not sure how much space I have left to download the app.
It's only a couple of weeks anyway.
