Futurology - Randomly plonked out on iTunes.

Quite the difference.
Says it all - the best bloody band in the world, as supported by the worst promo company in the universe!

found it, heard it, confused by it. i think i like it on very first listen. will have to play it louder in the car tomorrow / away from a sleeping baby.

reminds me of something, maybe nothing specific... it's kinda an 80s Van Halen type of sound?

the more i listen to it the more i think that it is 'unfinished' somehow. I like it, but something is missing. I'm thinking it could be a demo version..?

In fact, this just occurred to me actually

Robin Turner tweeted that his house got robbed this week, loads of equiptment stolen.. Could this be connected with a leak?

it's all very Dirty Dancing / John Hughes: the wife'll love it.

not keen on the 'still blinded by your intellect' line - doesn't quite fit for me, sticks out a little too bluntly... but that's about it as far as early criticism goes.

kudos for actually surprising me with something genuinely different, Nicky!

For any other band, yes. This one has been addicted to writing radio edits instead of complete songs ever since they had to butcher everything for the Forever Delayed compilation.

But I don't like to go on about it.
