I don’t know why but I suddenly felt the need to go and listen to this.

Got that blue vinyl hanging on my office wall.

I am liking the vibe of that promo but I just know I’m forever going to be calling it the ultra violet lament. Orwellian just sounds like trad manics to me which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, so did international blue but it’s not on that level of greatness.

Can I just say with regard to vpns to be very very careful using any old free ones you find, some are known to be extremely dodgy with siphoning off all your data to Chinese companies and whatnot. Torrent freak often do roundup reviews of the best ones so worth checking - https://torrentfreak.com/?s=Vpn
Personally, I use windscribe and they offer a free version (used to be no signup required either but not sure these days) but you only get 10gb data per month - no antipodean servers in the free version though unfortunately. https://windscribe.com

I decided to wait until midnight. Any Manics or non Manics song that sounds similar to Orwellian?

I've gone looking for it on various sites a few times today and I've written it as Violet every single time

Orwellian is OK. Very similar vibe to Futurology or RIF songs. Wouldn't be out of place on the second side of RIF. Think "In Eternity." I don't think the chorus is so strong. Great to have new Manics music though. Hope they do some YouTube stuff over the next weeks and months.

Hopefully. The team behind the JDB album seemed absolutely on fire in terms of the things they were posting up and the interviews they were booking him on, so hopefully they're using the same people.

Orwellian is followed by a track featuring a Julia…

Nice.

So if it's live In New Zealand and Australia I'm guessing from time zones it'll be appearing in the UK at midnight then...

I loved the teaser and album trailer earlier - put me in mind of DARK on Netflix in terms of style. Orwellian sounds great, almost like something from Futurology/Resistance is Futile - looking forward to hearing more and such over the coming months, roll on September (and a tour!)
