I think the last word you could use to describe the choirs on that album is subtle, but I'm glad you like them  .

woo-hoo, finally got my copy this week! been playing it since Tuesday, it has had to fight with the 3xCD Station To Station, though!
It's Not War - sadly already played to death before the album, thanks to web file, video and singles. not as annoying as YLAINE, but not to be played often Postcards - what a great tune! Some Kind Of Nothingness - fucking rubbish. i don't care who they got in to sign on it, it's fucking rubbish. awful music, tripe lyrics The Descent - classic slice of mid to late 90s Manics here, in sound and word. love it! Hazleton Avenue - love the sentiment behind it, and James' vocals are superb, but the Kravitz "homage" on the guitar is a bit distracting Auto-Intoxication - bit torn on this one really. my first reaction was that i didn't like it, but it's oddly the one i am keen to try again and play the most. a grower, is the term i believe, i think? Golden Platitutes - seems to be a subtle, clever go at either the Blair-Brown relationship, or quite possibly how Blair fucked over all those who believed in him at the start. or it could be about Liam and Noel on one level. or something else. anyway, pretty good solid album track. I Think I Found It - outstanding track A Billion Balconies Facing The Sun - this is fucking brilliant! how was this not a single? ace track, possibly my favourite on the album, bar the title tune (and The Descent) All We Make Is Entertainment - ah, that Springsteen jibe makes sense - this is Badlands taken down in key & pace, isn't it? still, a great song, and should have been the end to a near perfect album. however.... The Future Has Been Here 4Ever - what a load of fucking wank. this sounds like shit that Nicky somehow couldn't fit on his album, or even a b-side on a single. absolute fucking rubbish, i wish i knew how to scratch just that part of the surface of the CD. if they do this live, i hope everyone stands and shouts "you fucking wanker" at him when he does that awful, awful, awful Godfather line. Don't Be Evil - there's some rather clever lyrics going on here. this would sound amazing from a young band now, on their debut. however, from a bunch of 40 somethings who have been enjoying the fruits of one of the biggest, most hated Corporate record labels in the world, it doesn't sound right. i presume it's a go at Google, with the name of the track, yeah? i think the only person who would then play this track again and again would be Rupert Murdoch. so, what could have been a mostly excellent 10 track album gets a bit fucked over by two duds on the end. ho hum, nothing is perfect. other than the very cheap and flimsy paper they have used for the booklet, a great album - no JFPL for sure, but not the SATT Part 2 many had feared.

The transaction has gone through, I'm guessing it's not an issue that delivery and billing address aren't the same?
