I've just realised what other recent album A Moon Shaped Pool reminds me of: Vulnicura.

They're both essentially breakup albums that bring artists in danger of becoming slightly too unrelatable back down to earth and remind you of what it is they do best.

Resident Advisor thought similar

Think that looks like not much space for a string section. If anything more interesting to see how they'll emulate these songs without one. 

That was my first thought, was hoping it would happen but worried bits may be recorded now

Question for Neil - would it be possible to set your Checkpage site to also monitor the Roundhouse and Waste ticket pages?

yep

But someone active on checkpage would have to give me the URlL.

thanks ... tho as you don't appear to be active on checkpage there's no point in me adding them. If you are, please email [email protected] with your checkpage login details.

Also wondering whether it makes to add the Seetickets pages, even though they and G&T are the same company.

I doubt there's any point, as far as I'm aware from convos I've had with See about a white label site, iG&T is merely a different front end to the same backend system, and if one changes so should the other.

So.... the Burn The Witch / Spectre 7" release direct to ebay went well.....

They should have released it normally. It's a nice idea to have a limited release, but in 2016 it's been proven time and again to not work. They have just disappointed their fans by releasing it the way they have.

This is the one thing that bugs me. Same goes with you didn't get a download copy when you brought the physical. Why not just release it all at the same time?

Apart from appealing to "collectors" and more pertinently, ebay scum, what is the exact point of it being so strictly limited?

A non-limited release would have been better all round, for everyone concerned. Radiohead, the indie stores, the fans. Sometimes you have to wonder if anyone in the band / mamagement / label has a clue how things work in the real world.

Sigh.

They would actually make more money if they did a non-limited release and it would screw over their fans. So yeah, no idea why they wouldn't do it.

I think they do. They just want to be 'radiohead' eg the In Raindows pay scheme and how quickly they released King of Limbs etc

    • It does feel like there's a push back against net zero from both left and right, but especially the right. Probably since Trump I guess, but even before Trump you had the tea party and Sarah Palin thing, but over here the right were on board with the issue of climate change and the need to address it, from Thatcher through to Johnson. That has now changed, first it was the populist right, not it is mainstream, with Badenoch making the two prerequisites for standing for the Tories being against net zero, and for leaving the ECHR. You can be an ex neo-nazi as long as you are against net zero. At least many now seem to accept the climate change is happening and it is caused by us, but they now say well it will be a nice mediterranean climate so lets bin net zero anyway and just have fun f**k all that woke green sh*t. But also the left, with various trade union leaders and blue labour types going on about net zero being bad for the economy and the need for reindustrialisation as we head back to the glory days of the 50s when we all worked down pit or something, ignoring the amount of industries and jobs created by net zero. The greens obviously are still firmly behind the net zero thing, but the party is also full of nimbys who are worried about hedgerows and hedgehogs and votes, and even the leadership have realised that there isn't votes in climate doomerism but there definitely is in bashing billionaires and Israel. I guess the main driver of net zero policies in the country is still Miliband which is probably why everyone seems to be f**king terrified of him, the mad freak and his renewables. He is out of the energy department, but his replacement is hardly a petrolhead, and he isn't in the treasury doing terrifying things like spending money, but he is in the foreign office which is maybe a good place for him because climate change is a global issue and its going to take a global effort.
