This arrived just now and it looks AMAZING. Heavy weight vinyl too. Out in April for RSD limited edition of 500. (Please don’t ask me for one, these can only be sold through the designated shops on Record Store Day).
This is still my favourite six by seven album. This deluxe version also has the two tracks we did with Death In Vegas on it (Pretty Baby and She Didn’t Say – they were both used as B-sides). It also has the original heavy version of Ready For You Now on it.
The band have just been in the studio to record a fantastic pschedelic slab of drone rock to be added to the extra bonus tracks you get with the album download of the exclusive RSD limited 500 vinyl album.
The song is called ‘She Walked’ and you can grab it as a free download until RSD starts on Saturday by going here
Just got 20 of these delivered today…looking great, 12″ vinyl, so glad it’s back and production costs have tumbled.
I’m really pleased with this record, it sounds great. Excellent drumming and fantastic grooves which feel totally unique. We used very little compression and a tiny touch of reverb and absolutely no computers or plug ins at any stage of the recording, including the mastering.
The result is a real dynamic sound, like Can and Neu!. For me it’s a true Krautrock album. It has the sound and feel and doesn’t feature that fucking Klaus Dinger beat that everyone thinks makes something Krautrock.
I’m gonna send one to Michael Rother (of Neu! and Harmonia) and see what he thinks! (Slightly shitting myself).
There’s been a bit of a storm on the MuZiK KluB this month…! Been at it all day and gonna have to change my policy about just 40 free albums. So if you want it, there’s going to be more. With this album coming out as a limited edition vinyl only release for record store day I was told I could give some away with my MuZiK KluB. I thought 40 would do it but because of the demand I’m going to make it a few more…
