The first track from the very long-awaited new album 'Songs of a Lost World' has just been released and it is ohh so lovely. I am so excited for the album to finally come out. And apparently there is some 'big news' coming tomorrow too 🙂

Whooo!

I'll give it a listen later, but is it Happy Cure, Sad Cure or Dark Cure?

Too much to hope for a return to a Seventeen Seconds era sound?

Mary Anne Hobgoblin played it other day.

I really like it. Reminds me very much of Disintegration era.

Looking forward to the tape coming out.

Just listening now. Initial thoughts:

Someone needs to tell the drummer to chill out.

And I’m a drummer.

Bit of a dirge, maybe i've grown out of them, and my favourite album is Pornography. Hmmm.

Looking forward to the new LP release.

Research shows that they'll work as well as Cure tickets in most instances.

Oh good – just watching the Live from Orange gig I remember from my youth last night.

I was in Orange as a teenager. Sat for 10 minutes in the amphitheatre and watched a bit of the sound check. Then had to do family tourism stuff what lots of teen Kevin stomping around.

@dove1 - I was there too (Leeds First Direct). It was wonderful. He cannot string a sentence together between songs but somehow he can still sing so hauntingly beautifully.
