Mystery Jets are [i]probably[/] my favourite act of all time. I'm not always sure why but they just are.

Pre-ordered the album and the pin badges; going to be seeing them on successive nights in Leeds and Hull on the tour. I haven't seen them live since 2012(!) so I'm really excited!

I'm the same Jonny, their last album was their best yet. They've continued to be hugely relevant while a lot of their contemporaries in the mid noughties indie peak faded!

Hospital Radio, which I assume is also from this album, is great. Will definitely have a listen to this too.

Never been a massive fan but have 7 or 8 excellent songs.

Not sure if 'Hospital Radio' is on the album. When it was HR they said to Annie Mac it was a one of song for the NHS!

Hospital Radio is indeed on the album! I wasn't sure at first because they said it was a song for the NHS (which obviously it still also is), but it's on the tracklisting:

1. Screwdriver
2. Pretty Drone
3. History Has Its Eyes On You
4. A Billion Heartbeats
5. Endless City
6. Hospital Radio
7. Cenotaph
8. Campfire Song
9. Watching Yourself Slowly Disappear
10. Wrong Side of the Tracks

I absolutely love both of these singles. I'd be interested to see them play live, bit of a shame they're not playing anywhere that near

The album released has been postponed to 2020, as well as the UK tour and instore shows after frontman Blaine Harrison was taken to hospital for an emergency operation after being struck down by an infection.

Real shame to hear this - but I get why and I'm very much looking forward to it smile.gif

Desperately sad news. Hopefully he can make a full recovery for the planned new release.

The songs so far are all so good, was really looking forward to hear the full album and was going to one of the instores.

I'm surprised they are continuing to release new tracks considering we have to wait until January to get his.

This is out digitally now - physicals out in June.

It's a shame that will give it a really low chart peak, but there's obviously more things to worry about right now!
