I think this release is pretty well set-up.

 

Single play - fans download. Should gain airplay and video play, casual buyers get buy the track. Then the fans buy all the single bundles for the physical release come the middle of August. My only worry is that the album sales may suffer as a result, but we shall see.

Aaah brilliant news! And what a wonderful cover! :o

I'll have to add parts of that to my sig I think.

 

Can't wait for next Monday now, I'll definitely be downloading!

Here's the BEST version of Crying Lightning out at the moment btw

 

 

Definitely their best lyrically, but i'm still unsure about the track. Idk, I have a feeling the studio version will sound different.

Wow! Loving the cover! Looking forward to the free download too.

 

what free download?

 

unless your going to break the law and illegally download :o

So who's gonna download at midnight after it's played then? :dance: I'm gonna do that AND get the physicals when they're out of course :P

Hmmm I don't think I'll be up at midnight tbh. I'm leaving on a road trip to Alton Towers at 4.30, but I'll definitely download it when I wake up so I can have it playing in my car! :D
