The Avalanches

I miss Carmody.

The website's been revamped too so it does look like "something" is happening

Easy -- gearing up for the 10th anniversary 2CD edition.

Prepping for the 10 year deluxe reissue of the last one, imo.

Damn it! Ned beat me by mere seconds!

Hahah

I would love it (no really) if this was a joke twitter

was chatting with a friend of one of the band members last night and had to ask the question. was told (paraphrasing here) that the record has been completed for fucking ages and it was being held up by the other member having panic attax about it not being good enough to release. grain of salt etc

;_;

what?!? are you fucking kidding me?? will someone leak this shit already

Pass along the word that we, the listening public, will be very forgiving! We just want to hear it.

i'm sb'ing anyone who revives this thread w/o solid knowledge of a def release date.

they already scrapped one entire finished album because they got convinced that it wasn't what the public wanted from them

aspie bastards

yes what the public wants is more than a decade between records

The public wants a goddamn album is what it wants

Sadly the public doesn't really care any more and mostly can't remember who these guys are.

On the other hand if only this had happened to the Aeroplane album...

I don't even care if they don't change or evolve what they did, I just would like another Avalanches album.

i think in australia the public definitely remembers/cares who they are

kevin shields is going to remaster it when he's done with 'screamadelica'

but before he gets cracking on that loveless remaster....

This album will be released on the same day as Detox

I bet China will have a democracy before we see this, amirite?

I think the public only ever knew about "Frontier Psychiatrist" anyway.

Me = The Public. I want a bloody album.

Just think, when the album came out John Howard was only four years in office.

"In the Year Two Thousaaaaaand"

yes what the public wants is more than a decade between records

They're just trying to outdo Bark Psychosis.

whoa since when were flickr links garbled

since they had an '@' in them

#3 on Sterogum's most anticipated albums of 2011

so the last album came out *ten years ago* this month in the UK.

I see they're playing some festival at Sydney Opera House in May. A sliver of hope for a new album maybe?

they're DJing

I'll be happier if they never release anything else.

I'll be happier if they go back to the 97-99 lineup and start playing live again

I'd be happier if they'd been allowed to release the "journey" album they finished in 2006

"allowed"?

"allowed"?

There was a royalties/artists permissions issue I think

Next question. What's a "journey" album?

There was a royalties/artists permissions issue I think

no, the label rejected it. the band said it was more of a "musical journey" and they were sent back to come up with a "party record" instead.

ah anyway I've bored about this before:

The Avalanches

Man, that's pretty infuriating

"Before I hang up, I have one more question: where the hell is that Avalanches album at, please? Pav laughs again – he’s used to this one. “Well, they’re going to be having a finished-in-the-studio party with us in May, so I’d say it’s going to be some time this year. I’ve heard it from one end to the other.” …And? “You’re asking the wrong person. I think they’re the most creative people this country has ever seen.”"

album is gonna suck giraffe balls

Internet jadedness doesn't make you cool. I still have hope.

They'd make an amazing Balearic/cosmic disco album...
