it took them like three years to release an album that they'd already released, so, you know, delays, but i am kinda guiltily feeling this now

there is some flurry about one track featuring "psychedelic bagpipes"
this has driven me into such a fit that i am now continually searching everything my bloody valentine in every possible venue i can think of, up to 3 times a day. funny thing is, considering UK/US time, any news release will likely happen while i'm asleep. i want to fucking hear this.

Bagpipes are naturally plenty psychedelic.

as someone who listened to his dad practice bagpipes on a daily basis for a few years, i regret to say that it is possible to play the bagpipes psychedelically :(

Er. I'm seeing this lot play out tonight. People are saying there might be some new songs.
― kraudive, Sunday, 27 January 2013 15:34 (eleven years ago) link
I managed to get a couple of tickets on Friday night, so will be there. Personally I want them to only play new material, but knowing my luck it will all be old stuff.
― Chewshabadoo, Sunday, 27 January 2013 16:38 (eleven years ago) link
Well. One new song and shit sound system. Enjoyed the classics, but really wanted more new songs.
― Chewshabadoo, Sunday, 27 January 2013 22:47 (eleven years ago) link
i heard there were 2 new songs
and the album is coming out in 2 or 3 days
OR IS THAT NOT RELEVANT?
― dojo, Sunday, 27 January 2013 22:50 (eleven years ago) link
I just assumed from Chewshabadoo's post that there was one new song and a shitty Operation Ivy cover.
― MarkoP, Sunday, 27 January 2013 22:51 (eleven years ago) link
Shields mumbled something about this week and the album, but the sounds was so muffled I couldn’t be sure. First song was new, rest were classics.
― Chewshabadoo, Sunday, 27 January 2013 23:23 (eleven years ago) link
How was the new song?

Re: new song, I couldn’t make out the vocals and major teething problems with sound on the first few tracks. Sounded average, but hopefully the recorded version will sound better.

Peter Hoskins of Sky News twitter (??!)
Peter Hoskins Peter Hoskins @PeterHoskinsSkySources tell me CD version of new #MBV album is ready but agree has to be a download launch if to happen in 2-3 days as suggested by Shields
Peter Hoskins Peter Hoskins @PeterHoskinsSkyMost interesting thing I now know about new #MBV album is vinyl version is good to go, which bodes very well for full release in 2-3 days
Peter Hoskins Peter Hoskins @PeterHoskinsSkyInteresting chat with people working on post-production of new #MBV album - No surprise that Kevin Shields is very exacting about mastering
― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Monday, 28 January 2013 01:02 (eleven years ago) link
yeah it's kinda weird to know what "good to go" means re: vinyl cause it either means SECRETLY PRESSED IN HUGE NUMBERS or else theoretically can be reproduced using melted plastic
― rockism against racism (schlump), Monday, 28 January 2013 01:09 (eleven years ago) link
is it rly that hard to press large quantities of something w/o word getting out? Do the ppl who work at the vinyl pressing plants give that much of a shit abt mbv?

almost pooped from the very real hilarity of this
i dig this new song, if it isn't a little flat. it mostly feels like the third, cast-off piece to what otherwise would've been the trilogy of repeat-based synth-driven songs "when you sleep" and "i only said"
― kelpolaris, Monday, 28 January 2013 05:43 (eleven years ago) link
The sound was pretty terrible last night. They got it right in the end but I was pretty much exhausted by volume to get too into it. I took "2-3 days" to be a joke. Seems to be Shields's stock answer these days. New LP after 20 years? Oh yeah, tomorrow mate.
― kraudive, Monday, 28 January 2013 10:13 (eleven years ago) link
One impression I got was how miserable 90% of the audience looked. I don't think I've been to a large gig for about four years (I prefer going to small gigs and clubs), but most people just seemed to be standing motionless with a blank expression - are they all like this these days, or is it just an MBV crowd.
