Sort of surprised to see Lex into Dubstar at the top of this thread.

New album out in September. The single is nice enough.

many years ago I worked with one of the main blokes from brick supply.to say he was angry/bitter re the dubstar cover version would be an understatement.due to a problem re publishing they never saw a penny off it.

Understandable, but how much money did Dubstar's "Not So Manic Now" made anyway? It's not like it was a huge hit.

New single is a little boring :(

unfortunately agreed, but to be fair I've listened to client way more than dubstar

It's definitely more polite than anything off of say Disgraceful but I'm happy to have new Dubstar, and the new single is a perfectly lovely song.

I always found Dubstar a hard band to love - great singles but too arch over a full album - but I like this new single a lot.

shan't!
meanwhile this album is very dear. it's almost like dubstar's particular strain of melancholia always befitted the midlife crisis (as told from a female perspective), and now they can finally make it a reality

loses points for the drab attempt at an epic closer, but that aside this is really pretty consistent

I would've sworn that "Waltz No. 9" was a b-side from the band's first go?

What is this, the chorus is such fluttering brain melting goodness.

WTH Lewis Jaeger I'm still waiting to throw down with you over the last song.

Wrong Dubstar Saer!
Just came to this thread becuase Disgraceful had come on via autoplay - always a pleasure to hear again – and now I see there is a new album too, will give this a listen today.

This new album is quite jolly and benefits massively from the return of Stephen Haguey Hague. "Blood" is dark.
