NME gave the Scream dogs abuse for the Give Out But Don't Give Upalbum. Infact they really hated rocks in particular when they reviewed the single.
That album may not be perfect but I don't think it's as bad as NME & Co claimed at the time.
The new album is a return to stonesy stuff isn't it? hmmm. I'm not sure thats a great idea though, they've spent years trying to get rid of that image. Still lets wait and see what it sounds like before judging. After all Evil Heat was just a rehash of xtrmntr(their best album IMO)
At least the Scream aren't just content releasing clones of Screamadelica which I'm sure the press would've preferred.

Their management had arranged for Luton Airport to remain open longer than usual so the band could fly in after playing in Dublin. Apparently Luton wasn't "rock 'n' roll" enough, and the band refused to make the trip. They were banned from appearing on the show for the next three years.
Say no more. Oh wait...

bollocks. the new single sounds like xtrmnr-era prml scrm going rock, with a mandolin, and as such is absolutely fucking wonderful. irritatingly, it disappeared from the iTunes music store (UK) just as i was trying to buy it, and now won't come back. fuckers.

Sadly I think that might be a reference to Gerry Rafferty.
