In years gone by we would have had exciting red herrings or tidbits about the friend of the guy who was friends with the photographer who knows the artist who helped inspire the album art and he said on Twitter that he can’t say anything about the album but he thinks he can say that it doesn’t suck. 
Time to start digging people!!!

Yeah, ages ago I would have asked the representative of Warner Music if he knows the release date, and if I could get a promo CD plus tickets for the next gig here 😃  I was working in an electronic store, in the music (CD, vinyl, DVDs Blu-ray)  department 🤣

 

but now ... 😕

With a couple festival dates announced for next summer, it gives me just a little sliver of something to read way too much into. Often, but not always, the festival circuit is sandwiched between or is the precursor to a new tour which presupposes a new album as well. Now this could just be the band dipping their toes into playing live again but ya boi's an optimist and a dreamer...

I’m feeling early-mid ‘22 given where it seems like they’re at with LP9 and the dates

Potential for some smaller gigs by the end of this year? 👀 I’m defo feeling some around the start of this next cycle

Edit: also side note, my local record store is gonna have copies of the Matt album eyyyy

I already kinda assumed/hoped this but hearing someone else echo it really puts some coal in my hype train! Every album cycle holds some deep meaning for me and being that this will be my first album as a dad, it will almost inevitably rank highly for me. (Will also be my first tour since 2015 that I wasn't taking classes so we can actually travel if we have to. 😎)

I asked mine about it today ( I picked up my ordered Absolution vinyl 😍 which sounds a lot better than my CD! Some parts are still cringe tough ...) , whilst looking it up he said „It‘s a live album, right?“ errm, no I replied ... he was talking about The Jaded Hearts Club 😅 „This should be really good!“ I replied yes, it is 😁 

but, he‘s not sure if he‘ll get Matts album 😕 if so, he‘d sell it for about 39 Euro, he said.

If it’s any consolation, I live in a big-ish city in England but there’s only a couple of pretty small record shops and even mine said they’d have “a lot” of copies. So even if you can’t get one first-hand, I imagine there’ll either be plenty left that they might sell on here or second-hand ones you can get hold of easily.

It’s just so strange and hard to judge because they’ve veered off their usual structure for the first time and everything’s so quiet 😩

Hopefully, now that they’re seemingly back in London and once they’re done promoting this Origin thing, their normal hype building will start to pick up again. Wonder if it’d be worth a trip down to Air soon..... 👀

It’s just that I hate taking pictures of myself, so any photo-based social media thing is utterly pointless for me 😂 not that I really use my others either but at least pics aren’t *required*
 

I feel like this is proper album time now. Dom and Matt have maybe been working on some demos during remixing Origin, but it’s probably a smidge further along than the other records would be at demo stage. March 2022, mark your calendars.
