I feel more excited about this than I have most

Dex - as for feeling underwhelmed - haven't you spent the last few years going to most dates on the tour? I'd feel burnt out...

I don't feel the same way as I did for earlier releases, partly because I'm a bit underwhelmed by both the single and title track.

Maybe music generally doesn't thrill me in the same way as it did when I was younger.

I'm travelling from London to see them in Newport and, to be honest, given the time and cost involved, there's something inside me that wishes I hadn't committed to it.

As it's only the second time since I've been a fan that I've not purchased a ticket for a new album tour (the other, quite rightfully being Send Away The Tigers, after hearing YLAINE), I'll have to say that I'm not in manics mode. It's more to do with being fed up of driving to Dublin for gigs than the manics. I am interested in the new album, even if the single sounds worse every time i hear it.

Hi Dan.

Haha, just the 'London' dates and other ones that are doable in terms of travel and logistics.

Saying that, I am going to 6 Young Knives gigs in November!

Not excited in the slightest bit, not very keen on the new single and don't expect the album to be any better

For the umpteenth time today, the single does not accurately represent the album at all.

SMTW should really have been left as a stand alone single.
