Both full band. I'm exactly not sure what song I'd liken TSOD to, it recalls Automatik Teknicolour a bit overall (to me at least). Caldey could have slotted into RTF easily, and feels like SMTW as if it was sadder.

The single is up on the Australian iTunes now.

Full band. And I think TSOD has that same Sega/videogame-feeling as Hugheskova has. Both songs seem to be set at the RTF camp emotion and feeling wise, but still there's the Futurology sound and production. They sound pretty funny actually, like a total mash up between the two albums.

TSOD is, yes. Caldey a tad less so.

Personally, I'd say these two have a stronger replay factor than any of the b-sides associated with RTF.

It's always this way with other countries getting releases the Friday before us. It's even more weird because the mighty market of America gets everything last on the Tuesday.

Was worried that Caldey was going to be an instrumental. Shit title though.

It refers to the Caldey Island outside Tenby. Even tho everyone probably knows that, but just in case

And yes, the title does hint towards an instrumental.. just like Manorbier and Hugheskova.

Walk Me to the Bridge is one of those songs that isn't going to work live if they insist on sticking closely to the studio sound. The chorus has been 'Nasymthed' to hell and back.

And that remix really didn't need two versions. Or one.

Quite impressed by that but I can't wait until Monday so I'll purchase elsewhere tonight.
