I'm not a big fan of vinyl records but I'll probably buy both CD and 12".

Rob


The Amazon page now says "Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available", without a listed price. Perhaps they'd temporarily gone insane when they put it up for less than a fiver!

Now £5.99.

The Quietus featurette here

Quote:
Foxx explains that it's: "[a] Lynchian love story set against the background of a convulsed Europe - where New York is the capital of France, Rome has moved to Manhattan and declared itself a republic, and New Neon Blackpool has outstripped Las Vegas and London as the playground of Sino-Russian oligarchs. It’s based in a Eurozone where dark forces insinuate the cafes, alleyways and penthouses."

Cheers for posting Mark.

The other interesting bit of that Interview is that the statue on the cover is John Foxx sculpture.

Can't See You Anymore is an exceptionally good track - especially for a 'fourth track'.
Destined to be one of John's hidden masterpieces. His road map is littered with these jewels lying in the glare of the shiny lead tracks

This is a brilliant project. John and Jori seem to have a real understanding.

Evangeline was indeed aired today on BBC6Music with Radcliffe and Maconie. It's another SUPERB track. As they say - beautiful, elegaic neo-Gregorian.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/player/b036lk6r

You can find the premier broadcast of the song at approximately 1:25:40

This EP is really very beautiful indeed.
