I still like the old four tracks more than the newer ones, but I like where you guys are heading. Can't wait to hear more stuff.

These new tracks are fantastic! A ton of my favorite acts are primarily drum & bass, so keep doing what you're doing; I love it.

Thanks all of you.

The EP is taking a little longer to complete due to our sound guy taking multiple holidays, so in the meantime we've put together a sampler track including snippets of every track from the EP.

Check the OP for the link.

listened to the sampler then, pretty excited. Really happy you've been able to distance yourself from foals and bloc party, while i liked your first EP i was put off by that a bit. You guys/two seem to be becoming more you and less other bands, which is great! nice :)

I completely agree. One of the main problems with our old format was the guitarist, who while very good, played to that (nowadays) generic tapping thing that makes Foals et al stand out.

We've entirely distanced ourselves from that by forcing ourselves to write around the lack of guitar, and I've never been happier with our output.

Two more full tracks for stream on the myspace. The EP is being processed over the weekend, and as soon as it's up on iTunes you can go ahead and pay us money for it. :p

In the meantime enjoy the tracks we've just added and thanks for the feedback.

For all the excitement professed there's not been much feedback on the new tracks.

Four tracks is too many to listen to before the finished project.

Hmm, I was thinking that.

So I've removed the demo version of VVB. We'll be uploading the master copies to iTunes in the next couple of days, then it's 2-4 weeks. I guess I should have thought about pacing this a little better. :p

Listening to the myspace tracks, I gotta say I like these a lot more than any of your previous ones. I like the sound of just the bass and it makes TFATF sound heavier, which I like...
I've been working all week in exchange for money, I just might consider /buying something/ ;)

What the fuck? I own the last EP too! It's on my computer somewhere, I know...

I, Simian is amazing.

Anyway, downloading this now. I'll listen to it at some later date, when I'm currently not obscenely busy with things.

SMG was the only one to buy the second EP.

Relatedly, I was having a listen to the tracks on the Myspace—having only heard the sampler prior—and:


mp3

I at first thought it might have been a daring new avant-garde style, but no, apparently my browser just fucked up. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little disappointed.

Nitpicky shit which you probably can't control.

1. The octopus looks like it has balls.
2. Make sure all the names are in lower case on the back cover.
3. Maybe make the numbers aligned on the left.

/me adds to shopping cart.

Unless you guys make it available on Bandcamp as well. I'd prefer that.

1. No it doesn't, it looks like a moustache!
2. They are.
3. No.

I don't think we'll be uploading to BC for the time being. Why do you prefer it?
