METEORITES

[s]1). Gave me tracklist[/s]
[s]2). Set-up Tour Dates[/s]
[s]3). Release dates for album[/s]
[s]4). Black Submarine as opening band on tour - nice![/s]

4). Need to stream album (via NPR, Pitchfork Advance)
5). Give me some song snippets, sounds, single, etc.
6). I want to hear from Will - is he backing this piece of shit?
7). Video?
8). What's so different than the last turd "that was better than Ocean Rain"?

Excited to hear it. Believe it or not sounds like Coldplay stripped down their sound for their new album - Bunnymen hopefully tried something unique as well. Another "Fountain" and this band might as well call it quits.

I can't be bothered with this new album, kind of waiting for them to call it a day.

I reckon if they thought they could make money without having to use the Bunnymen name they would have jacked it in ages ago.

There's being anti Bunnymen and there's being a bell-end, they're lining up at the minute.

Like it or not the "Bunnymen" is now apparently Ian McCulloch with Will Sergeant reduced to a session musician (whether by choice or not) and a couple of backing musicians.

I'd be 'happy' if it was similar to Siberia. Obviously not a patch on the first four albums but for me the best since they got back together. And that guitar bit at the end of Parthenon Drive was as good as the old stuff- I wish they'd made more out of that.

I'd be fairly happy with that too but as it seems that Mac has written all the songs with little or no input from Will I fear the worst, maybe he'll prove me wrong.

Ditto, Siberia-quality is what I'm hoping for, but I'm not anticipating it.

Pretty big sound from the snippets. And not like The Fountain. Although it does sound like a Mac solo album in places.
