still chewing.

I've ordered the ridiculously priced boxset with second disc and DVD and stuff. I think I can make it to next week until listening. It's difficult though.

No, I shall wait for high quality audio and artwork.

Me too.

Tickets booked for the November brixton gig - cannot wait! Their november 08 night there was amazing.

I saw they did video for every song, I wish I could afford the DVD

My favorite tracks on the new release are Bird 1, Scribble and Diamond Jigsaw

They've mentioned that their US shows don't sell very well and thus they can't afford to do a massive tour there.

omg less than 2 days

Hyped about this album!

ooh appleblim - well curious for that one - the cover art is barely tolerable - never a big underworld fanboy ..but some

love the album and the artwork.

how is this artwork bad, at all? i think it's "the contrary."

one of my favorite artworks this year. possibly #1. not everything needs to be subtle and washed out, guys.

I think the artwork is a good indication of how they feel about the album.

Very colourful, and a whole lot of fun to make.

From what I've heard of the album it does indeed seem to match... it's like... so bad... but so awesome at the same time... I think I'll wait till I get my hands on the cd before I listen to all of it but I'm really looking forward to it. It seems to appeal to the same part of me that likes cheesy euro house and J pop.

The box set has just arrived on my desk at work! The mess of a cover at this big scale weirdly seems to make the artwork make much more sense - it sure is a solidly made little thing and reminds me of Radiohead's In Rainbows Ltd 12''/CD version of the album ...

Plus signed artwork by the boys

Farkin awesome, I better get home and pick up the royal mail delivery ticket then so I can listen to it tonight

Hah.. went home after lunch, just in time to see the postman driving off down the road

Knowing he would not have left it at the doorstep, I chased him down the road, showed him my ID, and grabbed my copy

I like this album very much. It doesn't feel like an Underworld album, perhaps unsurprisingly, but it's very good.

A friend of mine didn't want to splash out on the super-deluxe-o-mega-pack version but was curious what was in it so I sent her some photos - but I thought it'd make sense to link them here as well whilst they're still uploaded:

(stuck in a spoiler so as not to kill this page)

that improves my opinion of the artwork considerably

I told you it made more sense at that scale

Yeah it looks fucking lush doesnt it

The art print is definitely getting framed.

I think I like the alternative versions as much as the proper album versions. Even the Paul van Dyk collaboration sounds awesome.

The DVD is getting a viewing tomorrow as the missus is working late

Really, really enjoyable album. I think the only track that hasnt struck a chord yet is the Appleblim collab, which doesnt sound quite a rich as the rest of the tracks.

Shit, LA only for the US?

Should have booked SF as well. Electronic music here is huge.

edit: According to http://www.underworldlive.com/events/ there is a San Francisco show. And holy shit, what a fucking show it will be: http://www.cowpalace.com/index.php?view=details&id=44%3Alive-105s-subsonic-spookfest&option=com_eventlist&Itemid=89

first four tracks i was all

second half with all the 80s anthems i was like

I got a headache about halfway through this album. I couldn't stand the pain anymore during Louisiana.

Might be unrelated tho.

OR IS IT?

i'm about to check slsk but what's the deal with the limited edition not being uploaded to the web yet
