Not sure how relevant this is to the actual thread, but (seeing as it's maybe the most active one at the mo)...

 

I got an email reply from Andy today to one I sent after their gig at Norwich Arts Centre last May, asking for a track ID for what we now take to be Trail: he said that he thought it was Trail (!) but a distorted version and that "it may end up on the EP to follow the new album"... I troll you not.

so this has to be a new thread....

lets collect all the info we could gather about a new Plaid EP, here. alright?

and i asked this to Andy, too, so,, lets see if that's true!

thanks Caretstik! for bringing in some good news! :)

No problem. If an EP does appear I wonder if it'd be in 2011 (no snide comment about Scintilli's delay intended)? Like I said in the other thread, such a release pattern (album followed by pretty much stand-aloneEP) has happened on Warp a few times recently, and it's obvious Plaid've got enough unused tracks left over to make an EP viable. I just hope that if there is an EP to follow it's made up of stand-alone tracks rather than lifted album tracks, although Plad have hardly ever resorted to that.

i would welcome an EP - i think the album is worthy of one.

There will be a follow up EP early next year, no release date yet.

this is from Andy's e-mail to me! :))

so i go :

^ lol. cult of snap!

this is very good news indeed. did you ask how many tracks there's gonna be? and what the new tracks will be?

no i didnt. he read like he was very busy. so i didnt wanna bother anyways..

Well the reply to mine did take over a year...

well its weird. from what i know, they reply to lots of people in reasonable time! :S idk

well they must get hundreds of emails. and like anybody, you're gonna reply to the people you know first.. , i suppose. i would.

pleasure before business! :)

I emailed them about the "Plaid films" Bob Jaroc uploaded on Vimeo and Andy told me that "HD scintilli vids will be there too soon". So I guess we can expect more Scintilli videos soon.

The wait for a reply isn't a problem, don't get me wrong. I'm impressed that they bothered at all (and they have to the few I've sent so far), however long afterwards.

Great news!

Surely this is not the EP. SURELY not..... right???

no, it isn't,

luckily :)

Damn, I look at this topic now and it looks like that Scintilli EP never happened. Wonder if something got in the way or if they were dissatified or something?

I hope the Polymer EP isn't the same outcome.  

I feel like a P-Brane.
