You're gonna have to explain to me how you get a decent looking image out of vector tracing. I've used AI's vector tracing and that has effectively given me results that look nothing like the original image, unless I crank up the accuracy so high that it crashed my system. And then I still get ...

Doesn't extending hurt the quality of the image?
Not if you trace it with vectors ;)

I'm not getting overly excited by this. Not gonna get excited until I see a button I can pre-order the album :P

I wonder if we'll ever see that 10 Year Anniversary edition of SILY?

Indeed.

But yeah, Alexander Coe's remix of Spooky - Little Bullet is probably the most known version of it ;)

Like many here, I've chosen to wait until I have time to go to a hill nearby and sit there looking at the scenery.

Hoping they've got Andy Weatherall back on production duties. He helped make Tarot Sport shine.
According to the link in OP, this will be "their first self-produced record":

You could argue this is the first album where the pair have really gone all in, taking control right down to producing it ...

Will they release a follow up?
Probably. They've already had artists record vocals for it or other projects they've done. And they've probably spent a lot of time with their submissions for the King Kong musical.


Will it be as good as/better than SILY?
Not likely, but there's always hope.

I'm not a fan of the mixing in a lot of the tracks. It sounds too... flat and shiny. I know they were kinda going for shiny, but it made a part the album sound like a disco record for white people made by white people...I especially dislike tracks 1, 4 & 11.

That being said, I liked a lot of the ...

Radio1 had the xxxxxx in the 6th position...

It could be that the AtalantaFugiens video has scrambled the description though, and it's up to us fans to match the sequence.

Possibly NPR didn't have a clue about the XXXXXX placement OR it is hidden someplace else, OR we will have the details for the other series of number and by default the NPR one will pick the last available spot. There's redundancy in all this for resolution.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but ...

So, the pi thing looks decidedly iffy. It was only a kind of suggestion anyway.
It can still be something like 06/08/13 (mm/dd/yy, Saturday), or 08/06/13 (mm/dd/yy, Tuesday).
