Some of the samples are lifted straight from the Titanic exhibition (which I notices at a later point when I did the tour)

They were very good tbf (Boy King was a bit Meh tho)

I liked it a lot but I will concede it was probably their weakest. Seemed like a fun experiment, the whole ‘being the band we always fought against being’ but then because it ended up being their last album that felt more like they’d run out of ideas. Both Thorpe and Fleming are gonna do more good solo stuff I’m sure but hopefully they reunite when I’m an old duffer hungry for nostalgic hoots and howls

They were good.
As IC-Smic mentions upthread it was the BBC festival at Titanic Belfast and White Star Liner had been done just for it iirc and they debuted the whole thing live (the recorded version was a few months later) - thought it was really good. I must pick up a copy at some point. Not so familiar with the rest of their stuff but willing to give them a chance.

Ahhh OK. Awesome!

Yeh I recommend giving them a chance, my favourite album is The Race For Space. Got some cracking songs on IMO. :blush:

I’ve never been that fussed with them, but saw them live at Blue Dot a couple of years ago and thought they were dead good. That Progress song with Tracyanne Campbell from Camera Obscura is ace.

Would be great for me if they were better at capturing their live energy on record.
