Found it after a few dead ends and one link going down mid-transfer. Iām five minutes into the first disc, and yes, this is very much the real deal
It is indeed.
Thereās a track list thatās being updated here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kA8u6UhjbutZ-b7TXzmX4qkOTg6nGC1vPg50WwCcZyo/mobilebasic
There are at least three versions of Lift better than the one released a couple of years ago.
Have the band made any comment about this yet?
Love the āfan namesā given to songs
Iād like to hear a compilation of the best bits. The tracks that were actual songs on the tape in 2017 (Let Down, Airbag etc) were amazing.
Seems that the version of Lift which is on disc/track 15 around 10 minutes in, is amazing people are saying.
Also thereās a cover of Ride to Atlantis, by Marvin Hamlisch, from the soundtrack to The Spy Who Loved Me. Hands up who saw that coming?
Itās not a cover I donāt think, itās a sample. Thereās a bunch of Bind music samples on that one. I think they are clips for inspiration, or something?
Holy shit
Imagine if this was just 17 hours of a fake

Pretty crazy stuff, must be a wild black market for this stuff
Ahh makes sense, gotcha.
Gonna listen to Lift again because it made very little impression on me the first time and I canāt really imagine it being a massive hit. Man O War was great, though.
Obviously at some point Iām going to trawl through and listen to all 17 hours of this stuff, multiple times. I would like to know how the band feel about the leak, though, first.
Itās just too much for me to even really contemplate. Iād like to hope the band curate it all for us. I didnāt buy the special version of OKC with the cassette though so I also feel like RH probably canāt officially release it without it being a bit of a slap in the face for those guys. Hmmā¦
Time was, these would be edited into a bunch of bootleg CDs with collage covers that youād find in the back of your local record store.
I suppose really, this is just a stopgap before we get Edās Samba album in the autumn.
I also feel like 17 hours implies a lot of either drek or just really similar takes to the album ones to the point you canāt even tell. Even if the band try to suppress this for all time I am confident thereāll be a tasty 60 minute best of created hiding out online that saves us the trouble.
Yeah, I mean Iād like to hear the best versions of released tracks and any unreleased sketches that are worth hearing. Not sure what the rest of it is though, and Iād be nervous that there isnāt like a 5 second sample thatās just so mind blowing that Iād have to hear it, OMG! tbf, Iād comfortably spend a few days WFH with it on in the background and get through the lot though
Is Follow Me Around on there? I couldnāt see it listed. Whatever happened to that song? It appeared in full on Meeting People Is Easy then seemed to vanish from history.
Just waiting for Bamnam to enter the thread and tell us all OK Computer is shit/heās never heard it but itās probably shit.
Iāll enjoy it tbf
