yeah, sure, i got the ironic thing^^

didn't know about the welsh name though, i see... i actually thought he meant the american accent, which would have made sense as well *g*

If you listen again, you'll notice he refers to Gwyneth as being Welsh, which of course isn't the case.;)

Ooh, Travis are apart from Coldplay and Keane one of my favourite bands! I think I've discovered them sometime last year, although I'd of course heard bits of "Why does it always rain on me?" or "Sing" before. Then I got their album "The Boy with no name" as a present and I just couldn't stop listening to the songs for ages... Now I've got all of their albums and I think it's a pity I haven't paid more attention to them earlier. My favourite songs are "My Eyes", "Side" and "The Last Laugh of the laughter"... I'm already looking forward to a new album. :)

Has anyone else who ordered the new J. Smith 10 inch vinyl got their copy this morning? I woke up to the joy of finding the postman had dropped it off a whole 2 days before I was supposed to get it :dance: I was so excited and I nearly passed out when I opened the package to see that my copy had been signed by the band :dance: I don't know if they're signing all of them, has anyone else received their copy this morning?

Travis Returns With 'Ode', New Label Deal

 

By Lars Brandle, London

 

Scottish melodic rock quartet Travis is lining up a late September release for their sixth studio album, which will arrive through the resuscitated Red Telephone Box label.

 

The new album, "Ode To J Smith," will land on Sept. 29, thanks to a new label and distribution agreement struck with Integral, a division of [PIAS] UK.

 

A limited edition 10" vinyl recording of three new tracks will arrive this Monday (June 30). Those songs will also appear for sale on most legitimate download services. Fans who pre-order the EP on the band's official Web site will receive a signed copy and the digital bundle for £3.99 ($7.80). A commercial single release will street on Sept. 18.

 

The new deal with Integral and the revival of Red Telephone Box marks the conclusion of the band's fruitful collaboration with Independiente, through which Travis's five albums sold more than 10 million albums worldwide, according to the group's management.

 

Red Telephone Box was originally launched in 1996 to release Travis' debut 10" EP, "All I Want To Do Is Rock". The following year, they signed with Independiente. Their most recent album, "The Boy With No Name," opened at No. 4 in the United Kingdom following its release in May 2007, selling 36,000 copies in its first week, according to the Official U.K. Charts Company.

 

"This arrangement," comments the band's manager Ian McAndrew, of Wildlife Entertainment, "allows Travis to retain full creative control of their music and affords us the full support of the Integral team to assist in the running of the label." Talks are ongoing to license the album abroad.

 

Integral specialises in providing services to record labels, artists and artist managers who want to independently release music both physically and digitally.

 

The firm will provide support and infrastructure to Red Telephone Box and will work closely with the band and their management to take full advantage of revenue-spinning opportunities.

^Do you reckon they were inspired by "Ode To Deodorant"??:rolleyes:

Travis are amazing! It was actually my Mum who bought the album "The Man Who"...I discovered it later and realised how good they were!

 

Favourite song - Follow the Light, although I definitely rate Driftwood, Safe and Flowers in the Window as well...
