Damn, I'll be buying this. All the pretty videos.

I AM WHAT I AM NOT,

I AM WHAT I AM NOT....

 

Yay!

 

I should listen to them some time again. Some of their riffs are really smashing...

any of you guys into them? i have totally loved this band since i was like 12. they aren't huge like colplay, but did well in 2002. i think they are seriously underrated, any of you feel the same way?

Granted, 100 Broken Windows and The Remote Part are equally brilliant albums.

I wish they'd be making more albums like that.

One of my favourite bands.

 

Can't believe there's not been a thread for them already! :dead:

 

I agree with 'RadioMad' - 100 broken windows and The Remote part were fucking brilliant Albums!

 

Though I loved Warnings/Promises aswell.

 

only really into about 3 or 4 songs from the make another world album.

it was, lets face it... dreadful.

 

They need to get back to writing like they used to.

 

none of this "we wanted to JUST write a rock record and forget the folk and acoustic stuff!"

Tell me Ten words is my favourite song, it is EPIC.

Idlewild are pleased to announce plans for our forthcoming new studio album with an opportunity for our fans to be involved from an early stage.

 

We will be in the studio for the first few months of 2009 and plan a conventional album release in the summer, but for a limited time, we would like to offer our fans a chance to be involved from the beginning by pre-ordering directly from us a special edition album along with plenty of extras. This offer is available worldwide so that finally our fans overseas will have the chance to hear our music at the same time as everyone in the UK and before any general release.

 

Here's how it works:

By pre-ordering now for £15 (+ £1.50 standard postage costs) you will receive:

 

- A limited edition CD album (with free download version) in exclusive packaging and including at least one bonus track not available on the general release. This will be shipped to you within weeks of completion, hopefully April (although we cannot guarantee it), way before any general release.

- Your name will appear in a booklet with the album and on a roll-call on the website.

- You will be given access to download 15 free tracks of your choosing from live recordings at the King Tuts "album by album" shows in December '08.

- You will also have access to a members only section of the website with album progress updates, exclusive photo and video content from the recording and pre production process, diaries/blogs by individual band members, and lots more good stuff....

Good way for the band to raise some more money.

aw hey wow, thanks for posting that.

 

finally, being stuck in the wrong part of the world musically won't be a handicap :nice:

Anyone else a fan of this great Scottish band??

Oh my GOD! Someone else who likes Idlewild!! I was going to see them a week ago in Stratchclyde University Union but fell ill that night and couldn't go! A great band who are a hidden gem.

I liked Idlewild like, five years ago.

 

And forgot about them.

 

But this thread made me remember! :laugh4:

Excellent :)

 

Roll on a couple weeks time down Southsea

Listened to the new album today. Really brilliant with that definite Idlewild sound to it with a nod to Roddy's solo album on a couple of the tracks.

Just a reminder of how great this band is.

And here's Secret Is My Silence from Roddy's album of the same name. Having been soaked with folk culture all my life I have to say there isn't much this sort of music can beat!
