Patterns

New satan!

Funny, thinking back to the gap between albums no.1 (Arrivals) and 2 (Even Temper) was like 6 years or so. 6 YEARS! Imagine that. These days there's a good chance 12+ albums would arrive in that time. Which brings me onto today's topic: release number six of the year - an 11+ minute monster called Patterns, and featuring the awesome Anchoress on some spoken word duties at the end:

I've had this in the tank for a while now, and whilst Bloodsport, Glass Infinites, 0207, and the few other bits and bobs around those releases, have all been and gone this year, I'd put Patterns back to the arse end of the year, trying to juggle two more prospective albums (one stuck in vinyl pressing hell for at least 3 years at this point), and at least one more single too. To hell with it! I thought, what could possibly happen that'll screw up this release? Let's just crack on and bang it out now!

Well, the queen died. That's a pretty big thing to get in the way, I suppose.

Anyway, if you've not heard it yet, Patterns is out now, and pay-what-you-want to boot. Good, eh?
