Between blood and wine cd

[DannySan]

Listened to it a couple of times. BDAW was an instant hit with me but I feel this one is going to take a few more listens to before it I really get into BWAB.

P/M me your address, I will send you mine .In reality mine is redundant after it is on Pod

Shush this mssg sums up what makes NMA's following what it is, and in turn can I buy you a beer pre or post rock city, we failed to meet up last time fella

Adrian sorted me out with a ticket after I f$cked up on getting one in time for Bristol this year. I maintain the following are just the best group of people

Lookin forward to seeing everyone again at Xmas, Sarfend seems a long time agp

[Shush]

That's jolly decent of you old chap.

I kind of already planned that this time I would just make a B-line to the Tap N Tumbler pub, no specific time, but early. Met up with Texas Pete in the Punk Bar, but when we got to the TAP, all the familiar faces were there

And can I just say, as the guy on the receiving end of Shush's generosity (not for the first time... drinks in Warrington!) I am also in awe of how people on this forum, who've you've never met, offer you something for nothing... I've had tickets for NMA gigs offered for free, not to mention someone else offering me a copy of the new album (cheers again, M...) ... 

Can't wait for Nottingham... please, lets get as many folks there in the pub before the gig. Lets have a few drinks beforehand and them steam over there, mob-handed, and watch the streets scatter before us...

Anybody in the US seeing their packages arrive yet?

Arrived in Canadian mailboxes yesterday Szmurf so it should be close; must say I'm pretty impressed with the shipping from the shop. Loving the new tracks so far but I've got a few more rotations before I can really comment. Outstanding artwork by Joolz, as always. Great package and I'm always so grateful when the lads take the time to autograph.

just delivered to my mailbox today in Chicago....the cover book, Joolz art, lyrics all look so awesome (really an amazing package, kudos to all who worked on this nice presentation)...super duper excited to listen to this one a billion times or more!!

I am in the US and got mine on the 6th before the release. I am very impressed by the speed on delivery. I am guessing people on the Atlantic side would get theirs first.

Arrived in the post yesterday(Ireland). Collected from home at lunch, workshop rocking all afternoon. Super packaging & signed(not many bands take the time for the little things that can mean so much). Love the new t-shirt. As for the music, well if music be food, then I was feasting like a king! If this is the result of down time due to Michael's misfortune, well, not to wish pain on anybody, but.....!!!!

OK, I'll finally post my opinion on BWAB...

First off, the live CD... it's always great to hear live NMA stuff.  I'm listening to it a lot.  But it does seem to be very close to the sound of BDAW... a few bits, here and there, are different to the recorded versions, but not exactly done differently like we are expecting from the Christmas gigs...  enjoyable but not quintessential...

No matter.  The new tracks... all six of them are great.  Yes, as a long-term rock fan, I like ANGRY PLANET best of all.  It's great and I think it should be opening track of set 1 at Nottingham.  HAPPY TO BE HERE is probably my second fave, deffo sounds like something from NBTS, which is one of my favourite albums ever.  ACCORDING TO YOU sounds like something off of TLOHC, great track.  DEVILS BARGAIN has BDAW written all through its DNA, great track and IMO could have replaced one or two tracks from that album.  GUESSING is very enjoyable but not exactly one of my favourites.  Seems a bit NMA-by-numbers, but I'm glad so many of you lot like it.  SUNRISE... it's one that is getting played a lot and grows on me more and more with every listen.  Not a favourite right now but I suspect it might become one.

Can I just say that the artwork on this album is one of the very, very best that has ever been done by Joolz?  Just fantastic... and I'd love a completely red-t-shirt with the album cover on the front and some brilliant quote on the back...?   

Another terrific release from the lads.  ******* love it

I'll keep this one short,new 6 track album is ******* ace, better than the doors, slayer, the cure,all of which I'm hearing,this time the bass is really coming through and is close to morrow standard, the live cd is how bdaw should have sounded, rawer with more guitars, good but not much talk from justin, all in all great, if some of the weaker bdaw tracks had been replaced by the bbaw tracks it could have been the best ever nma album.

[Anna Woman von NRW]

if some of the weaker bdaw tracks had been replaced by the bbaw tracks it could have been the best ever nma album.

Interesting thought. What would you cut and what would you paste ? 

[Pol]

Would it be called between dog n blood or wine n wolf
Gonna agree that a prefer the live set though nma have always been a live band,then again the live set is new to all our play lists
Both records deserve their separate place in nma history

[huwcamden]

I'd replace horsemen/make it safe/seven times + ghosts with angry planet/guessing/according to you + happy to be hear,theres an album!
