On 11th August, Late of the Pier's long-anticipated debut was released. FINALLY! The days of listening to the bad-quality zarcorp demos are now over, as we can enjoy almost every song featured on the high-standard badly-recorded demo, in gleaming disk form.
The first two tracks blend together in a seamless fusion, which gives the record a professional feel prehaps not before associated with Late of the Pier.
The tracklisting is as follows, in bold are ANTI favirotes;
Hot Tent Blues
Broken
Space And The Woods
The Bears Are Coming
Random Girl
Heartbeat
Whitesnake
VW
Focker
The Enemy Are The Future
Mad Dogs And Englishmen
Bathroom Gurgle
If you haven't already, go out and buy this. You'll need it in disk form for the album sleeve's lyrics, as some vocals are a little hard to identify. Also CDS generally feel nicer than invisible unforgiving MP3 files.
One complaint we have is that LOTP didn't include 'circular' from the original demo, which is a brilliant Nirvana-meets-Joy Division-meets Queen genre-bashing song. Hoping to see this on the (cross fingers there will be one) second album or B side to the next single.
