I'm interested to see if the tracks flow into each other or there are reprised moments (like the 'Denver Luna' acapella being in there), as 16 is a lot of tracks for a group who have done a fair few lengthy tracks in their time.

Well I've been obsessed with Denver Luna recently (as well as that remix) so I'm pretty excited for this... but still cautious... Yeah 16 is a hell of a lot of tracks for an Underworld album... Maybe a lit of short interludes/ambient pieces?

Thanks @mcbpete

 

Hmm, yeah @BUNKUM , ok 15 tracks, gotta say yes, it is quite a bit of tracks for a usual UW album, from there I thought it was going to be a double album, but ok guess not. They are known to get into ambience, so hmmmmm.

The blurb on their site says "please don't shuffle" so I'm guessing this will be very heavily linked, maybe bunched together as four side-long suites for the vinyl.

How's the fishing on the Bristol Avon nowadays? C'mon Robert! Bank a big one! Those Mr Whiskers been munching hard on crayfish and shrimp. The next one will be massive! Maybe a record breaker. But you gotta be there when the river is dropping from high water, the moon phase has to be correct and low presssure sweeping in from the Atlantic. Then The Beast will bite. At midnight. 
 

Good luck!
