plaid Plaid; new EP

[theplaided]

Not sure how relevant this is to the actual thread, but (seeing as it's maybe the most active one at the mo)...

 

I got an email reply from Andy today to one I sent after their gig at Norwich Arts Centre last May, asking for a track ID for what we now take to be Trail: he said that he thought it was Trail (!) but a distorted version and that "it may end up on the EP to follow the new album"... I troll you not.

 

so this has to be a new thread....

lets collect all the info we could gather about a new Plaid EP, here. alright?

and i asked this to Andy, too, so,, lets see if that's true!

 

thanks Caretstik! for bringing in some good news! :)

No problem. If an EP does appear I wonder if it'd be in 2011 (no snide comment about Scintilli's delay intended)? Like I said in the other thread, such a release pattern (album followed by pretty much stand-aloneEP) has happened on Warp a few times recently, and it's obvious Plaid've got enough unused tracks left over to make an EP viable. I just hope that if there is an EP to follow it's made up of stand-alone tracks rather than lifted album tracks, although Plad have hardly ever resorted to that.

i would welcome an EP - i think the album is worthy of one.

There will be a follow up EP early next year, no release date yet.

 

this is from Andy's e-mail to me! :))

 

so i go :

this is very good news indeed. did you ask how many tracks there's gonna be? and what the new tracks will be?

[theplaided]

no i didnt. he read like he was very busy. so i didnt wanna bother anyways..

Well the reply to mine did take over a year...

[theplaided]

well its weird. from what i know, they reply to lots of people in reasonable time! :S idk

[Guest sirch]

well they must get hundreds of emails. and like anybody, you're gonna reply to the people you know first.. , i suppose. i would.

pleasure before business! :)

I emailed them about the "Plaid films" Bob Jaroc uploaded on Vimeo and Andy told me that "HD scintilli vids will be there too soon". So I guess we can expect more Scintilli videos soon.

[Caretstik]

The wait for a reply isn't a problem, don't get me wrong. I'm impressed that they bothered at all (and they have to the few I've sent so far), however long afterwards.

Great news!

[Guest melanie]

Surely this is not the EP. SURELY not..... right???

[theplaided]

no, it isn't,

luckily :)

Damn, I look at this topic now and it looks like that Scintilli EP never happened. Wonder if something got in the way or if they were dissatified or something?

I hope the Polymer EP isn't the same outcome.

I feel like a P-Brane.
