Do you think there is a chance for TOU to be nominated for Mercury Prize ? (2013 or 2014)
I don't know this system very well, I just know it's kinda prestigious in UK.

It's about time they were nominated again. I would have thought it would miss this years nominations seeing as albums not out until September and the show usually is same month.
Still, there's things like the Brits next year ( whatever people think to that show!). Maybe even an Ivor Novello? :)>-

they deserve it. they deserved it for felt mountain. i'm really irrationally butthurt they didn't win it for FM actually haha

edit: well actually it occurs to me that maybe i should wait until i actually hear the album before i go around proclaiming that it deserves prizes but, ya know

edit 2: actually

I agree, they do deserve it. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Hahaha! Yeah, I haven't heard it, either, but I'm also convinced the deserve it! I guess that's just faith in the people involved.

i really concur that MUTE may have blown this....the buzz over the weekend on the net about the Manchester shows was ASTOUNDING....they should have coordinated or moved up release to first half of August...no?

Certain people have been very... show-offy that they have listened to / obtained the new album.

Not mentioning names. :-\"

July/august are simple not the best months to release an album. Unless it's packed with hits for the summer.
September is a much more logical choice. Especially if you want to release something major.
Although there might be some stiff competition as Arctic Monkeys and Arcade Fire are releasing new albums in the same week.
Emiliana Torinni is too btw.

HolyOwl

And so are London Grammar, Nine Inch Nails, Placebo and MGMT, Timberland and Chvrches.

Arcade Fire's album doesn't come out until the end of October does it not?

HolyOwl

They said there will be new material in September but album release is set for October.

Ah, ok. Guess there's still plenty in September to keep me happy then :)

Alan

46 days feels like 46 years right now.
