Today is new-album-release-day for James as their first output since the reformation gets unleashed on the world! Not quite... unless you live in the UK "Hey Ma" is not yet available (predicted Canada release is two weeks away). The seemingly long-gone practice of holding back foreign release dates (and watching loyal fans pay triple for imports) is not all that long-gone apparently. Congratulations music companies... just when we all thought you couldn't get your heads up your asses any further...So, today, I bought the excellent Crystal Castles instead. Not quite in the same genre as James, this Canadian electronica duo's sound is more video game than the soaring anthems James has to offer. The video for Air War is listed as a fan creation but its pretty near spot-on and suitably creepy in its own unique little way...

Still waiting.I think I'm just days away now. Amazon said the 15th.
BTW I just found out Kimya is playing in Eugene and Portland at the end of the month. So, how much do you want to see her? And us? ;-)
You're under a moratorium on gloating until the 22nd!
Don't go inviting me - I prefer to hear about it afterwards and whine.
