Just as I started wondering if it might be a little too dominated by the sample it goes off in a different direction. Very good.

The album isn't due until 19th August, and apparently is more dark lyrically. Tracklisting:

1. ‘Down’
2. ‘Eleanor’
3. ‘Freakout/Release’
4. ‘Broken’
5. ‘Not Alone’
6. ‘Hard To Be Funky’ (feat. Lou Hayter)
7. ‘Time’
8. ‘Miss The Bliss’
9. ‘The Evil That Men Do’ (feat. Cadence Weapon)
10. ‘Guilty’
11. ‘Out Of My Depth’
 


Amazon actually delivered two days early, which never happens, so have been listening to this a bit. It kind of washed over me apart from the singles at first (and I do think Eleanor is the best here) but it is revealing its charms. Guilty is a bit of a standout as well as Hard To Be Funky which has Lou Hayter on the outro.

Ain't it hard to be funky when you're not feeling sexy :(
 
I had a first listen on my walk home today. Quite liked it but nothing jumped out. I’m glad as I’m seeing them live in a couple of months!
