yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woooooooo. Hoooray!

I CAN’T WAIT THAT LONG.

this is amazing news. i am inordinately excited now. nice tracklisting!

Guys,

This is really fantastic stuff. I’m a little tickled by the tracklisting – it looks like your tours around the US have leaked into some song titles, and I have to wonder if some of the UKers know what the Show Me State and Sooner State are. I will say, however, that I hate the Sooner State. I will also say that I hope the Lone Star State can make it in to any future track you might record.

Also, that appears to be a large amount of material, which I know all of us (fans) are excited about. Out of curiosity, about how much material was there that didn’t make it on to the album?

Best,
Kyle

AMAZING

Excellent! I will be anticipating this every day until it drops. <3

YES.

Although don’t wanna wait that long

Stupid question maybe, but is that the artwork?

Cause the handwriting looks like “Romance is Boning” which would send out a completely different message.

I HOPE IT ISN’T THE ARTWORK

This is the most exciting news I have had in a while; the song titles are absolutely amazing, glad to see there’s a part 2. Can’t wait to hear what Jamie and Zac added to the album.

AHHHHHH!

Ciaran,

A different message for sure, but not altogether untrue!

Heart Swells/100-1 intrigues me so very much.

How exciting! Agree with Megan, the song titles are excellent (I feel like adding an ‘as ever’ there. Is that allowed? Ah, what the heck, I’m going for it) as ever.

cant wait !

This has made my day. Can’t wait.

OH HAPPY DAY

Can we confirm/deny that script being the album artwork?

No it’s not the album artwork.

Fantastic!
Do you know if you’ll be able to get it put out in Argentina?

Yes. Heard four of the songs already. US tour? If so, come to detroit.

phew.

This day is getting better by the minute. First my favorite Spongebob came on, then I realized I had a pack of M&M’s in my purse (it’s the little thing), and now this! I’m glad to see The Sea Is A Good Place To Think About The Future on the list. You might have said if it was going to be on there or not but I am a bit oblivious. And the Show Me State reference makes me smile. I forgot about that until just now.

are any of those songs the new one you played at lolla? I know you said it was called IIB but I’m curious.

cant wait. great song titles, will undoubtedly be matched with some great lyrics. very excited.

i once auditioned to front a posthardcore band who had a song called In Media Res. WHICH SONG IS BETTER!??!?!? http://www.myspace.com/rollcallforthesecondsite

oh wait theirs was called In MediUS Res.

OH AND THANK YOU FOR YESTERDAY IN GENERAL

Oh my god, I can’t wait for this, I think this somehow topped my excitement for LCD Soundsystem, The National, and Massive Attack’s new albums next year.

Hooray! Next year will be a good year.

This more than makes up for the lack of sleep and the ladybug infestation on my dorm room! February can’t come qyick enough, who needs Christmas and New Year’s is the most unsatisfying thing……..

I AM SO EXCITED FOR FEBRUARY FIRST

Absolutely amazing, albeit I would like to know what makes an Oklahoma shaped burn…

IT WILL MAKE A PERFECT SLIGHTLY-BELATED BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR ME.

I love you guys.

Oh, never mind, the burn thing seems to be a common-theme, though I really hope the members of LC! stay away from hot objects shaped like middle-American states.

After having just let myself down very much due to the fact I can not make a rose out of tissue paper like most able-handed people, this has truly made my day about a thousand times better.
Gonna save all my Christmas money for this.

Yessssssssssssssssssssss! So fucking looking forward to this, The Sea Is a Good Place & Listed Buildings have been in my head for days now.
Love you guys x

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG
“…(Documented Minor Emotional Breakdown #2)”

I WAS HOPING THERE’D BE ONE OF THESE

Awesome, most definitely looking forward to it. Excited most by a potential “Heart Swells” sequel.

oh merde! THIS IS TOO MUCH EXCITEMENT. now my homework will never be done, as i plan to continue daydreming about romance and how it is incredibly boring… or not. nvm lost the point.

but i still love you guys <3

if the tracklisting is any indication, i am gonna love this. thanks, mates!

This is so exciting! It’s a bit eerie to see the references to Oklahoma and Missouri, seeing as how I was born in one state and lived in the other. Are you writing about my life?

It’s your e-mail!

YES! I’m so excited! hey it’s close to my birthday! nothing better than Los Campesinos for your birthday I would say..

Yes I’m also excited for Heart Swells! and DMEB #2! I can’t contain my excitement.

Im really excited about this album!

i’m going to explode out of sheer excitement.
i love you and wish i hadn’t heard of this news, the next few months are going to be unbearable.

I hope to GOD the album artwork looks like that. If not ACTUALLY that.

I fricking love you guys.

So excited. DMEB #2?! Can’t wait.

15 tracks! You guys are the most prolific and generous band I know for great quality output. Thank you.
Feb 1st is marked in my diary – next to the SFX weekender which starts on the 5th – it’s a great week for music-loving sci-fi fans! Oh yes.

Yusss! Waiting patiently fer the preorder.

Also, obligatory ‘Puh-lease comez to Australia!’ despite the fact that you guys can’t just decide to pack and fly over…

!!!!!!!!!!!
Exciting

Way too exciting!

The song titles are awesome! February 1st seems so far away…

Is Feb. 1st the international release date?

yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
soo excited for heart swells!
and please please please come back to mineapolis!

Can’t fucking wait.

February 1st… over three months away. I can’t wait for the album. I hope it will entail another tour of the states, including Oregon. The awesomeness level has risen!

My news reader lists unread items in reverse chronological order. A consequence is that I finished reading,

“It is a record about the death and decay of the human body, sex, lost love, mental breakdown, football and, ultimately, that there probably isn’t a light at the end of the tunnel.”,

and immediately moved on to an upbeat review of Hudson’s salmon creole. Knowing where to get good salmon creole is surely as good a consolation as any when you’ve learned there is no light at the end of the tunnel.

As with everyone else, I’m grateful that you’re making music, and am excited about the new album.

Best wishes

I’m really looking forward to this

What became of “Too Many Flesh Suppers?” I was really looking forward to it from what you had to say about it in your P4K interview

w/r/t Ryan’s comment, would I be correct in guessing that it became The Sea Is A Good Place…?

oh, goodness…oh, goodness– this is going to be insane.

“This Is A Flag. There Is No Wind”
Is this a moon-landing conspiracy theory reference?
Because if it is, then that would be awesome.

Will my favourite album of the next decade released a month in? I guess it won’t be LC! fault for the following diminishing returns from other people that can’t match their awesomeness.

P.S. Romance totally isn’t boring if you do it right and spontaneously.

ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff yes. So excited.

Hooorayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
good news, this. DMEB#2 : awesomeness!
thanks for making this monday less…monday-ish.

So much excitement for this guys.

but definitely worth it!!
Amazing gig in cov, see you in brum in december!

Matt x

Four months and a week. That makes me sad. But then, reading the tracklist and the brilliant namnes of the songs makes me slightly happier.

Omg! I am now having a heart attack! Can’t wait! Love the album name and song titles! Ahhhh I can’t wait until February! >.< Yaaaaaaay!I will buy ten thousand copies of it(okay, maybe just two)! XD

SO EXCITED!!!!

You put on the Myspace blog that there was more on the website, so I clicked the link hoping for maybe a streaming sample or more disturbing/compelling band photos only to find the exact same press release! Shame on the ol’ bait & switch.

Oh, hey – new album?! Um, yes please! All is forgiven. Huzzah!

I cannot wait!!!

I hope this also means another tour in the US!

Best news I’ve heard in a while… Hope there will be a tour in America next year

I think in the past you’ve said that your next American tour will be in January. Doesn’t this mean that you’ll now have to leak the album if you want that “everyone’s singing along to all of my songs!” feeling? Artistic vision takes a backseat to ego-pumping anyday…

Also curious: in the 12 track name, is that the Charlotte of previous mention? She seems involved in a number of your maladies.

Thanks LC!

Only 97 days to go………

i shat brix.

YES!

Is going to be a loooong wait.

Amazing. It’s released earlier in Canada! January 26th. (http://www.arts-crafts.ca/)

YYYAAAAYYYYY!! I knew you were going to end up calling it that! Love the song titles as well (massively excited about sequels to what are some of my favourite songs ever!!

Plus, I now have a t-shirt with both full album titles on.
ROMANCE IS BORING!!!
xxxxxx

woooooooooo hoooooooooooooo! artwork please! can’t freaking wait. and, as usual, song titles are amazing.

Campy-heads

Not to be demanding BUT is there a significant amount of glockenspiel on the new album (couldn’t help but notice there was considerably LESS glock rock on WAB compared to HONY; I love the glock)? Also, has Tom written an incredible keys part for this album (I am thinking WABWAD)? The few songs we have heard are amazing but they don’t answer these questions.
Any tour info (Both times I have seen you guys its been a days drive into the heart of america)?
When can I get the single?

i was hyperventilating when i read this! haha crazy…well i am indescribably excited!hope time flies fast haha…

There better be an American tour! I need to see LC! again soon! >.<

[...] que eran mejores al principio, ¿no creéis? Por cierto, mola la auto-descripción que han dejado en su web: Es un disco sobre la muerte y el declive del cuerpo humano, el sexo, el amor perdido, las crisis [...]

Nice, guys. Very nice.

I’m definitely not hesitating about a purchase here. February is just too far away, though!

Looks mighty enticing, cheers!

awwwwwwwwwwwww yeah

MEAN!! CRUEL!! That’s what you guys are!!
Why make us suffer that long waiting for the new album??

Just kidding! Counting the days here in Brazil.
Love ya.

I needed some good news after the defeat on Merseyside this past Sunday. Well done LC! You have brightened my day

Hope to see you in Seattle again in the new year.

Cheers!

I think I love you more than my own family.

I haven’t been this happy since Ronald Reagan passed.

can’t wait. this is gonna be great. more than great, actually.

just for irony’sake you should hold off and release the album feb 14th.. but so so so excited!

thank you guys for being so prolific. You have been my favorite band since the first lp. Gareth your lyrics are second to none. Please come back to cleveland and maybe smoke a joint and sing songs.

Romance is boring was on the back of the booklet that came with WABWAD.
I’m such a nerd

i like the o and the g

The title track sounded great when you played in London. I can’t wait to get it on CD!

cant wait for documented minor emotional breakdown # 2. i loved #1.

sweet i knew something was going to be announced, but jan. of 2010? why not during the holiday season…but i love “the sea is a good place to think of the future” the wait is going to be worth it…

How long until this gets leaked?

Ahhhh, will be so good.
I saw you a at O2 academy oxford, you guys were amazing. Gareth, me and my friends talked tp you while you were sitting by the T-shirt stand, we had a picture with you! Thanks

shut yer face, David! Let’s all be patient together.

for you, David

Agree with Will, Romance Is Boring sounded great on Wednesday, really looking forward to the rest of it I was the weird girl putting !s on the posters in the toilets

i could not be more excited about this. ugh, february hurry up!

Leak it now.
???
Profit.

Gareth you should put some signed albums up for pre-order. I would be willing to pay more if I could get one signed
Srsly.
My room does not have enough los campesinos paraphernalia. How else can I implicitly let people know that I have cynical views of romance and death?

I really really really can’t wait for this, but I promised myself I would be patient with this one. Any details on the vinyl release?

Feb 1st? My birthday! So going to get that after school when it comes around XD

Omg, I just cant wait!

Here you go gay boy. Send me sexually explicit messages. Come to London and kiss me

ahhhhh, i really really want to see the artwork..
