New recordings and live dates, what great news.

Brum's a definite, London a maybe, and Tilburg a fantasy !

The Euro release of the CD & LP are the same as the NA release of each. Not sure if you read the earlier links...but the LP & the CD are different from each other in artwork, track sequencing, editing, and some slight mixing. both releases have tracks exclusive to each format.

I understood that, I was just curious because sometimes when the same album gets released overseas, it contains some minor variations from being pressed and printed at different facilities (colour of vinyl, different hues in the artwork, extra credits...). Mostly I was curious because if there was a difference, the fanatics would be buying two copies of each and so it would be selling twice as fast.

There seems to be a sudden surge in popularity for White Hills, which is great, but it means that us old HH fans have to act quickly. One of those Verily cdrs just sold for 103 pounds on ebay this week!!! That is insane.

Oh, and thanks for keeping us informed at HH, we appreciate your kindness.

hi squid....just picked up a vinyl copy of the new album from one of my local, friendly independent record shop (mono in Glasgow). they had had a few copies on the shelf, so they're definitely about. not sure if norman's has them though.

Cant wait to get home and play it now !

I ordered one from Rough Trade over the weekend. Looking at their site now it looks like they've got them in stock :-)

I was in Rough Trade and they had about 15 copies of the vinyl album in there and a pile of the cd's as well. The vinyl looks lovely but I have to admit to knowing not a lot about these guys. Only heard the track Radiate. May have to pick up the vinyl just for the cover as it's a thing of silvery beauty. Only 1000 pressed? Prob make it a good investment too.

our new drummer is Lee Hinshaw. he used to play in CHILDREN (brooklyn based metal band). we call him Kid Jr because his style is very similar to Mr. Millions. Kid will still be around here and there as he has been...all depends on his commitments with Oneida.
