Well I'm excited by the thought of new Scott.

Weirdly, I've recently been getting back into The Drift a bit after I finally got round to seeing 30 Century Man which made me appreciate what he's getting at a bit better. I've always loved Tilt, but felt when it came out that The Drift was just too much dissonance without any of the moments of real beauty that Tilt has.

However, I kind of filed it away as an album that I knew I'd come back one day and plumb its greater depths, and I do feel like I've finally started to do that.

For the new one, I draw a slight sliver of hope from this sentence on the website:

"If The Drift was a dark place, full of scorching orchestral textures and ominous rumblings, Bish Bosch is a tauter but more colourful experience".

I'm not expecting it to be Take That And Party, but the title certainly sounds a little more playful.

It'll probably take me another six years to get into it though.
