No record, yet, but I live in the US. Middle of next week probably.
I just received an email stating that my records have been shipped. If this is anything like my Christmass experience, I should be receiving them about mid-September, and one week later they will be available absolutely everywhere for around 50 cents a piece or so. |

They have copies of the single available at Gibert Joseph - St Michel in Paris.
I bought mine today! But as I no longer have a turntable, I can't listen to the B-Side... What a delicious tragic life!

Threshold Apprehension 7" has arrived in Lewisville, TX. According to the customs label, it was sent June 5. Sounds really good. I just put it on. Nice, fat drums on the a-side.
The cover is the same one as 1965 posted on a previous page.
If there's any coupon or code for a free download here, I don't see it. Not that it matters to me. I prefer making my own vinyl rips anyway. |

"Gat Away Oil".
It's not a big deal, but it's not bad. It sounds like a weird blues song. It's just Frank doing a singing-then-growling thing over a sole electric guitar. Parts of the melody remind me of "American Woman" by The Guess Who.
It's definitely a b-side sorta thing.
"Threshold Apprehension" sounds really good as a single. It also doesn't seem to be any kind of "radio edit", though I haven't analyzed it next to what leaked. |

I got mine in the mail yeserday. Amazing since I incorrectly put my mailing country as United Kingdom. I am one of those silly people who ordered and no longer has a record player... so I can't wait to hear it.

Like your style as ever Denis. Short and concise, and i always thought that French people tended to over elaborate and be over creative with language. Well that myth has been disproved.
Are you going to make the show tonight? |

Well thanks for the kind words. I hope I'll be able to make it, though it won't be easy, with the kids at home and all.

Ah you have to go Denis, you would nearly be the FB.net honourary guest.
I urge you on behalf of this whole forum. (as long as you guys are cool with it) to go and expierience the new band in all it's glory at it's first outing in Europe.
Christ it's history man, do it for your country and your forum.
I amd going to the gig in Amsteram and can hardly wait.
Go forth Denis and we shall all live vicariously through you for the evening.

| Hm...I'm not digging Get Away Oil. Sounds like a toss-off to me, which it probably is. Murky production too. I can't imagine listening to it again. Of course, Threshold Apprehension is awesome, though. |

Threshold Apprehension arrived in VA today. It is beautiful, and Get Away Oil is a great FB/BF B-side. It could be the answer/responce to Snake Oil, but I just imagine it being slipped into the setlist of an acoustic solo show.

For the record, Sam, you convinced me. I'll be eternally grateful for this.
