Didn't even know it was out as a matter of fact. I did post a few weeks ago about the 12" that preceded it (I forget the title) but sadly to no response. > ...is this the same Ultramarine as "Everybody is a Star", etc is... Yes, the LP is called "A Users Guide" and I'm dying to hear it. I really really rate their stuff - the last LP was excellent and Every Man and Woman is probably my favourite record full stop. As a band they should be up there with Orbital, Black Dog, Aphex etc but instead they remain criminally underrated. Not much press or promotion for the new LP either by the looks of things, but it's good that they're out of all that label wrangling with Blanco Y Negro. > Does this mean the label is going to start releasing more (They > released As One, Florence, and a few good comps before the media phrase > "electronica" was adopted)..? Dunno. I thought they were still going strong before the new Ultramarine LP, but come to thing of it they don' seem to have put much out of late... gb. -- /TheW i http://www.homeusers.prestel.co.uk/lwtcdi/all/4recguid.htm f o L D o dlr WTC "The truth behind record shopping in Huddersfield"
