    Isn't Pendelum before LTRP? And what is up with the downloads?

    Downloads at the end of the review? That's basically how they highlight their favourite songs from the album, those they've identified as being key tracks.

    Can't really read that longer review. Can anyone transcribe?

    Sorry, I probably won't have time to transcribe. On the photos on fb (and I guess on photobucket when it's back up) you can read the text if zoomed on the photo.
    If not the magazine will be in shops soon.

    I feel cheesy for saying it but my favorite part of this is seeing how happy they all look together in that picture. Especially Ed and Stone laughing together.

    Ahhh, ok. It sounded like they were made these songs available as downloads on their website or something. I don't have the picture in front of me, which were the highlights according to them? I remember Getaway and ....

    Thanks... The songs I am mostly curious about and Infallible. I think Pendulum will be the experimental highlight for me however. (I am a sucker for experimental song. I am one of those sad dudes that spend a whole night listening to Stupidmop on repeat, to decipher the meaning for myself. Quite a depressing experience.)

    Peeps seem to be doing it, so I can't advise sorry. The magazine is in the shops on Tuesday so you can buy it then. There's an Elliott Smith article and a section on the Manics if you're into them.

    Perfect. I wonder if that's a new Monkeywrench logo.
