Two new song titles; 'Integral' and 'Psychological'.

This is second-hand info from the other site, but so far we have heard that

– the album has real drums on every tracks and lots of guitars
– much of it sounds like Pink Floyd according to Trevor Horn
– new track titles: Integral and Psychological
– it's still quite electronic-sounding but with power chords, says Neil
– they started out to make a minimal electronic album but the result is one epic after another.

Nope and nope, not from what I've read so far anyway.

Er. Yes and yes. Just read the whole thing and all the above is correct, Steve.

guitars ? More ?

Pink Floyd ? Oh no. Drums ? Only if Neil and Chris play them, please.
Integral and Psychological ? Very weird.

How exactly would the drums sound different if it was Neil and Chris banging them?

Neil: "This album is from the makers of 'It's a Sin'."

Chris: "It's sounds quite expensive, which I know is very important to people."

Neil: "We've made an album of sweeping epics, one after another."

Chris: "Musically it's a bit triumphalist isn't it?"
Neil: "Yes. Threateningly triumphalist."

Bring it on!

Disagree. One thing that held Release down in terms of production was that they didn't use drummers instead of programming drums meant to sound real (programming electronic drums is a breeze, programming "real" drums is a nightmare, and sounds crap anyway).

The more guitars the better.
