I'm waiting for my favourite local mail order to get it in stock before I choose from where to order. My local mail order service have never failed me over the last 30 years so I'd be reluctant to order from somewhere else. Especially from a UK service to EU.

From listening to the tracks for the single, it sounds like this album might be a return to the glory of Fundamental's meaty and spacious sound. I'm quite happy if that is the case.

Cool album cover, but I think I prefer the startling red of the "Loneliness" cover art.

I'm quite intrigued to hear "Schlager" and "Narcissus."

Totally subjective, but I'm not immediately convinced by the track titles. I'm getting slight 'Nightlife' vibes from both the music and lyrics of Loneliness and titles like 'New London Boy' (for obvious reasons), and 'The secret of happiness'. Not entirely a bad thing, but fingers crossed!
Love comes quickly, but is a catastrophe and a bourgeois construct etc.

In concert they can play a mash-up of their three ‘Happiness’ songs! 😎

Very silly trivia note: Nonetheless will be the very first PSB studio album to be released in a year ending with the numeral "4."

Ordered the white double-vinyl with print from official site. I'm also a sucker for a bit of clear vinyl so have ordered the Amazon exclusive too. Not bothered about the grey so much at the moment.

There's a lot of repetition of words in these songs. Not just the ones I mentioned earlier but from previous songs too -
Happiness
Dancing
New
Boy
Hit
London

I finally get it. The cover album their mouth are illuminated because it doesn't matter what they would sing. Nonetheless
