I'm a hard copy guy, plus I'm thinking about ordering one with a t-shirt. LOL

But streaming will do for now.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I'm debating whether or not to get a copy now (money is tight).

I don't know why we can't more people into this band? The debut album knocked my socks off. I also have an autographed copy of Dear Lord No Deal. I've actually corresponded with Kavus on this site. He sent me a nice thank you PM for my review of Buried Alone. Big smile

It's about time we had a general thread for this awesome group, don't you think?

Clairvoyant Fortnight, their new EP (which isn't officially out till the 11th, according to the website) flopped onto my doormat this morning and after just one spin I'm already prepared to state that it's probably their most consistently brilliant offering to date. If they can sustain this kind of excellence for the duration of their next album then I believe their reputation as one of the UK's finest 21st century prog bands will be more or less guaranteed. So many ideas crammed into less than twenty minutes of music - perfectly balanced between dense complexity and deft, catchy hooks... Music that positively begs for an attentive ear. I love this band and I sincerely wish the prog community at large was as excited about them as I am.

For the uninitiated, I think Clairvoyant Fortnight would make an ideal introduction to just what's so exciting and unique about Knifeworld and, coupled with last year's Dear Lord, No Deal EP, it gives a very strong indication of where they've been heading during the transition from solo project to fully-fledged band.

Now is a good time to be excited about Knifeworld.
