The Incredible Pop Will Eat Itself were supposed to release an album in 1996. It was recorded and a couple of instrumental teaser tracks were released, but then the band split up, the whole thing was shelved and that was that...until I got a facebook message a couple of months ago telling me that "A Lick of the Old Cassette Box" had been remastered by none other than Clint Mansell himself and was going to finally be released on 26th August 2013. I ordered my copy and this morning I rushed into work, expecting to find a CD-shaped package on my desk. No such luck, and checking the website it seems the release date has now been pushed back to 9th September.
Gah, this is turning out to be the longest 17 years ever.

He did those thrashing violins that were originally on Requiem for a dream but then got hi-jacked by Sky Sports News and a bunch of other shitty adverts. You'd know it if you heard it.

He's not an infantile fanboy about stuff that was barely mediocre twenty years ago. What an ignorant prick.

I was 6, so I suppose I could have been infantile then.

..that involves humiliating women using 1980's toys and closeted homosexuality.

He composed a twee little tune for a whiny film when the money from his rock 'stardom' ran out and some dreary media pricks used it as their default background musak for a couple of years.

It's a tried and tested formula, in a minute localboy will show up and oh-so-wittily post something like "Will a PWEI CD fit up a ropey bird's fetid mimsy?"

CDs are tough bastards though, slamming them in a car door just about does the job.

Perhaps you've felt the need to break many over the years so have built up strength in those muscles.

It's really not that difficult. You squeeze, they fold.
