Title: Tinyfish - The Big Red Spark Pre-Order
Post by: Nellie on August 14, 2010, 10:06:27 AM
At last the button has arrived for ordering The Big Red Spark. The album will be available at the Luminiere gig before the album release so you can pre-order and collect it.

Do it now  :D

so did I! can't wait!

(but I wish countries would get this money thing right.  $22 is a lot for an album.)

I think I'll be in a suitable position to order when I get back from my Dad's next Friday. Money's on hold 'til then, I'm afraid.

Knowing the bunch in that band, I doubt it.

Album pre-ordered, listening to the show now. I haven't been this excited in a long, long time!  :D

If anyone doesn't know who Tinyfish are, or what they do, or why on Earth you should care, then you should listen to that podcast. It holds all the answers.  8-)

I've been listening to the album section of this pretty much non-stop and it is terrific stuff.
Favourable comparisons with Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds are entirely justified because, while it doesn't have quite the same kind of easy-to-relate-to cinematic story-line (no hero, villain, set-pieces, etc.), it is wonderfully well put together.

I commend it to the house.

There's definitely some bangin' metal in there.  8-)
I must have a little lie down before having another listen.
 :shock:

There is indeed the sound of some metal being banged (when everyone in the world is building....the machine).  :)

Finally got round to ordering my copy, I have no doubts that it will be a winner.

I'm loving this album. I think it is going to get my vote for album of the year unless something unexpected happens.
Everyone who owns and likes War Of The Worlds should buy this.
How can we make this happen?

I've listened to the album a few times on the link that Nellie posted above.  To me, this is special, exciting & different to almost every other album that I own.  The comparison with War of the Worlds is obvious.  The band have put together some excellent music which compliments Robert Ramsay's imagination which has created an interesting story.

I'm looking forward to getting a real copy next week.  Until then, I'm sure I'll listen to the podcast again.  Several times.

Maybe I should listen to it at some point. And the podcast.
