"Ravishing day! Woke up this morning with a new Frost song in my head called "System". Killer riff. I think it's an instrumental."

Today just got better!

Ravishing Day? My Frost* calendar says nothing about this...should the womenfolk be paricularly concerned?

Great news about the song idea, of course. :)

We should expect "mental" to be in there somewhere...

Oh yes. Hopefully that would prompt a new EP/promo or some kind of new release :D

Always an idea to have *something* on the merch desk... ;)

I think its a case of one day at a time rather than talk of releases. The bonus is Jem  even considerering doing a  new Frost* track. Its not too long ago Frost* was a bit of a swear word in the Godfrey household. So this announcemnt is a massive bonus. If more appear even better but im happy with the one for now! :lol:

As some of us have said already on the forum, 'Frost*' is only a word, and although I can understand Jem's apparent need to separate his other musical selves away from the prog scene and distance them from the 'F'*' word, I personally thought that Jem's musical vocabulary over the two Frost* studio releases seemed to be an AWFUL lot wider than most of the progressive rock genre anyway, enough in my humble opinion to be a 'catch all' for both Jem's rock, prog and electronic experiments.

Perhaps he has come to the conclusion that he can still carry on the Frost* brand and still satisfy his need for variety, but whatever the reason I'm reeeaaaally glad he's comfortable writing Frost* stuff again.

I just feel that we should let him do it at his own pace this time and not be constantly clamouring for more output -  a case in point being the issue of filming the Christmas AGM. It's just piling the pressure on again and I would rather see a trickle of Frost* stuff now and then, rather than risk a permanent shutdown of Frost*.

Although being a Jem fan it's hard not to shout as loudly as possible 'MORE'!!!!!!.  :D

My special steady hand camera action has been complimented by people at the IQ anniversary gig for filming all 20 mins of The last Human Gateway with barely a wobble, also Frost* at Manchester and even praise from Mr Simon Godfrey for some footage i took of Tinyfish. :lol:

Naturally. It's Frost*!  :D  This news added another smile to my day, which was already bright to begin with, I must say.  8-)

Yeah I'm really excited about the new track but all this talk of a release is a little premature. One step at a time, hopefully we'll hear the song in December :D
