I bet you've already heard the entire album, Rich

That'd be impressive considering it's not been recorded yet.

I have heard Nightingale though.

A snippet is up on their FB page. It’s only about 10 seconds, but it sounds pretty tasty.

It is? Where?

[Max Kuehnau]

What he means might be that snippet of music that underlines Peter Jones' announcement in a recent clip (on FB) where he talks about a competition for fans to submit the possible single art for Nightingale. What you hear there is not connected to any recent Haken piece (that I know of)

Isn't that from Messiah Complex?

[Max Kuehnau]

might be, not sure

Did they also record Prosthetic before the rest of Virus?

I'd say so, because you can actually hear the keyboards on that one

Not to my knowledge.

Sorry…I’m at work. It didn’t sound immediately familiar, and it was playing over an image of some artwork that said “Nightingale” so I put 2 and 2 together and I was apparently mistaken. Sorry for the false alarm.

Oh you mean the Instagram stories thing that displays a few fan's entries? I think that had clips from 1985 and Carousel in it.

That was it! And Instagram “stories” are now featured on Facebook…thus adding to the confusion.

Sp, if Nightingale drops in April-ish, when should expect the full album to release?

Well, they have tours coming up, so I wouldn't expect the album to be completed until later in the year.

Hopefully they can record/release that live album before

There’s some very impressive entries in the Nightingale competition and loads of entries that I’d be absolutely horrified if Haken chose, so I’m looking forward to seeing the results.

On another note, surely it can’t be much longer until the rescheduled tour dates are announced? It’s been almost 3 months since they postponed the European tour.

Yeah there are some very artistic and talented people out there. A couple of the entries seems to keep with the Vector/Virus theme too. I hope they go for another art direction this time though.

I have no idea how to embed instagram posts but I love this one, I’d be really happy if it won.

That's definitely the best one I've seen so far. One of the comments says it's even better and all the other official Haken album covers

What I was wondering, though, is if the band would want to change their font/logo this time around, since they change it regularly and they already wrapped the Vector/Virus theme. We've had Aquarius and Visions with the same font, then The Mountain and Restoration with another, Affinity was different from all the others; and then Vector and Virus had the same one. Time for a new one?

Yeah I thought that too, just from seeing fans using all the different fonts in their submissions.

Listened to Vector and Virus, and plan in to do the rest of the studio releases backwards with L1VE at the end. Was thinking of trying to chuck the L+1 tracks into the main set if I can work out a good flow. Anyone got any ideas?

Don't do it

L+1VE was recorded 1 year before. They're separated on the L-1VE release as well, with the first DVD holding the Amsterdam set (can you spot me in the audience?) and the second having the PPUSA one.

And can you spot me in that PPUSA one?

And can you spot me in that PPUSA one?

Based on the fact I don’t know what either of you look like, spotting you in the DVDs will be very tricky.

I'm actually very easy at one point. During Crystallised, in the "I hold your hand, but you let go" section I'm the first one Ross comes over to.

The winner of the cover art contest was announced today. Maybe the single drops this Friday?

[Deadeye21]

I feel like they”d have said “Friday” instead of soon though. Here’s hoping though.

[ariich]

Nah it won't be quite that quick. I imagine they'll announce it slightly before release.

The artwork that won was pretty cool!

[nobloodyname]

Ooh, that is indeed good. Would have made a cracking album cover.
