10" "The Zookeeper's Boy" single.  Bought it because, as far as I know, that's the only release that has the song "Safe as Houses".

I've been listening to And the Glass Handed Kites quite a bit this week, great album.
Maybe not as "instant clicking" as Frengers and No More Stories, I felt like AtGHK needs more spins to fully appreciate. Hard to pick any favorites from the 3-4 spins I've given it, but "White Lips Kissed" stood out from the first spin. The "I won't cry when the silver lining shows"-line gets me everytime. It's also easy to see why "The Zookeeper's Boy" is such a favorite for people.

Okay, it's official, this board owes me an external HD for all the awesome recommendations.  :lol

Comforting Sounds might be one of the most gloriously beautiful, epic songs ever. Think I know what band I'm listening to this week :D

Should probably check out the first two albums as well now. I really dig both "Saliva" and "Wheels Over Me" from Eggs Are Funny, so yeah.
As of now, I'd say No More Stories is my favorite, followed by AtGHK and Frengers. (the latter has some of the band's best songs, but also a few songs that aren't that special, AtGHK is probably more consistent)

I was lucky enough to see them live, and it was amazing. If the new songs were any indication of how good the album will be, it will totally be an AOTY contender for next year.

Overall it makes me a bit sad how criminally underrated/underappreciated this band is around here. It's hard for me to think of any other band on a hotter streak than Mew right now. Frengers, And the Glass Handed Kites and No More Stories... wow. Three spectacular albums. Personally, AtGHK is my favorite. It's progressive, epic and has all those shoegazy moments combined with beautiful dream pop melodies. No More Stories is a close second, and Frengers i would probably put as nr3 for now. It has some of their best songs, but there are a few songs that doesn't do AS much for me. About 50% of the album is brilliance, and the other half is mixed between decent-good-great.

I love Frengers and AtGHK but I've never listened to No More Stories. The former two are both fantastic though, Comforting Sounds has to be one of the best songs I've ever heard hnngg  :heart

Not sure what to think of the artwork, but this is easily one of my most anticipated albums of the year. Mew are on fire, and in my opinion they are even better than most of the DTF sweethearts (PT and Anathema for example) and so I can't wait for the new album. They played some new songs when I saw them (Satellites was one of them), and if the album as a whole is as good as those songs, we are in for a treat.

yeah I'm probably more excited for this over anything PT/SW and Anathema would release, I suppose largely due to the fact it's been 5 years.

also I guess this is the tracklist

01 Satellites
02 Witness
03 The Night Believer
04 Making Friends
05 Clinging to a Bad Dream
06 My Complications
07 Water Slides
08 Interview the Girls
09 Rows
10 Cross the River on Your Own

sad news: Bo Madsen, Mew's guitarist of 20 years, has left the band. I just wish he had at least stayed with them until after their upcoming tour.

https://www.mewx.info/bo-madsen-leaves-mew/

Bad news, guys. There had been rumours lately, but now we have a statement from Mew:

“After 20 years playing together in Mew, the band and Bo Madsen have decided to part ways for the time being. At present the rest of us will continue with Mew. We are happy to tell you that guitarist Mads Wegner will be joining us on our upcoming shows, and we look forward to seeing you all out there.

Thank you for your understanding and support.
–Jonas, Johan and Silas.”

saw them last night Minneapolis. 9-years to the day (10/5/06) I 1st saw them at The Fine Line

Incredible show.

here's my review
https://allmediareviews.blogspot.com/2015/10/mew-10515-at-triple-rock-social-club.html

Definitely DO NOT MISS THEM if you have the chance to see them live.

I guess Kimbra is supposed to be at the show in NYC.

Nice! I will catch them in 20 days when they return to Europe. Saw them not too long ago (last year), but there are some setlist changes and I'm familiar with the +- songs now, which weren't released at the time, so it might be even better now.

the +- songs seems to be even better live (like Rows namely), so you may notice that.

Btw, Kimbra did join them on stage the other night:

Fucking Hell.  I honestly thought with Bo leaving we may never see another Mew album, and if we did I expected the normal 5 year cycle!  To get a new album so soon is amazing news.

yeah, this caught a lot of us offguard, in a good way.

Mads Wegner, whose been their touring guitarist, played on some of this album.

Bo Madsen I guess has an upcoming solo record as well.

I'm hoping Bo will return in a few years the same way Johan did.

I do find Mew pretty amazing in their consistency (from Frengers onwards) and that makes it's really, really hard to rank their albums.  'No More Stories' is probably the weakest (Although still great).  'Frengers' perhaps next mainly because Symmetry drops it down.  '+ -' in second place although it's pretty much perfect but 'Glass Handed Kites' is actually perfect therefore in first place.
