Pretty sure I wouldn't have guessed it was MLB if I heard it on the radio. And I did hear it on 6 Music this evening.

I love it. It has so much energy.
The rare Lanegan song you could dance to if you were so inclined.

It does remind me of the Screaming Trees, although I also hear somewhat of a early U2-new wave influence in the guitar melody.

Cannot wait to hear him sing this in concert.
I LOVE his Facebook Cover photo with the rain clouds and glitter gold lettering. Any idea who designed that and the rest of the web content?

Really loving the vocals, I mean at almost 50 he only continues to get better. Only thing about this song I'm not feeling is the damn fade out.

I cannot figure out how anyone is thinking this sounds like a Screaming Trees song - never heard them half this pop - they didn't have the balls. Don't know what crack water ya'll are drinking!  I fuckin' love it. |

Has anyone figured out the lyrics for Sad Lover yet?? Please correct if you know!
So far I've got...
I watch as my Sad Lover dreams
A wavin' swimming hurricane disaster
and I hold her very close, my love, when after
I watch as my sad lover dreams
I hate when the red sun goes down
And burns a lonely shadow in the pavement
And the breaking of my heart I can't evade it
I hate when that red sun goes down. Alright!
I hate when the red sun goes down
And burns a lonely shadow in the pavement
And the breaking of my heart I can't evade it
I hate when that red sun goes down
I pray for my Sad Lover's dream
A wavin' swimming Novocaine & laughter
And tears the only gift, my love went after
I pray for my Sad Lover's dream
I pray for my Sad Lover's dream, come on

Hello fellow 'Laneganians'! I personally love the new single. I'm rather surprised too because it goes in a completely different direction compared to Judgement Time and I Am the Wolf. Well, what can you say apart from the fact that Mark is always brilliant? :-) Good Kraftwerk/New Wave vibes to be heard there...I cannot wait to put my hands on the EP which I've ordered yesterday evening! I guess a new record also means a new tour and hopefully more dates in London soon...

I love it - but I have to say I'm with Silence. Very first listen I thought it could be a Trees song, late 80s style!

I think it could easily fit on Buzz Factory--I'm loving it, 29th can't come soon enough.

Best and coolest tune Ive heard in a long fookin while. Bring on the tour guys !! When I first heard it, it just took me back to a tune from the 80s (not necessarily a trees tune, but understandable) maybe a couple more listens it will come to me.  |

Btw - Steve Gullick has made not just one, but two videos for this current project  (although the surpise for this has probably just been ruined by the fact that the promo CDs have already hit ebay with a release date of December 22 and a lovely blue cover) EDIT: It's Floor Of the Ocean. Promo only 1 track, so it's unclear yet if this is a physical thing (maybe to tie in with the impending remix thingy) or a 1-track digital-only effort. |

www.messandnoise.com/news/4679323Another remix, this time Mikey Young's take on Sad Lover - nicely in keeping with Phantom Radio's vibe, but it's weird that yet another remix arrives without anyone mentioning that they're from another upcoming record :/

Speaking of remixes.... I just noticed that there is a pre-order up on Amazon for MLB - A Thousand Miles Of Midnight - Phantom Radio Remixes [Vinyl]

If these are phantom radio remixes then where are all these sad lover remixes going to wind up? Lanegan sure does seem to spoil us with lots of releases lately! |

My guess based on, um, stuff is that as Mikey is Heavenly's sort of go-to person for this sort of thing then it'll be his version of Sad Lover on the record, with Josh doing something else.
It's supposedly Phantom Radio & No Bells On Sunday in their entirety, so I'm wondering if it's also going to be a double...

I fuckin' love it.
