The Great Distraction has arrived.
For the tangible fetishists amongst you, there are a host of options to choose from. You could purchase a simple compact disc – all the music is on it. Or you could helve further down the mudslide and bunt off a 180g gatefold double LP – JUICY. Or, if you’re that far down the bunny-tunnel why not gan the whole pig and buy the limited edition red and blue double vinyl girth box. Somebody is saying all the other fetishists just did FYI. It’s really up to you. You could buy them all and then discard the ones you don’t like. the permutations are terrifying.
If you’re anything like me then this post apocalyptic presentation of a jeffer on a jetski doing slo-mo half-cab-gondola-pumps before summoning Slipknot’s EDM nephews on a tug-boat will be right up your alley. Add to that the fact that its the official video for ‘Mobilise‘ and it is brown-trousers time.
Thanks go to director Alexander Darby and creative visionary Russ ‘Benylin on the bus’ Crank.

The Great Distraction drops at the end of the month. The same number of days as spacetime dimensions in bosonic string theory. To mark that unlikeliest of coincidences here’s a new spacetime themed track for you – ‘Deeper in a Sky‘, starring our good friend Harkin as the unified mental process of over a trillion, trillion, trillion humans that have spread throughout the universe, survived to the end of time and is now watching the stars flicker out one by one, whilst pondering some of humanities most belligerent questions)
The Great Distraction drops in 41 days. An arc-cotangent irreducible number of sleeps. For those who can’t wait that long check out our new single ‘Mobilise‘ premiering over at XLR8R right now.

Our forthcoming long player The Great Distraction drops in only 70 days. You could get NASA to pay you $18,000 to lie in bed for the exact duration and then buy 630 copies on the day you re-emerged! However for those of you with day jobs and tangible responsibilities we suggest you absolutely don’t do that, and instead watch this new video for our Flaming Lips collaboration ‘Deflect the Light‘, as painstakingly assembled by our friend Stefano Bertelli at seenfilm – don’t mess with the rainbow children!
