Well I haven't been around these parts as long as most of you people so I'm not sure what the 'watch the skies' thing refers to. Is this something they've tweeted/announced in the past when new material was imminent? What I do know is that the line was used in this 1991 track which I imagine the Chems are well familiar with.

I'm not entirely sure but I reckon it traces back to 2007 when We Are The Night was about to be announced.

Anyways. You guys are better be done by the end of this month! I want that as a birthday gift. I deserve it! And I want the Problem/Question track on that record.

Haha, awesome news!

^One album off. Tom used it teasingly multiple times in tweets and forum posts during the month or two before the announcement of Further in 2010. Some of us read so much into that phrase that we thought Escape Velocity (then untitled) or the whole next album was actually going to be called Watch The Skies. Which would be a pretty awesome name for a song, or band, or album. Dibs.

I'd still like to think Tom got it from the Transglobal Underground track though.
