oh yeah, i def listened to it on heaphones - in fact i think i listened to it at 20,000 feet on a plane to the bahamas once hehe. dont get me wrong, i still rate them and i do think theyre fantastic, but it just hasnt had the 'legs' some other albums have had - its def considered a classic modern album, but i dont think it stands up in the way say manitobas up in flames album has. well for me anyway ;)

the artwork is nice but it reminds me a little of Test video -beach, weird people, cloudy sky, sea, very pretty girl... she even has a shirt on with "r�yksopp" on it! however, tha artwork makes the whole thing worth buying on vinyl ;-)
i still like melody AM by the way. i don't listen to it too much but still quite a lot of times.
and the release date for the new r�yksopp one is cool, 27th, that is my first day in the UK this summer!
love is all.

Wow, what a great album! :D
It's softer than Melody AM, with an 80s touch.
At least that's what I think.
Another thing I've noticed is that most of their new songs have lyrics.
About Only This Moment, yeap, IT HAS to be the first single, no doubt!
Seems to me that the one singing What Else is There? isn't a native english speaker. What do you think?
Great job Royksopp! :)

Before any comment,
I downloaded, as usual, the mp3s as previews. I don't think this is illegal if You buy the album when it's out... I just can't resist to wait, but I like original hi-quality copies with their artworks to fill my collection... ;)
So,
I'm quite disappointed of this album... Royksopp of Melody AM are dead, this is another band!
Songs are fine, great quality, but the entire album is really boring :(, and completely different from MelodyAM...
