oyyy pooter,

you know how you showed us that cd deal? wellllll, if you buy a ticket to their live show off moshtix, you are able to preorder the signed copy of the new album with it. From what i read it indicates that you can have the album sent to you before the release date, as you can get it sent express post.

check it out for yourself

::laughs::

If only I lived in Australia, this would be a great deal.

I'll go ahead and wait until their album is released in stores to pick up my copy. And hopefully they'll play a few shows in the States...

well they seem to tour overseas more than their home :P

FYI - there are a -bunch- of live Infusion sets on here:

http://www.mixwalla....dex-breaks.html

yea i noticed that when i was scanning it yesterday. I shall get cracking onto those once my internet tops up =)

have you got any of them yet? whats the quality like?

The quality isn't bad--I've downloaded a few and it's good for a live set, indeed.

I do wish the vocalist would stop talking during the sets, though. In fact, I wish he wouldn't sing. In fact, can we just get rid of him?

when i saw infusion the vocalist only really talked at the start. and he was making fun of a crappy band that were playing at the same time...i didn't mind him too much

HA! Cool--I'm sure if I were there in the moment I wouldn't mind him talking at all, but at least in the recordings I'm taken out of whatever moment I'm in listening to it.

yea i know what you mean. i listened to a live recording of the crystal method at BDO the other day and every now and then they are shouting to the crowd....and since the music is so loud u can even understand what they are saying so its kind of pointless.

it just takes u away from the music i recon, you have to find your groove again

tickets to their gig at oxford art factory + autographed CD in the mail.

yay!

Nice!

I really should order my own copy of the album. When is the show? You must review for us!!

the show is on the 10th of July. Which is sweet as i had planned a month ago to go to sydney during that weekend due to turning 18. But infusion must have known that and decided to put on a performance for me hahaha.

a review?? of course, just don't expect a review like whirly did for coachella :P

just found album an album preview.

http://www.inthemix....w_Album_Preview

some of it i like, some of it im not really sure if i like the new direction. However as experience has shown, Infusion's live sets are usually pretty different to the albums they release.

guess i'll just have to wait till i get the album to make an educated decision.

ok!!! so i just got back from my sydney trip.

Bused it up with 3 friends and my brother. We rocked up to Oxford Art Factory quite early and managed to see the opening act. I was surprisingly impressed by them (however i've forgotten their name). Quite an energetic band, the singer looked wired off his head haha.

I knew i was in for a good night when the DJ's were playing tracks such as "let forever be" and "Litzomania" (alex metric mix).

anyway after the opening act had finished the club had an influx of people rush in. Infusion had a very similar intro to what the chemies had in their WATN tour. Obviously they planned quite a few of the new tracks, however they also chucked in classics such as natural, betterworld etc. Midway through the set they threw in a couple really decent covers (unfortunately i didn't catch the names of the songs) I was dissapointed when they didn't play always there though :(

The gig had so much energy in both the audience and the band. It seemed to just work perfectly. I was very surprised that i went into the gig disliking "2 Player Game", however the live version of it provided a new appreciation for it. After witnessing infusion perform at big day out and Oxford Art Factory, i highly recommend everyone to see them if they get the opportunity.

Anyway im quite dead as ive only had 2 hours sleep. But tell me what you guys think of the new album, i quite like it =)

Awesome!! Glad the show was such a great time--thanks for the review, Jittem.

I really, really hope they make their way over here to the States, specifically to San Francisco. My friend and I got into them after listening to Six Feet above Yesterday, and hearing their live sets makes me want to get out there and dance. ;-)

Looking forward to giving the new album a listen in full.

got onto the new album yet? :P

im quite liking the version of legacy off their essential mix. too bad they don't play it live anymore :(
