It's all gone a bit quiet on the review front. Once the embargo was lifted and the Uncut/Mojo reviews dropped, I figured there'd be a load of them but not much joy as yet...

Ms. Simmons also tweeted at one point that after 4 plays she was upgrading her one word review of the album from "great" to "magnificent". I don't know whether that upgrade post dates the writing of her review in Mojo or not.

Not convinced there is an edit after "Tame" because one can hear a very sharp intake of breath before the continuation but if there is one at that point it seems to me to be very well done. Whatever, I'm getting anal again when no need- this is a superb piece of art as delivered: embrace.

Ah yes, that article...not at all sure he's right about that "edit" at 2.06 as the very slight background distortion occurs in the middle of the word "murder" from what I can make out. An edit or splice would surely occur just before or after a word, not inbetween. I reckon it's a very minor glitch ...

It's a subtle detail but I just love the bass at the start of and during the track. Sets the tone and immediately takes the emphasis away from the synth mode of yesteryear.

Agree re the production by the way, very classy. The. Track itself is in the spirit of Nevermind- no bad thing being the best track on PP in my book.

Think the volume on this album is slightly lower than PP too.

Not that I need it as this is perfect but any idea when/where the remix is available?

Think I'm ready my lord after that...

Second thoughts, I'll hang around for the full album. That was gorgeous and mysterious and menacing all rolled into one. Great way to open the album.

Oops- didn't see Benny and Jarkko's posts above before adding my own. Anyway, think Paddy Power can suspend betting now - tomorrow surely....

My guess is the 21st, being his birthday and the date hat the album release date is to be officially announced apparently, is a more appropriate date to reveal the title track to the world at large. We shall see...

In the meantime taking extra care to look left AND right before crossing the road. Would be a real shame to miss it at this late stage...

Getting a sinking feeling re today but hope springs eternal...

Anyone heard the title track yet? NOBS Radio tweeted it would be out today but I don't see any sign as yet...

Excellent news, much appreciated

Anybody know anything about this? NOBS Radio (@nobsradio1) tweeted the following on the 13th Sept. "Leonard Cohen – YOU WANT IT DARKER Release date: September 19th Welcome to the inaugural post… instagram.com/p/BKMS4j4Dpqj/" Suggests the title track may be out on Monday? Anyway of clarifying this Ja...
