New Radiators album

[RoddyRuddy]

Good news and well done to all.

The album is, apart from a few of the mixes, complete now. The funding was mainly retrospective, as we paid for the recordings ourselves in the first instance. We are currently looking at our options, but there is no doubt the album will come out as planned, most likely early next year. It sounds fantastic by the way!

Thanks to everyone who responded with their support.

Glad to hear it, and look forward to hearing it.
So I guess those offers of funding can't be taken up as the total hasn't been reached? Seems a shame, in a way, as I suspect many of those offering would be willing to contribute anyway. But I guess that's the way the system works...

Looking forward to it!

Will there be any chance of a few shows when the album comes out? I'd love to see The Rads live...

So there must be still a chance to support the project "retrospectively"!?
Sorry for not having noticed until today and thus having missed the "Fund it"-deadline, but I'd love to support the project nevertheless. Is there any bank account or Paypal address for latecomers like me to show their contribution, too?
Best wishes and good luck,
Uwe

No such mechanism exists at the moment.

So one will have to wait for the finished product to pay for it, as always...
Thanks for the response anyway!
All the best,
Uwe

The news has been added to the Medusa frontpage. Here is more detailed info:

The Radiators from Space look forward to their first ever North American album release in October 2011 when their 2007 modern classic Trouble Pilgrim will be released by Shite 'n' Onions. The artwork for the CD will be the so-called "banned" James Dean/Ronald Reagan sleeve, taken from "The Dark, Dark Hours", an American TV drama the actors both appeared in in the early 1950s, in which Dean played a beatnik and Reagan a doctor. In addition, the USA will see a very limited edition (100 copies) coloured vinyl-edition of Trouble Pilgrim, the only vinyl release the album has ever had. For reasons of space and sound quality, the LP version drops two of Trouble Pilgrim's 14 tracks. The new artwork brings to three the total number of distinct packages in which the album has so far been released.

Meanwhile, the band has completed its much anticipated new album Sound City Beat, a tribute album to the Irish rock, blues and beat groups of the 1960s, which contains cover versions of 18 seminal Irish rock classics, influential songs written and originally recorded long before U2, the Pogues or even the Radiators themselves came on the scene. The new album, recorded in Dublin this past summer, will be released in 2012.

Congrats, The Radiators!

Best news all week! Couldn't be happier that this will be available on vinyl. I'll be checking daily for pre-order info.

Looking for the "Like" button... This is the best news in a long time. Now, if only they'd go on tour... Anywhere, with enough notice, would be fine with me.
