Happened to find this because I'm subbed to Jonesy's Jukebox.
So I received my autographed hand written lyrics page in the mail today. It's for 'Broken' and pleases me to no end. Should I post picture here? I wasn't sure if lyrics would need spoiler tag. :'D

Received my shipping notice from Pledge about my signed vinyl!
The albums now up on Spotify, it's pretty good. I might pick this up on payday.

Not had a chance to sit and listen to the new album yet.
Tuesday will be my chance.
Tickets are in the bag for cardiff, always enjoy his shows.
I like it, but... his vocal delivery, patterns, and overall tone are unchanged from the last two or three albums. It's like he sings every song the same way now just with different lyrics and music in the background. There's not much variation. I'm a big fan of his catalog, but I just find myself becoming more and more bored with each new album.
Deliberately so. Hence the similar subtitle.
i hear a few similar motifs on the new album from the previous one, but nothing that makes me feel like he didn't make a new album. trent repeats motifs all the time and people think it's cool how it connects his work...why can't gary do the same?
i listened to Savage this morning and i thoroughly enjoyed it. the guitar tone isn't quite as full as Splinter, which is about my only complaint. as an album, i feel like it flowed a bit better than Splinter, but there weren't as many songs that i absolutely loved. overall, a solid album, and it fits nicely with its predecessor as a suite.
I'm really looking fwd to seeing Numan in November

I'm really loving this record I am glad he is finding success with it.
I've been a fan of Numan since '95. Cool to see him making music he loves and is great. Savage and Pure are my favorite late era Numan albums.

It seems Savage got No. 1 on at least one chart!
2nd in the UK charts

Excellent piece. Particularly love the mention of recording with Robert Palmer at Compass Point in Nassau for Clues (one of my favourite LPs by anyone, ever) and its groundbreaking use of the early EDP Spider sequencer... here's a dude demonstrating it, playing around with a similar sequence to the one driving that album's classic "Johnny and Mary" bassline:
Kind of mindblowing to think that NONE of the sounds on The Pleasure Principle were sequenced; all of it was played by hand. Even Telekon just had rudimentary drum machine programming, and only with Dance did he really get into melodic sequencing (just thinking of the trippy Roland Jupiter-4 arpeggio pattern on "Cry, the Clock Said" makes my hair stand on end).

Does anyone have Cold and If I said in lossless? Found some MP3s on the net but want to get them in FLAC as well. Would appreciate a PM
i got my copy of savage cd in the mail a few days ago. i really like this album and think it is better than splinter, and i loved splinter
Having heard both versions of Bed of Thorns today, I think the demo version is at least 10 times better than the album version. The demo, for me, is one of the best I've heard from him in years.
Is there a disk with demos like he had with splinter?
No not that I know of. I just meant the version from Ghost in the Shell. It's on youtube it was released a few months prior to the album. The album version has too much going on by comparison IMO.
