Listening to Zane Lowe and going into a break he said, "We are going to get something really special for the Ten Club. There's no doubt about that!"

Kinda nutty how close it is to "Destination 24" by Wellwater Conspiracy, though!

Is this the first PJ album that Brendan O'Brien has had no part in at any stage, including reissues?

From all of the excitement jism?
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

I've bumped my score from a 4 to a 5. I actually can't believe how much I'm liking this.

Good chat - Ed is pretty relaxed and open on this. He’s made sure everyone has ticked ocean and wave on their interview Bingo cards in both this and the Zane one :)
While a Western guitar motif lost on the swings drum bass fusion, get your own thoughts into the subconscious often forgotten. "Pendulum" is a sweeping soul from the ballast.

It is crazy how with each listen it just seems to get better and better. Really loving it too.

I assume this saying ‘the new album is really special for the Ten Club’ right?
Or did you get the impression they meant something else?

He specifically said referring to the show that they had something very special for the 10c. No idea what that means
