Artist News Releases
Wolf to release two albums instead of one
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 20 February 2009
Patrick Wolf’s two-disc album ‘Battle’ will now be released as two discs. As in, two separate albums. The first, ‘The Bachelor’, will be released on 1 Jun, while the second, ‘The Conqueror’, will follow at a later date.
Apparently the decision to split the release has come about “so as not to overload people with too much information at one time”. ‘Battle’ will now be released in its complete form in 2010.
I’m not sure what this means to all the people who invested in the album (in its original form) through bandstocks.com, in return for a cut of the profits.
Presumably it means that the fans who have collectively put £42,750 into the project can expect kickbacks from three releases, rather than one now.
The tracklist for ‘The Bachelor’ is as follows:
Kriegsspiel
Hard Times
Oblivion
The Bachelor
Damaris
Thickets
Count Of Casualty
Who Will?
9. Vulture
Blackdown
The Sun Is Often Out
Theseus
Battle
The Messenger
