    As someone that was a massive fan of them from the start travelling all over to see them this new stuff doesn't do it for me. Also lost a lot of respect for them when I listened to the podcast interview with their former bassist and supposed friend Andy Nicholson who kept his mouth shut for years regarding the way they treated him.

    Their gigs have become the ones that those people that aren't really into live music go to once a year, like Coldplay or Ed Sheeran at Wembley Stadium.
    isn't that the majority of people, though? It's also what happens when you become very commercially successful.

    The new single is probably the best they’ve released in years. It won’t be for everyone but it sounds like it could’ve come off an album from 15 years ago rather than their more recent stuff.

    It’s for the war child (2) album and a one off. I am not convinced we will ever see a new album from AM again, they just seem to be in creatively different places now.

    I like it. Has a sort of humbug sound to it which is my favourite record from them. 
    Do agree with poster above don’t think we will see another record though unfortunately.

    Today also happens to be the 20th anniversary of the release of their debut album... up there with the very best and still the fastest-selling British debut album of all time

    I doubt they wrote and then went in the studio to record just one song after a long break. There’s more to come.
