All I have is this quote from Steve at Wayside
 
We are NOT getting the Sea Nymphs, because the copies they have are not 'perfect' and while people won't complain to the ALPHABET BUSINESS CONCERN directly, out of fear of retribution, they would complain to me.
 
I'll probably order direct from ABC as I'm less hung up about those kinds of things as long as I know about them beforehand and they don't affect the CD.

The latest Cardiac delivery has landed at Wayside for those interested it includes :-
 
Mr & Mrs Smith and Mr Drake - Mr & Mrs Smith and Mr Drake
Spratley Japs - Pony
 
Apparently The Sea Nyph's discs are damaged so Steve won't stock them but they can still be ordered direct.

 HUGE cardiac fan here since 1986.

Some of you may or may not be aware of this but: from a reliable source from within the band (Kavus Torabi) I am happy to inform you all that all Cardiacs CD’s are reprinted and the shop on Cardiacs.com will be opened soon. Within the next month or so.

There are also plans to reprint all the side-projects, like Seanymphs and Spratleys Japs, but not straight away.

The newly opened shop will be run by Sharon Fortnam, who actually sings in a wonderful band herself: The North Sea Radio Orchestra. Check out their latest album: I a moon. A bit Seanymphs-ish.

That's the same for me;......at first I found them interesting but after a while they just became a bit  annoying.
I've tried again but alas...no luck.

I tried to buy a copy of Sing To God not too long ago only to find it out of print.  Downloaded it off of youtube.  I'm not one for punk, but I like it.  Fiery God Hand got me hooked.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Good call. Yes an interesting band. But I tire of listening to them after a while.  I have no stamina for them. I very much enjoy them in small doses.

Ah, well work has definitely begun on the new album - that's been confirmed by his record label and in the interview part of the radio session I linked to. For some reason I assumed Lawrence was a single from said album.

Either way, the song's out there and the album's on its way!

You can also hear a live radio session version along with a few other tracks (including a sublime rendition of an old Mr and Mrs Smith & Mr Drake song) here:

I quite like the song. I loved his last album, so finally hearing news of a new one makes me excited, especially after hearing the song.
