Jeepers!

Four new songs! Nine in total.

Amazing. Can't wait to hear them. Surely we can expect another Near Meth Experience gig in the next month or so?

Although I'll predict now two or three of the total number won't get played and will remain as titles only, Far Parade style, on the website for the next ten years. Five song titles were listed last year, but only three were played.

If they actually performed a gig with even five or six of these new songs, that would be amazing. I'd travel for that, if the new tracks are anywhere near as good as Show Me etc.

Really hope they play at least one of these on the tour!

I'm so excited!!!!!!!

And lyrics, we need lyrics on the site, pretty please!

I like the idea of turning up to Sisters gigs on horseback!

Isn't it more fun when we guess them & get them terribly wrong

Does this herald more setlist squabbles? Can we "spoilerise" them this time for any elderly like myself who delight in ant....... icipation.

Is that a thing in Pudsey? Genuine question, there's parts of Bradford (and not just the Home Of The Horselord countryside bits) where horseback is the number one mode of transport. And fair enough to it, never mind Sisters gigs, turning up anywhere on horseback is the preferred method

Enough frivolity for now, time to go suffer some more at the hands of local rivals.

Exciting! Even more so if we get to hear them.

Should this not be in the Nephilim forum?!

Hey, no lobbing flour at my horse ya buggers!

I'm pretty sure most of Pudsey lurks under a LS postcode thankfully.

OK, this sounds like the tour's gonna be fun. Roll on March!

Sure, for a while, but when all we can come up with from one song after 6 months is 'shed your skin' we need a bit more of a hint!

That indicated the lyrics are already on the website

All instrumentals except 'etc' which Dylan sings

If The Neph's actually rode horses they'd save themselves a fortune in Be-Ro purchases. Just a thought, Carl. No charge.

As for the lyrics, why not start the guessing now and save Von the job?

I'd try meself but am buggered if I can think of anything to rhyme with Caligula.

grand effort, but requiring an overtly posh home-counties pronunciation of Caligula to make it work. Not sure that's in Von's repertoire! Atrioventricular is a cool word mind, an opportunity missed not to have shoehorned it into the lyrics for Heartland

Oh my word this is looking far too exciting.... really hope I can make it back to Europe this year....
Of course if I can't I will just buy the album

So much excitement, and no LP.

It's now 30 years since the last one. Sad.
