Howlaround is a bonus track at the end! Oh sweet! Actually re-read the mailout earlier and realised this bit: As well as exclusive artwork & booklet, the UK version of the CD will feature an exclusive extra track not available on the website.So Howlaround it is

All this "we're not made out of money" talk, reminds of *that* popworld interview back in the days when Simon Amstel was sure Modern Way was from the new albums, and they talked about how they re-released two singles. So maybe we shouldn't have been so surprised... I agree with you all btw, I don't have the money to get 2-3 more albums just so I will have all the songs (not to mention if they decided to put out even more tracks as b-sides). I was sure I would get the CD, but I really don't dig the track-listing. Problem is, I really want Kinda Girl You Are and the intro music I knew I'll never be able to spell properly. So yeah, like you I kinda feel cheated, or screwed by this whole situation. And what gets me the most is that most of the people who also feel the same are the hardcore fans, those who were the first to buy all 20 tracks before there were even rumours of a hardcopy and those they know will eventually won't be able to resist the temptation and would just have to get the CD for a one extra track. If you could buy the extra itunes tracks separately it'd be fine, but it doesn't look that way. Also, not everyone have iTunes. When band do different releases for different countries, at least you can buy it online and ship it. But in some countries you just don't have the option to buy things of iTunes. My only way to get City is to illegally download it.

I don't see what the fuss was over that girl from Glasgow who allegedly was "the first one to buy the album" this morning... When she didn't quite a few people have had it since Friday/Saturday :/ Anyway, i was hoping mine would turn up in the post this morning... Amazon preorder has failed me again Hopefully tomorrow it'll come, can't wait to hear the recorded version of Kinda Girl You Are and Howlaround edit - Just found the mFlow version, it doesn't have either Kinda Girl You Are or Howlaround >_< beta.mflow.com/album/kaiser-chiefs/the-future-is-medieval

I can't tell you how much I love listening to Howlaround. It gives me that excited feeling you get before the Kaiser's come on stage with them playing it as their entrance music. City scares me a bit, very ghosty, but it's what I imagine a psychedelic drugs binge inside a haunted mansion sounds like. (so pleased you can buy the songs seperately on iTunes too!) Love the physical album for the fact I can look through the booklet and get the 'real' words, and to just have it in my hands. Kinda Girl You Are is great too. All in all a happy Sophie!

Wait, so is City on the CD? Or is it an iTunes download only, as I was led to believe?

After all the whinging we have done, they must have heard! Ah, I thought so! Thanks for clearing that up cardi and sophiechiefs. I'm just glad we can get it by itself, and not have to download any songs we've already got.

CITY available on its own for iTunes download!!! Yes, thanks to everyone for clarifying that CITY can be purchased individually. N.B. I guess you all 'looked at/heard' the ancient 2009 'Lazy Sunday' cover ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqKCL919HJE

Got mine from Crash today, it's bloody lovely. The credits are cool too, aww'd a lot reading through them.
On repeat right now is Kinda Girl You Are and I found Howlaround. Sneaky old Chiefs. But this makes me happy. ;D
And there's the Teen Wolf on a bike.
There's an additional painting of a woman's head with a duck bill, might be Kinda Girl You Are's artwork maybe.

Man on Mars is so much better on record than it is live, and thrilled that Howlaround is on there. ;D

Which is quite strange for me and Chiefs songs, as its normally the other way around. Absolutely love Kinda Girl You Are, Im surprised I havent worn it out yet

And the Midweek charts have the CD release charting at no.8 Oh that's good! I have to say I am really loving the album now I've heard the songs a few times. Things Change and Heard It Break are the only two tracks I'm not that fond of, which out of the initial 20 is a really good success rate. This may turn out to be my favourite Chiefs album.

And there's the Teen Wolf on a bike. Just realised it's probably Howlaround FINALLY got mine today in the post, just reading the lyrics whilst it's importing. Kinda Girl You Are just keeps getting better and better ;D
