ok, so it has been a while since there was last an album but in that time there have been special 'one-of' projects so...

I've been rather underwhelmed with the last few albums so i'm really rather hesitant about the next one, however, i would LOVE to see them play live again as i do believe they can still put on a good show and i think a lot of the newer songs sound so much better when they get a chance to breathe live...

so I assume that in your hypothetical dilemma, a new album wouldn't necessarily have a tour behind it?

I would choose a new album. the side projects are usually cool and interesting, and the live shows are often stunning.. but interested to hear what Jason has up his sleeve. he takes so long to make albums! I can't imagine what it must have been like to have Lazer Guided Melodies, Pure Phase and Ladies and Gentlemen in a short few years!!

The wait for the new album is now catching up with the longest period between two Spiritualized albums (Amazing Grace and Songs in A + E released nearly five years apart).

I'm interested to hear what the new album will sound like. I recently listened to some recordings of the live shows containing several of the new songs. It makes me wonder if they will all make the new album, and makes me ponder what stuff we haven't yet heard. I'm particularly interested to see what they do with 'A Song'. This song sounds absolutely ferocious on all versions I've heard and to my ears breaks some new ground for the band. I'm curious as to how they'll approach a studio version.

All in all, it just makes me long for a new album even more. My guess is we don't get it until at least early 2017, though.

Yes, we're probably looking at 2017, unless an announcement comes within the next couple of months, which is certainly possible.
