It's a good fyi anyway. Anyone who hasn't heard that mix should enjoy it right away!
― Spencer Chow, Tuesday, 23 June 2009 20:55 (fifteen years ago) link
no, telling people an eight-year-old set that you could probably still download on BiS until last week came out on a bootleg CD a year ago is not very good ify. SB him Granny Dainger!

Wow wait - since I left you was 10 years ago? Omg I'm old.

Listened to the album all the way through twice on a 600 mile roadtrip to Devon this weekend, after not touching it in probably three years. Still completely awesome, although likely helped by the glorious sun and rolling hills/lanes/cliffs as scenery. I'd also forgotten just how effortless it sounds and how well it flows from start to finish.

There's a rumor that Ariel Pink recently recorded vocals for the new album.

― just sayin, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 07:24 (fourteen years ago) link
the Avalanches' official forum admin posted "i hear ariel pink is recording some guest vocals for it and once those are done, the album will be finished (!)."
Which is the closest thing to an update in a while. They also changed their MySpace status from "...are clearing samples" to "since we left you." I like the fact that a band can make their MySpace status updates almost an event by doing nothing else (and only changing them once every 14 months or so).
― rope (lloydwabbitt), Wednesday, 9 June 2010 07:42 (fourteen years ago) link
the 'are clearing samples' update happened over a year ago

I was saying that the 'are clearing samples' update happened over a year ago. Apparently I somehow completely and totally failed to communicate this fact.

― Tori, I must seem greatly intriguing (Stevie D), Wednesday, 9 June 2010 11:43 (fourteen years ago) link
Low expectation = possibility of being impressed!
(The mixes that have surfaced over the years have been quality, though, so I'm not too worried.)
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 11:44 (fourteen years ago) link
Wish they'd just put out the "downbeat journey" album that the lable nixed three or four years ago, would have been right on the zeitgeist six months ago and they* could have carried on clearing samples for the "next" one
*though spurious chatter has "them" down to one dude now

I distinctly remember reading an interview with one of the Avalanches about the time Since I Left You came out that went something like this:
INTERVIEWER: Where do you see yourself in ten years?AVALANCHES DUDE: Putting the finishing touches on our second album.
