Re: Darc is not on the album ;(
Trust the guys' taste in music. It's their album and they want it to be the best album possible. If they chose not to include Darc the rest of the album must be even better!

Subjectivity is arguable, I know, but I have faith they know what they're doing and that we'll see Darc before too long. They know we want it.

Re: Darc is not on the album ;(
well if you read the interviews about how the album comes about it sounds like they changed the tracklisting right up to the last minute... its not easy compiling an album that flows with over 180 trackss to choose from i guess...

Darc probably didnt fit the 'mood'

whatever is on the album is what 'should' be on the album... these guys have been making music longer than most of us have been listening to it, so lets just leave it to them until it comes around....

then we can complain like some people feel the need to...

i think it's human nature to complain about something... like actually searching for something to complain about just for the heck of it

Re: Darc is not on the album ;(
I think some people were just expressing their dissapointment that this great track was not on the album. It's not "complaining" in my view but whatever.

Also I find the argument that "they've been making music for so long and know what's best" a bit silly really. I mean, obviously it's their music and they can do whatever the hell they want with it, but that doesn't mean it's neccesarily "best". How do you know that some other person compiling tracks wouldn't have resulted in a better album? (I'm just pointing out a hypothetical situation, obviously I haven't heard the album and I'm pretty sure it's gonna be great even without Darc on it). Aren't we all free to form our own opinion?

Re: Darc is not on the album ;(
its not a case of not being able to voice opinions, of course its good to express feelings about things, but there must be a reason why a track is not on an album

I, personally, was offering up the fact that its Underworld's decision what goes on the album, even if we as fans feel disappointed with missing tracks or the tracks that do appear - it is their work - and they have been working hard on on...

there are tracks on previous albums i don't particulary like, and there are probably tracks i'd have preferred on the albums, but its not our choice... the album has to be Underworld's.

We can express our thoughts, but we're discussing an album that no one has heard or seen, and we're already appearing to be moaning about it.... it kinda depresses me that's all...

Re: Darc is not on the album ;(
arguing about minutia is what fan sites are all about. no sense telling someone what they can and can't argue about.

i'd like to see Darc on the album. i'd like to just get a studio recording anywhere.

primarily what this confirms for me is, Underworld are in a new peak zone right now. the recent material is incredible and i'm more excited for this album than i have been for any other UW release. rick and karl are operating at the peak of their abilities right now and we should all embrace these days while they last.

I feel the same way. Although at the same time I don't wanna get my hopes up too high.

Darc on the album would've been great because I think it shares a bit of similarity with All These Things, and then I mean the melodic vocals by Karl and a repitive, driving synthsound.

In the end, I can be happy with the live recording of the track, which is in decent quality and free to download for everyone. I mean, free music!
