Hello Travis-fans!

Managed to find this thread on page 7 :o
Any idea if and when there is going to be a new Travis-album? Somebody told me that Singles was the last we're ever going to hear from them, but I didn't want to believe that...

[Knight Of Cydonia]

yay! god bless your soul for bumping this thread :nice:

So many good memories when i check out this thread :blush:

and of corse not! they're working on a new album that will be released this year so weeeeeeeee :P

[linnea]

Again, Yay!!! That's great news :cool:

Thanks Ren :kiss:

btw, what's your favourite Travis album?

[Knight Of Cydonia]

It's so hard to tell but i think my fav is the first album , full of great songs :blush:

It's really hard to to pick just one cos i love most of their songs :stunned:

what's yours?

[linnea]

Just listening to The Man Who, although I guess I still prefer The Invisible Band :thinking:

They really don't seem to have anything except great songs, so you're right, it's hard to choose :cool:

I guess I don't even know all their work yet, only been a fan for a while
So is there an album earlier than The man who?

And btw do you know if it's true that they gave The Invisible Band -album its title because nobody recognized them eventhough they were popular after The Man Who?

sorry, too many questions! :happy2:

[Lydia]

ah!!!...Is great to find fans of Travis here!!!!!!!!!!....because I love them too!!!!!!...ah!!!!!...I just love them!!!! :guitarist: :heart:

Nah, I went to see them in Liverpool this year and they played a new song called Closer, which I assume is gonna be on the new album, I think it's due for release around March, I uploaded the new song a couple of pages back. :)

[linnea]

I really need to find that Good Feelings album..

lozm, I couldn't open that file for the new song, it said it's been deleted or something.. I guess it's been too long ago? Could you possibly upload it again?
And what is that Travis and Christmas thing?
(don't know much about Travis yet as you can probably see :P )

[Knight Of Cydonia]

haha they played a song with drunk santa in their last dvd :P

[linnea]

Good Feeling is an awesome album, one of my fav Travis tracks is U16 Girls from the Good Feeling album.

Here is the new song "Closer", not great quality, but it was recorded at the Isle of White festival in '05, hope you like it. :)

Travis are coming to norway this summer :)

[linnea]

^lucky you :)

Earlier in this week I was in a shop trying to decide whether to buy the Singles DVD, well I didn't but it's been bugging me since :/

I guess all their DVDs must be great, but any opinions which one would be the best choice to get first? Since I don't have any of their DVDs yet and probably can't get them all at the same time :worried:

[yellowy eyes]

oh, wish they'd come to Finland again. Didn't see them when they were here...

[yellowy eyes]

oh and the singles-dvd is awesome! tony boney-intro is my favourite :D

[lozm]

I love the singles DVD, the band commentary on Re-offender is hillarious. :lol:

[*Sarah*]

[linnea]

They've been to Finland?! :stunned: When, where was that? I really need to stay more up-to-date with things!

They must come baaaack

[lozm]

I'm so happy to find this be a complete thread!

I'm the only one in my friends who even know of Travis....well appart from 'Writing to Reach You' which of course they all love. I love Travis!
They're my 2nd favorite band next to coldplay, they're almost like a more ballady happier coldplay to me, though I wouldn't change coldplay for anything! I'm glad people out there love Travis as much as I.


ellesse

[yellowy eyes]

my 2nd or 3rd favourite band.. I have played it to my friends and one of my friends loves travis as much as I do :nice:

[yellowy eyes]

ah! I can't believe this! the Britney Spears- movie Crossroads in on tv now.. and tv is on, so I almost choked to my water when I heard Travis's Follow The Light! In that awful movie! :uhoh:

[bedofroses]

[Gitta Rensolo]

I like the invisible band pretty much...but 12 memories disappointed me..

[linnea]

Haven't heard any news about Travis lately.. but I really hope the new album will be released later this year

Invisible Band is my favourite, I think it's even better than The Man Who..although there are some great songs on 12 Memories too.. (especially Love Will Come Through:))

I haven't found the Good Feeling album anywhere, I'd love to hear it cos I've only heard the songs that were on the Singles collection.. should really order it from amazon..

Good Feeling is a good album :)

Travis has a lot of b-sides because they release 3/4 per single, and annoyly wiki doesn't list the b-sides :(

[ugadawg5]

these new recording sessions must be a govt secret because there is NO news about how the album is progressing, nor is there a release date. very frustrating.

[Kite]

I got some b-sides, but a lot of them I haven't a clue what single they be from.

But i'm getting the Sing cd 2 from amazon marketplace for £1.24 so 2 new b-sides for dave :D

Fran posted this on the Travis message board a couple of days ago:

Hullooooo... well, welly, well. All is well here. Apologies for silencio. We are nearly there mit the neu TRAVIS album. Ooooohhhhh just you wait. Heeheee...man, your frustrated messages are bringing a tear to my almost glass eye.
New Babies are amazing and inspiring. Our wee boy is nearly 5 months old. I haven't played him any Travis music yet. That could be seen as child abuse in some parts. Hahaaa... I have, however, been playing him guitar and singing made up songs that seem to be getting a good reaction. Cue an anomalous vocal gobbldigook 6th album ( the one after next). called Goo. Only your babies will get it though. Also been dancing with him to mostly Motown, Stevie, Diana, Jacksons blah.
Anyways, don't fret. We'll be with you soon.

It's nice that Fran mentioned album 6 in the post, I know he was only joking, but hopefully that means their not planning to quit after this album.:)

[ugadawg5]

From Wikipedia:

New Album
Travis are working with producers Nigel Godrich, Mike Hedges and Brian Eno on a new album, due for release early in 2007. KT Tunstall has been reported as providing backing vocals on a song, while on a visit to the studio to watch the band recording; actor Ben Stiller, a fan, contributed a cowbell. Andy MacDonald, the founder of Travis’ record label, Independiente, said of the album, one to be backed to the tune of 4 million pounds by a joint venture between Independiente and Patrick McKenna's Ingenious Group:

"Travis are very much a cornerstone artist for Independiente - having created some brilliant music since we first signed them, and having had hit records in pretty much every corner of the world. Their new album is close to completion and is shaping up to match, and arguably better, their very best work.”


so damn: 2007?! - crap!
so good: hell yeah, best ever...

[General Smut]

Cool! cant wait i think Travis are great!

[VERVE]

however, The Man Who is a good album, The Invisible Band is good too, maybe even better, 12 Memories is shit...haven't heard The Good Feeling

The Man Who 7.1
The Invisible Band 7.3
12 Memories 3.9

don't know what to expect actually

[Lera]

People've been waiting for a long time. I like Travis, they're pretty positive sometimes for a change. I can't call myself a crazy fan though.

[square_1]

That's sooooo cool! Can't wait to listen to the album. And Kt recording with them is hilarious!

[bedofroses]

wow didnt know they are working with nigel godrich

[Ondes Martenot]

wow didnt know they are working with nigel godrich

their 2 better albums come from "Godrich-era" ;)

[bedofroses]

haha really, i dont know that information lol oopsie *hides*
how do you know all this nik ? you are like an encyclopedia :laugh4:

[Ondes Martenot]

i read an article about Nigel in wikipedia some weeks ago :P

[bedofroses]

i see, still you know so much about radiohead in general :wink2:

[ugadawg5]

everything godrich touches turns to gold, macca, radiohead, beck, travis, etc... he should latch on with coldplay - what a match that would be...

[square_1]

The best match ever!

[REManic]

It's glad tidings for sooth...
I hate when the bands I like stop making records...It's good to know they will be back in harness,and I love Travis.

Their last album was a bit disappointing, though.;)

[REManic]

That one...what's its name??I forgot...oh, yeah, 12 memories!I like the singles but I prefer The man who and The invisible band.

They were way better!;)

[REManic]

They were way better!;)



You bet your bottom dollar!

[lozm]

I dunno why everyone hates 12 Memories so much, I mean sure it's not thier best, but it still has some great tunes on it. Re-offender is my favourite ever Travis song, I also love Quicksand, Happy To Hang Around, Peace The Fuck Out. Infact the only songs I don't like from 12 Memories are, Paperclips, which is my least favourite Travis song and How Many Hearts.

[RadioMad]

So not the most realible of information sources.

Nah, but this is:


Hullooooo... well, welly, well. All is well here. Apologies for silencio. We are nearly there mit the neu TRAVIS album. Ooooohhhhh just you wait. Heeheee...man, your frustrated messages are bringing a tear to my almost glass eye.
New Babies are amazing and inspiring. Our wee boy is nearly 5 months old. I haven't played him any Travis music yet. That could be seen as child abuse in some parts. Hahaaa... I have, however, been playing him guitar and singing made up songs that seem to be getting a good reaction. Cue an anomalous vocal gobbldigook 6th album ( the one after next). called Goo. Only your babies will get it though. Also been dancing with him to mostly Motown, Stevie, Diana, Jacksons blah.
Anyways, don't fret. We'll be with you soon.
xfx

[REManic]

I don't hate 12 memories, actually I only know the singles from the record and I like them very much, especially The beautiful Occupation.

[Knight Of Cydonia]

haha isnt Fran one of te nicest guys ever? :P

[lozm]

haha isnt Fran one of te nicest guys ever? :P


So true, I think it's cool that all the guys from Travis post on the message board. Fran more than, Dougie, Neil and Andy though.

[square_1]

I was listening to "The Invisible band" and I remeber how great this album, hope the new album' amazing!

[brazzo]

I don't hate 12 memories, actually I only know the singles from the record and I like them very much, especially The beautiful Occupation.

well..."The Singles" DVD was amazing...:cool:

[kekita]

yeah i like that one- jeez! i have the CD but i'm afraid i haven't listened to it at all lately must go back because i don't remember the other songs !(embarrassed)

[Sienna]

"actor Ben Stiller, a fan, contributed a cowbell" LMAO. :laugh3: Wow. Quite the contribution, eh?
I cannot wait til their next album, im a huge Travis fan!!!!!!!! I love every single one of their albums. I dont understand(and frankly had no idea) that so many people hated or disliked 12 Memories., in my opinion its a good album. :nice:

[Kite]

Shouldn't this thread be merged with the offical travis thread?

[talisman]

can't wait to hear their new album and see what they are comming up with:)

[REManic]

can't wait to hear their new album and see what they are comming up with:)


Yeah me too, I just hate when bands stop producing, you know...I hope Travis keep on!

[ugadawg5]

Travis are going to lose some fans if they don't keep them up to date as to what is going on. They are leaving us all hanging without any info about their new album. Seriously rude.

[lozm]

I heard that a dj on virgin radio the other day said he's heard most of the album and that it's sounding really good, but he also said it wouldn't be released till early next year.:(

[Sienna]

early next year? That doesnt sound bad, the year is almost over anyway!:dance:

[ugadawg5]

to our brit friends, please report anything you hear on the album. travis gets no exposure in the states. instead, radio reports on shit bands like evanesence.

[maiu]

we should have our own nik's corner so we'll all be blown away by his knowledge.

*back to the subject*
I really like 12 memories so i can't wait to hear new stuff. Hope it's good.

[square_1]

I think is gonna be their greattest album cause they've delayed 3 years! Besides they have a song with Kt Tunstall:)

[Mychoo]

I really love Travis' music . I hope they'll quickly come back . :)

[Sienna]

to our brit friends, please report anything you hear on the album. travis gets no exposure in the states. instead, radio reports on shit bands like evanesence.


LMFAO!! :laugh4::laugh4:
Its true!

[linnea]

I heard that a dj on virgin radio the other day said he's heard most of the album and that it's sounding really good, but he also said it wouldn't be released till early next year.:(

that's not so bad, think we can wait till next year.. at least it's on its way :) and if it's sounding good then that's even better!

btw I'm sure there's an official Travis thread here somewhere..

[linnea]

bump

I just bought my own copy of The Invisible Band last week and yes, it's definitely my favourite Travis album

[lozm]

The official Travis site is currently down and has been for a few hours. Oh dear god, I hope this means their updating it!!!! *Crosses fingers*

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

[yellowy eyes]

:sick: where are they?

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

for me the albums are 50-50,but i like memories too

[RadioMad]

According to this Myspace link (official???) the band is currently unsigned.
http://www.myspace.com/travistheband

Does that mean they have split ways with Independiente???

[lozm]

Sorry guys, no site update, hope I didn't get anyone's hopes up:(

[Sienna]

Nah. Its cool:(
Time goes by fast and we'll have updates soon:heart:

[lozm]

Lets hope so, Im dying for a new Travis album. Not so bothered about the album, although I would like some new music from them, but I can't wait to see them live again.

[ugadawg5]

AGGHH!!!! WHERE IS THE NEWS FOR THIS ALBUM?!?!?!? :bomb:

[yellowy eyes]

http://www.last.fm/user/SideFlower/journal/2006/08/22/212255/

[ugadawg5]

well, this helps.

from http://www.last.fm/user/SideFlower/journal/2006/08/22/212255/

KT Tunstall has been reported as providing backing vocals on a song called
"Under The Moonlight", while on a visit to the studio to watch the band
recording, actor Ben Stiller, a fan, is said to have contributed a cowbell. "My
Eyes" was debuted at an acoustic gig in Glasgow in aid of Cash For Kids in
December 05. Some of the lyrics are "Welcome in, welcome in, shame about the
weather. You will be wise. Pretty soon you will see tears in my eyes." Fran
reveals: 'One of the new songs, "Three Times And You Lose", started out as a
soundtrack which Andy had written called A Gig Too Far. That's what Neil said
when he was being treated after his accident.' Two versions have been recorded
and he describes it as sounding like 'The Eagles, but in a good way.' Fran adds:
'There's another song called "Eye Of The Needle", which Dougie and I knocked out
between us. It's like a hymn written to be played at the funeral of a person who
doesn't believe in God. It's all about an epiphany and where you go next. 'The
lyrics are "At a glance I could see it like a needle in the hay, all our paths
are all leading the same way. Through the eye of the needle we will pass, but
till then, Amen." 'It's just about thinking about life, not death, and just
celebrating life really.' On working with Brian Eno, Fran said "Out of the
fourteen things, we came out with about four that are definitely sounding like
they could be turned into something pretty cool," he explained, "We don’t have
any track titles at the moment as they’re all just big pieces of music, but Neil
named them all and one of them is called "Magpie" and one was called "Christmas
Turkey Dinner"… Though I don’t know where that came from.”

[linnea]

thanks for that link Ella! Early 2007 sounds good to me. I somehow managed to lose the live version of Closer I had on my computer, so maybe there'll be an album version of it soon.

[lozm]

Both Fran and Dougie have posted on the Travis message board in the last couple of days regarding the new album. This is from Fran:

Americana. New Yoik. Home tomorrow. Mixing all done. Phew.


And this was posted by Dougie today:

hey all
long time no type! thanks v much for delightful birthday wishes. Had a great one thanks.
We are busy trying to work out a tracklisting for the new record. It all sounds very excting, so it's quite tricky. But bear with us. muchos gracias for your patience so far. Not long now.
woo and indeed hoo!
toodles.
xdp

Sounds like it's nearly ready then:D

[ugadawg5]

i know they keep saying not long now, but for God's sake, they could put our nerves to rest if they would just give us a time frame, like early next year or march-april. hope it is soon though. real soon.

[talisman]

still good news, at least we know they are working on, not messin around.

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

[kekita]

[lozm]

lol its much'a's gracias not much'o's lol

I can't believe it's going to be too long, it sounds like they've finished it and their just puting the final touches to it, cherry on the cake and all that. Lets hope so.

[ugadawg5]

[square_1]

They've delayed so much.....

[ugadawg5]

hey guys, has anyone heard anything further regarding the Travis album?:\

[Sienna]

Nada :(

[Kite]

They have finished recording album 5 and it is getting mixed at the moment for a August 2007 release.

[ég-elska-Thom]

KT Tunstall ? Uh... Well, I really hope the album will good, I'm not so sure though. *crosses fingers* I really want to see them live again!

[Gitta Rensolo]

as long as there won't be a "12 Memories revival album" I'll be happy....

[Sienna]

^:laugh4: I actually loved that album.

But yeah, I accept wasnt their best, cant wait for a new one!

[ég-elska-Thom]

I loved it, too. Walking Down The Hill already is so freaking pretty. I loved how the whole album was so depressing.

[ugadawg5]
