In an email sent out by the band on the 18th of this month, Athlete kindly sends their warm regards heading into the new year. Tied with their greeting is a little self promotion to get you to sign up for their mailing list. And why not, since you can check up on their tour dates and any other news you may not be aware of. However, if you're not one of the lucky few who are anywhere near Leicester University or Hull University, you will most likely not be seeing Athlete any time soon.
If you DO want to listen to their free MP3s of "It's Not Your Fault" and "Tokyo (Metal Box Remix)", you will need to enter some info on this page. You won't recieve anything if you unclick on the little boxes on the bottom, which defaults a checked box. But I can't say I've been getting spammed out of my mind by them, so it really couldn't hurt.
Also, if you aren't aware, Ian Archer is an ex-Snow Patrol band member on tour to support Athlete's show. From the email:
"Secondly Iain Archer has had to pull out of the Irish dates but Kowalski will be playing in his place. Iain is in our studio at the moment recording some new tracks, I can’t wait to hear how they come out. Finally there are still a few tickets left at some of the gigs so if this is the first time you’re hearing about a new Athlete tour it’s not too late. Hurry though because it is nearly too late."
Lastly, Athlete allowed a glimpse into the first half of their tour, which began in 2007. You can check out their progress in the video below.0 Comments:
