The latest announcement about the bands new album seems to signal the end of The Boy With No Name. I was really hoping to see Battleships unleashed on the charts.

Can't say I'm too disappointed. I think their minds have moved on to the new one, which they're really excited about. Hopefully they'll be a good single / many good singles on it to get them a bit more popularity again :)
'Unleashed on the charts' sounds a bit optimistic, I think it would be more letting it flap at the tail end of the top 40, though the extra b-sides would have been appreciated! |

I would like "Battleships" as a single also...
I think it is a song which deserved to be part of the Album's promotion.
Well, have a nice day!. |

| Or maybe the question is : "So no more gigs then?"...I gave up waiting to see them here,in Turkey.It's a huge shame while thousands of fans are waiting for them,desperately. |

It's sort of like the Pipe Dreams of the record--it was supposed to be the next single but it never happened. Also, in one of the interviews they said that they'd used up all the tracks they wanted to, including b-sides for The Boy. |

I have a feeling the record company had alot to do with that though. I dont think they'd be prepared to release another single. |

I agree that 'Battleships' is super radio friendly. But have no clue about the music biz so I'm sure there are all sorts of reasons why it's been shelved...  |
