You chocolate-filled land mines,

As you may already know, our new single is out this week. It's called AFTER HOURS, and it's the first thing to come off of our new album BRAIN THRUST MASTERY, unless you count an unfathomable quantity of luke-warm anticipation!!

Own it: BUY IT; TO OWN IT, BUY IT.

Order AFTER HOURS in any of its wonderful formats (we got your picture discs, we got your box sets, we got your VHS) here: AFTER HOURS PURCHASE BUTTON REGION

iTunes got us to give them a special acoustic version of this song, a version that we recorded live at Union Chapel in December, and you can get that here: VERSION FOR A ROMANTIC DINNER WITH BRUCE WAYNE (ALIAS THE BAT)

Here is what the critics would be saying if they had taken our suggestions:

"AFTER HOURS is like a kitten licking my tongue with the sand-papery tongue of him. That is to say I was squeamish, but now can't imagine kissing another."

"It sounds like going to Heaven, going to Valhalla, going to Elysium, and then, at the end, sh** gets even better for that final chorus -- that is AFTER HOURS to me, this journalist." (cover review -- review appeared in its entirety on the cover of the magazine, on top of picture of Duffy, on top of her face)

"A blast of fresh air into the tomb of modern rock music. I dropped a turd. I've been listening to this non-stop since I received it four days ago -- I've listened to it nearly 1400 times. Over the last 200 listens or so, I've started to hate it a lot. It's not fair to review this track based on listens 1200-1400. AFTER HOURS makes me tear at my face right now, but it is an excellent song."

IN THE VISIBLE WORLD OF VIDEO

We whacked our dicks on camera last week at the NME Awards and the result was this journalistic neutron bomb: THE CAMERA LOVES THE WAY WE LOOK AT HIM
