For long term Elbow watchers the announcement that Dead in the Boot, the often mooted B-sides album, is finally due for release at the end of the month will be very good news indeed.
First talked about around the time of the release of the band's debut album Asleep in the Back, Dead in the Boot brings together B-sides and the odd non-album track from the band's 13-year recording career.
The record is available on from 24 August, a week before the band take to the stage at this year's Electric Picnic.
The full tracklist for the album is:
1 'Whisper Grass'
2 'Lucky With Disease'
3 'Lay Down Your Cross'
4 'The Long War Shuffle'
5 'Every Bit The Little Girl'
6 'Love Blown Down'
7 'None One'
8 'Lullaby'
9 'McGreggor'
10 'Buffalo Ghosts'
11 'Waving From Windows'
12 'Snowball'
13 'Gentle As'
