    It's there best album by a mile. Still, not overly pushed on this format. Paint by numbers.

    They'll play tracks that have never been heard live.

    It'll be like the JFPL touur in 2009 - first half will be the album in full, second half will be a 15 song greatest hits set.

    Week before Xmas- I'm sold!

    I'm not complaining. I remember seeing them at Feile in Tipperary. I was at the front and hated them. They blew me away that day, instant fan.

    Saw them doing the same thing in the Olympia for Journal For Plague Lovers when it first came out and it was excellent... so expecting nothing short of greatness for this. Can't wait.

    The Intense Humming of Evil... that should be fun!

    Will be coming home for this - seen them in Luxembourg and they restored my faith in them.

    Last few times i seen them before lux was at european festivals and was very disappointed.

    To be expected at European festivals.

    This one though, in the intimate surroundings of the Olympia, will be one for the fanatics :)

    Ha ha, yeah that happened a bit at festivals i think, heard some brutal examples of it before.

    This vid is probably more appropriate for a Holy Bible gig thread though

    I would love to go to this but NONE of my friends like them - I'm half thinking of just going anyway by myself - would that be weird?

    It would be stranger if thats the reason you wouldn't go.

    Been to loads of festivals and gigs on my own and always meet like minded people. Dont regret not going.
