Just wanted to say I think the microsite is completely fab - clearly the band are on board, and the design and tantalising 30 second clips, new videos and upcoming competitions..... WOW.
Congrats to all involved (imagine Cerise had a lot to do with it).

Roll on 28th May.

The microsite is fab, well done! Love the videos - I hope we're going to hear from Chris & Warren soon! It'll be fun checking it out periodically.

Actually I didn't, but thank you for compliment! It was all EMI, with the band's input - I just gave it a checking-over. wink

Not sure if the guys have more footage but if they did it would make a great DVD on how an album is made. I was fascinated just watching Billy, Midge and Chris just throwing things together, trying this, trying that, extremely interesting stuff.

I love the Microsite, in fact i'm getting very excited about the whole album / tour thing.
I've entered the first comp, fingers crossed.
I hope I get the same feeling on the first play of Brilliant as I did on my first play of Vienna all those years ago, i'm sure I will!

I'm absolutely loving the build up to the album's release and the microsite is superb. I love the video clips and the layout looks nice and classy! This is where technology is at it's best as it has allowed us to become so much more involved than we were the last time they released an album!! I'm like a kid waiting for christmas and havent felt this anticipation in years! Thank you to everyone involved.

well, I bet you previous input and 'checking over' were appreciated.
Its a first for me as I'm not too bothered about the internet revolution or social networking (other than Ultravox.org.uk obviously), and I was very impressed.

Mostly I'm just over-excited generally!

I came home from work today to an e-mail from EMI records.I've only won a signed copy of The Very Best Of Ultravox via the first competition on the microsite.I'm so chuffed because I don't usually win a thing.I already own the album but that's not the point.I will treasure it forever!

brilliant (sorry) to know that a true fan has won; and I see there are a couple of new videos up today as well.
Think we had the lyrics to Brilliant right between us! And the sight of Billy playing his ARP........
can't wait to book my tickets for gigs later this week!

I must admit the Lyric video whils simple is effective. In the absence of any promo this should be released to the music channels to get some airplay.

I notice that the site contains the "first live dates since 2009" mistake that has been repeated in most of the tour publicity I have read. You would think that an "official" site would get it right rolleyes

I think, but am by no means certain, that this is because officially the 2010 dates were a continuation of the Return to Eden tour. Hope this helps!
