there are plenty of decent retailers in the US which will send it the UK pretty cheaply. I got my copy from www.cdconnection.com in October '04,it only cost about $13 including postage, thats under seven quid!

I didn't know they could do an import ban, but I wouldn't be surprised... The Features' record company are fucking up well and truly by not releasing the album over here. They've released been releasing singles over the last year or so, and they've created their demand. The record company need to get their arse in gear. By the time the album is released here everyone will have bought it on import - there'll be no one left to buy it!

Three out of the four people in my house in Sheffield have a copy on import. If that was translated to a national scale, The Features would have sold about 45 million records to Uk citizens already.

Has the actual "problem" ever been explained by anyone? I know the management has admitted there is a problem, which is the first step, but I'm not sure it has ever been explained in detail.

I have no idea. I did ask Matt when I saw them last, but he didn't seem to know why either.
