I'm excited for more Syphus. If he'd had a physical release for sale at Blip 08 I woulda bought it. Glad to see he's getting an album together. He seems to have disappeared from 8bc/CM/IRC, which is a shame.
This isn't really news though: that video and album announcement have been on his site for at least a month.
Also violin really is like my least favorite instrument. Couldn't we have some nice cello or double bass instead? Even just viola?

Having listened to Syphus for a long long time now, I was getting depressed that he'd given up after not hearing new stuff from him lately. Now this is exciting.

Syphus is great. Who else shreds like that over such dance-able music? 
I love some of his modules, but I've been wanting to hear something with the live instrumentation on top. I'll be keeping an eye out for the upcoming album.

He's an excellent live performer, I've seen him play 4 or 5 times now, really nice guy too. He's absolutely insane on violin and keytar, one of the highlights for me was his duet with goto80 in Newcastle.

28 days ago, he told me he's got about 60% done and should finish the rest before the year is out. So how much do you think he's gotten done now?
Hooray!

"Weird" is a bit extreme, don't you think? Words hurt, man

Syphus Syndrome:
In psychology, Syphus syndrome is a term used to describe a paradoxical psychological phenomenon wherein hostages express adulation and have positive feelings towards their captors, believing themselves to be Newcastle-based musician, Syphus, mistaking a lack of abuse from their captors as an act of acceptance into the chip music scene.
