There are a few comments in another thread about this so i thought i'd air my views.
Some are complaining it's only an EP that's being released, but look at her discography to date. 2 EPs and 1 full length album. After SMA we all thought it'd go better... a proper record label, promotion etc... but yes, she decamped from dear old blighty to chase fortunes in the USofA.
I am not suprised at the fact it's only an EP, the material we've heard is a far cry from SMA and almost a return to the acoustic, mellowdrama of the first two records. This is what Carina is amazing at. I don't mind the lack of a full length album, im just happy that there is some form of new material.
I just hope this record gets distributed equally in the UK this time as opposed to having to wait a while for her to play a handful of gigs in the UK and being lucky to buy a copy there and then. I know the music scene isn't what it used to be, but with the power of the tinternet we are approaching a new dawn. Carina's (seemingly) self promotion is making far more waves than he old record label did.
I look forward to hearing it, and will always try to be one of the first in line for a UK gig ticket!!!!

As one of those who expressed disappointment that it'll be an EP, I was encouraged by a recent article (Observer I think) that said that the EP / mini album is making a comeback and is a good format for the download age. Presumably, a few good songs fairly frequently rather than a full album every couple of years, with the inevitable fillers.
