Paul Draper - Don't Poke The Bear

[@criticwithashotgun]

Some time has gone by since the last time I heard his voice.... and this was truly worth the wait .. amazing! thank you Paul!!

[@benwherlock9869]

'Things People Want' is an instant hit whereas this is a real grower! Love it.

[@ihavetourettesfcksht6130]

Brilliant tune, I wish this was edited into a single version.

[@goldsaj]

You have always been a good songwriter Paul.. Welcome back, great to have new material, after all these years.

[@SheilaZeke]

Draper's EP on CD format was so well mastered going to get hot Spooky Action the same way. And I see he's still believer in the five-to-ten minute opener epic.

[@peterturner2259]

He's poking the bear with this one!

[@DustyWagon]

Opener for the live set surely? Lovely crisp synth! Congratulations Paul, welcome back

[@Drufi]

That'd be epic, spewing i live in australia but i'm getting that album no matter what!

[@CarlosmanuelChavezayuso-gi5qy]

Great Song Great Effects 🎹🎸👏👏👏👏👏👍👌👋

[@lewisbarrah8804]

This is amazing. I don't even want to compare it to Mansun, it's a thing of it's own

[@ZIPANC]

Deluxe 3 disc edition in 48 page hardback book, featuring the album on CD, a second disc of bonus material, and a DVD containing the album in 5.1 surround sound and high-res surround sound stereo, and a short documentary. The artwork is by Steve Stacey, whose previous clients include Calvin Harris, Manic Street Preachers, Circa Waves and Lou Reed. Can't wait!:)

[@Drufi]

r u serious? if what you're saying is true we're all in for a big treat!

[@steventyson412]

Nice to have you back Paul - looking forward to the Album, tracks are sounding and feeling great.

[@FFFFantathrills]

Welcome back, Paul.

[@Prizzy999]

This song is spectacular.

[@massumaquraischi972]

I deeply hope that he will come to play in Germany one day. I cannot miss those fucking awesome tunes live on stage.

[@TheWeirdoL]

Release on my birthday?! Wow, the greatest present ever :D We've been waiting for too long and finally it's almost here.

[@SamHaynesMusic]

Love the spookiness with the synths at the start. Its really great cant wait for the LP to arrive!

[@stannats2637]

Congrats! Epic

[@nieumarla]

wow!

[@craigmurray9605]

reminds me of Radiohead's Nathional Anthem. With a bit of Dr Who...

[@derekmichael44477]

Even elements of Meeting In The Aisle with the descending pattern throughout

[@therealdrof]

Definite shades of Television in there. Good stuff.

[@MrMlh1972]

Drowned in Sound man. Fucking epic!

[@mariselanahui8365]

Amazing!

[@themindrobbers]

Not taking any Prisoners with this effort - straight in at the deep end with those vocals....

[@hwangman]

This is weird and I love it.

[@karentowers2134]

trippy intro, love it 👹

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

Liking the vocals...no holding back and some great musicianship when you listen to it on headphones

[@lukefriend86]

Love!

[@michaellee1663]

Definitely a return to something more Prog

[@staffkris3544]

Great track

[@bucephalus00]

4:20 is that a silhouette of Catherine?

[@adrianadarde]

[@blueryna9768]

😻😻😻

[@Drufi]

Lovin it, the bass line reminds me of "getting Your Way" from Kleptomania but that aint bad. Wondering if this is a cautionary tale not to demonise Russia and keeping pushing lies about them in the news...maybe reading into it too much, maybe not. Bring on the Spooky Action, I'm preordering it now :-)

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

Yeah I can definitely see the bass line similarities

[@GODDOG-gj1oh]

this song is fucking crazy, I LOVE it

[@blueprintblue6781]

I'm actually listening to this while poking the beef.

[@고고좋은방향]

역시 폴드레퍼

[@kezabel7201]

Genius

[@DavidOakesMusic]

Reminds me of Six a bit.

[@創価学会と公明党は集団]

cool

[@raygun76]

If you don't get tapped to write the next Bond theme song after that epic 3 minute intro, fuuckkk!!

[@virtualsnake1994]

this is quite something...

[@dukespirit25]

[@aLittlePal]

He is... well... [ ] in an awesome way.
