I maintain a full discography for Future Sound of London and their many aliases. It has been about a year since the last update but I do intend to update it soon, along with the Moby discography. I'm still waiting for some info from Instinct to go ahead with that. Astralwerks (the division of Caroline handling their US distribution) recently announced that the single "Lifeforms" and the album by the same name would be released soon. However the post they put to the net made it look like it was all coming out on the same day - March 15 - while another post mentioned that the Seefeel album (different band mentioned in the same release schedule) wasn't coming out until April, so you can interpret that to mean that the new FSoL single will probably come first, then the album, and this may happen as early as March 15. Lifeforms (the album) will be their 5th album, technically speaking. They released an acid house album as Humanoid, a singles compilation album called Earth Beat, their first album as Future Sound of London came out in 1992 - it was called Accelerator and contains their big hit "Papua New Guinea" which was also featured on the Cool World soundtrack, and their latest album was Tales of Ephidrina, released in 1993 under the name Amorphous Androgynous.
