I've refreshed múm:web forum! Gone with phpbb, we use now something called Vanilla which is nicer. All the old posts are here, nothing's been lost. Even your accounts. Well, the passwords didn't make it over. So, if you want to login, you'll have to click the Sign In link and click the "I forgot my password" link. You'll get an email that will tell you how to reset your password.

I haven't been around lately, sorry. But hey, I got the new múm album. I don't like it as much as the one before, but it's still great. Very happy.
Let me know what you think about this forum. I think I'll work on a small theme to make it a little more múmish. There are still 3 categories. Tell me if you think there should be more. Tell me everything! :)
Hey Mika!! Welcome back! It's so very good to hear from you!
I'm very surprised to suddenly see a new forum... format... type thing, haha...but it is more attractive than the other one. It'll take some getting used to, but if it helps keeps those spam bots away it's more than welcomed, in my opinion. Also, also a more múm-ish theme is always something appreciated.
Also, i would just like to say, from the other post, that múm didn't disband, like you mentioned. I really enjoy this community of us "múm children," or "múm imps," (terms i just made up) or "múm-ians," or whatever you'd like to call us. Since a majority of us were here before the new line-up formed with múm, it makes things much easier to share old (as well as new) recordings *looks at danlynch a.k.a. nyctaper.org*, or share old remixes and songs múm have composed before the new line-up; and share them with new fans of múm so they can appreciate the REAL amazement of múm. Some of that old stuff can be super hard to find...
I went to the concert on Novembeter 4th, in Portland, OR...I ran into an old school chum, after some catching up with him, once the show started, they (the school chum, and friend) were like animals...tons of people. Singing along, or being really bouncy, or clapping to the rhythm of the songs--i might add, these guy couldn't even get the rhythm down properly, so it was terribly annoying/distracting for me, so that was a little disappointing to me. I always enjoy listening to every detail that múm provides in their live rendition of songs--which they sometimes make a completely different composition...and I feel like the fans that have come along since the beginning of the new line-up can't quiet appreciate that yet...
Anyway, i should probably save other thoughts/details on a different thread. Point is: (and i state this again for everyone) that i love this community, because it's a place that i feel i can belong in my adoration of múm, when it feels like there is no other place for it.
