Philip Raffaele reports: (pitchforkmedia.com)

On August 2nd, select members of the press were invited by
Warp Records to the London Planetarium for a preview of the
new Aphex Twin double-album, Druqks. For what seemed like
decades, a packed crowed stared at the ceiling while the
trademarked sound of Richard D. James blasted out of every
speaker. As the invitation stated, "Music will be the only
free refreshment available." And so it was.

A brief selection of the 30 tracks of the album found the
typical manic beats, in tandem with naive melodies that
don't know what they are doing, mixed up with accompanying
hyper-percussion. The tagline for one of the tracks is "Come
on you cunts lets have some Aphex acid," which is where the
marketing campaign will center. Alongside the press, there
were some suits from EMI, and fellow Rephlexians Cylob and
Mike "Judge" Dred. As the teaser single on the mystery label
MEN, titled 2 Remixes by AFX, has been selling like
hotcakes, the consensus is that Druqks will be one of the
biggest selling albums of the year, if not in the history of
all mankind. It will be released in the U.S. on October
22nd.
