 Fantasy Black Channel 's track listing and UK CD release date of 11 August 2008 were confirmed on 11 June . Faley has claimed that " the album fell into place itself , like the songs basically told us where they wanted to go on the album " . Late of the Pier picked the record 's name at random after first contemplating using Peggy Patch and Her Sequenced Dress . The cover art was designed by a friend of the band members from Brighton , Jon Bergman . A final EP containing material already released in 2007 and 2008 , <unk> <unk> , was released in July 2008 as part of the marketing campaign for the forthcoming album . Potter has summed the record 's conception by concluding , " I think in the three years to build up to the album , we never actually thought of a track list , and we never really kind of considered the fact that it should sound like an album . I think we recorded all the songs and then they were there and it was like , ' Oh , we have to kind of stitch this together and make it sound like one piece . ' "
