  • 16/2/04 3 IS THE MAGIC NUMBER

  • The band's biggest gig to date last week, supporting Dogs Die In Hot Cars and The Zutons, was memorable for the fact that it was our keyboardists last gig. Andi was with the band for a year and appeared on all the band's recorded material to date. For live shows all keyboards have been recorded and will be played via a backing track so the electronic element is not lost. In fact, it has just got a whole lot bigger!

  • 9/2/04 RECORDING NEW MATERIAL

    H&A Review

  • 7/12/03 FINISHED IN THE STUDIO

  • The band have been unleashed from the hard work in the studio having laid down the new material along with a remix of "Violence" from their last EP, to prepare for the upcoming gigs in December. The band are very happy with what has been achieved and are eager for people to hear it early in the New Year. Thanks goes to John Halliday at Shonk studios for his help, good work and patience in getting the result the band were looking for. To give you something of an insight into the new release without giving too much away, the first song is 6 minutes long and features new production and sound elements that the band were keen to use in the pieces. You can expect to hear some reverse keyboards, poetry and Noel giving it some on the distortion and feedback side of things! Boys with toys. A brand new song altogether will be performed for the first time in the band's next gig in London. David will be temporarily ditching the bass to play the keys on this new highly infectious electro number that will have you moving your feet in no time.
