recording done/short break/end of may tour

So we had some awesome shows in May. Knut and Keelhaul was incredible. We also recorded our new EP in April and we've started mixing. Artwork is in the pipeline, will be by Miriam Dobson who did the Mammalian painting.

We're taking a few weeks off and we're all psyched for end of May tour with Tree of Sores. We're still looking for a date on May 31st, hit us up if you can help or know anyone who can. Merch stuff, we've sold out of grey shirts and we're running out of Mammalian albums. Sadly all the money we've made has gone on various things (petrol, van hire, rent etc.) so we won't be able to afford another run for a short while.

Here are some photos from recording. Sorry about the poor quality, I forgot to take my camera to the studio:

plans

we're planning for a release that will happen in the summer. 3 tracks now, two are heavy and one is a jam track but nothing like the one on the last release (mammalian). we're recording from April 15th-17th and we'll probably do most of it live. potential tracklisting is:

1.Welcome to the Cool Club
2. Mexploitation
3. Cptn. Cluedo

In other news we've had a bunch more reviews for Mammalian. One in Rock Sound gave us 9/10 which is sweet, massive respect to them. Others:

Echoes and Dust
Room Thirteen
Metal Perspective

And we're still looking for gigs with Tree of Sores on May 29th, 31st and June 1st if there's anyone wanting to put us on. Also looking for shows in late June/early July with Whitemare.

had to cancel a show, sorry!/need to book a tour

Unfortunately we've had to cancel the gig we were meant to be playing on April 21st at Bannerman's in Edinburgh. I've just got a new job and start that week so I can't get time off to play it. We were all really looking forward to visiting Edinburgh as none of us have been yet but we will rearrange the gig for later in the year. Sorry!

We're looking for shows with Tree of Sores (who are awesome) on May 28th, 29th, 30th, 31st and June 1st. If anyone can help us out with a show then email us. Address is on the right.

In other news, more Mammalian reviews:

new shows, recording, tours

We've got a bunch of shows coming up in April which should be good. If anyone can sort us out with some more then that'd be great. Unusually for us we're playing two gig in Sheffield in the same month but it'll be worth coming to both as we'll be playing totally different sets at each, none of the same songs. We'll also be playing new tracks at all of the shows in April.

We're recording in mid-April and hopefully we'll have a new release out in the summer. We're planning tours this summer with Tree of Sores from Leeds and Whitemare from Brighton. Both will be around late May/early-mid June. Details of shows will be in a box on the side of this page.

new stuff, cluedo and reviews

We're going into the studio to record two new tracks in a weekend in April sometime with the hope of releasing them in the summer; tentative titles are "Captain Cluedo" and "Welcome to the Cool Club".

Here are some more Mammalian reviews:
Reflections of Darkness
Rock Freaks
Lords of Metal

CD out, more reviews, shirts in our store

Right, Mammalian is out now and can be bought from our store. We also have t-shirts available for £4 + postage. We have about 20 left and some sizes have sold out. Album launch went swimmingly and if you weren't there then you should check out Antares, Tacoma Narrows Bridge Disaster and Bleaklow all of whom are awesome.

After the album launch we ventured south. While there we were assaulted by builders, played a show and Michael got a kitten. Here are some more Mammalian reviews:

Harvest Moon Music
Sunyata
Zine and Not Heard

Mammalian pre-orders up now

You can pre-order our new CD at our bigcartel now. It's £5 plus postage and will come in a lovely digipack with artwork by miriam dobson

More reviews have come and gone, can't find links for some but here is one by Mark Neighbour and one by Zest for Life Zine

Here are some sketchy videos of us recording the album:
