Whenever I'm on a computer it always feels like I should be checking something, and if there's nothing interesting emailwise it was always a good feeling to see what people are saying on your myspace and if you're lucky accept some friend requests with nice messages attached. But myspace, whilst being a particularly beneficial phenomenon for bands in the last few years, is a bit annoying and also kind of dying.
We don't really like writing anything on our myspace page either because it gets lost amongst all the shit that happens on screen and it always seems like you're trying to sell something (we're not in it for money... i swear). So we've decided to kill two birds with one blog and marry our love for talking rubbish with the hope that some people somewhere like our music and would like to read about what we do...
So anyways, at this point in time The Holidays have released one record that amused radio announcers with the its triple name score, 'Holiday' by The Holidays off their EP The Holidays, and are now working on the next installment; another EP, probably 5 tracks or so to be recorded in just a few weeks time at home in sydney. Its exciting and I find studios are a bit like a holiday themselves, and you have so many voices and ideas that in the end you make decisions depending on what you had for lunch at 5 in the afternoon. This studio has one of our favourite japanese places across the road so it looks like soft shell crab will be producing this album.
We're about to play a bunch of shows all over the country in the next few months too so we'll keep posting as often as wireless hotspots and mondayitis allow.
Aspirat primo Fortuna labori
