Break the silence

Hello there! 
We haven't actually disappeared, we've been very busy writing an album we hope people will like, trying to distill what we're about so you can drink it. Been keeping a low profile for the last few months and haven't done any shows but we shall return soon with lots of new tricks (we have to learn how to perform the tricks first, like swallowing swords or the thing where you keep pulling the never-ending handkerchief out of someone's pocket).
As far as releases go its a bit early still throw dates around since we haven't recorded the album yet but we'll hopefully have a single out this year and the album will follow early next year.

In the mean time we will correspond more, perhaps put up some covers we've done lately or even a few demos, though we don't want to spoil anything...


Check out:
Talking Heads - 'Born Under Punches(The heat goes on)' off Remain in Light
Janet Jackson - 'LUV'  off Discipline
Roxy Music - 'Love is the Drug' off Siren
Junior Boys - 'Bellona' off Last Exit
Happy Mondays - 'Donovan' of Pills n Thrills and Bellyaches 
White Rabbits - 'Midnight and I' off It's Frightening
Esau Mwamwaya & Radioclit - 'Tengazako' off 'The Very Best' Mixtape
Friendly Fires - 'Skeleton Boy(Air France Remix)' 
The Horrors - 'Mirror's Image' off Primary Colours
David Bowie - 'Ashes to Ashes' off Scary Monsters... "i'm happy, hope you're happy too...."


See ya~
