Well, its bin a while. A lot has happened , not all of it good.

About John……

He was refused re-entry to the UK due to visa issues. He is now temporarily in Berlin. This is why the furure is in doubt – we have no way of knowing how long we can keep going on different continents. The fact is if you understand the way we work – well it requires time and proximity. Believe me when I say we can’t just send sound files back and forth.

About Leipzig……

Probably one of our best shows – our new bass player Andie Brown ripped up a storm. The venue was beautiful, you were beautiful, we were beautiful, the other bands were beautiful,it was abig feckin love in…..

About MLB Madrid…….

Jesus looked after us something special, we had comfortable rooms, the sound engineer looked like a 1970s porn star, the people who were there were beautiful we were be….oh, we’ve done that. Jesus lost lots of money and we wished just 20 more people showed up each night.

About the album….

Still being mastered, but track listing finalised and ar t work nearly done. Sonically tougherbut a lot rougher since we lost Hunter at the studio helm. ITS THE SONGS THAT COUNT though and they are sharp, succinct, abstract and actually a bit more Birthday Party fighting SPK with angle grinders whilst cherubs and holy choirs try and sing above the sound of a tower block demolition in Hackney…than anything that would make sense….

This will get released and we will trumpet it’s arrival in the flesh.

Its not the winning, but the struggle…..
