tom drum

not the most exciting spectator sport

our loving mother in a pink diamond

so i have been very lazy on the blog front, i looked at the last post and couldn't believe it was from june last year, time has flown, last time i posted we were still writing the album, joel was still playing bass and i didn't have a lifeguard qualification. now, over half a year later most of the album is recorded, bob matthews plays bass in the band and i am a fully trained lifeguard!

we recorded the first half of the album with johnny tams in morden(!) before christmas and now were finishing the second half and mixing the whole album with tom bailey (who used to play guitar in vincent vincent and the villians) in and around dalston! i think were gonna post some studio videos in the next month or so with some live snippets of the album songs, the above image gave name to one of the songs on the album and also the name of this post, it was on some guys flickr and he believes you can see the virgin mary entering a pink diamond which symbolises heaven i guess, but to me, i see a very nice accidental glare from a photo, i'd quite like this to be the cover of the album but we'll see about that! gotta start doing some more drawings as well for that!

im off to watch charlie brooker's screenwipe! speak soon
