Spaghetti Songs

It's not the new record, but an EP of old b-sides and funny out takes that don't really fit on the new record. It has eight "songs', including the legendary "Overhead Mic Falls On James" and "Rookie Organ Nite @ The Leaf Game". I'm still working on the new full-length, and with these tunes off of it, it's shaping up to be a killer beach-y summer album.

Working away...hiding away

As ever, we have a new record coming out soon. Initially it was supposed to be mostly b-sides with a few acoustic strums thrown in for good measure, but it's now grown into something bigger, weirder, and cooler. Been fucking around with a loop pedal for some songs, a killer cover of the Stones' "Out of Time" with Jamie, that tune with Mark from Crop Failure, and some other goodies. I hope to get Russell and Dave out for a few songs, and maybe Hacker too.
The record will be out in may, only on cassette but w/ a download code. As before, it's called Mercy Among The Children.

 Yahhh
