With surprising and refreshing swiftness, our wee demo has come together most satisfactorily. Though we have taken a good while over it, snatching sessions at Hiram HQ with Tuffnut twiddling his knobs as and when we could, I think it’s fair to say that we are quietly confident that this recording will put smiles on faces and definitely showcases some of the subtler points of MOTM… stuff that maybe got lost on the last recording (which was executed in double quick time…)
We stuck to our wee plan, were all determined and focused… and G was/is a godsend… and what we’ve ended up with is 3 tracks of prime-cut mammoth...
As mentioned in previous messages, the CD (available from the 24th July and all other gigs for the extortionate sum of £1) will feature 2 tracks (“Kill Your Boss” and “Say What You Mean; Mean What You Say”) which we have already played at shows, so are not technically ‘new’. But the third track “Rumsfeld’s Unspoken Fourth Epistemological Insight” is brand new… and is, in my opinion, the most interesting and challenging of the tracks…
…but whatever…
…now the easy, fun stuff begins… the shows…
We kick off our short jaunt around the country with a steady hometown show on the 24th… we’re on early – around 4 – so we’ll be having a good time, having a drink and getting our gig-heads back on before heading on to do Leeds, Bradford, Sheff. (maybe), Birmingham and then London… which is nice…
We’ll be playing a few towns for the first time and we’ll be all virginal, so please do come to a show and pick up a CD; we do try hard and I defy you to find a bigger bunch of show-offs… and that’s just me and Jimothy…
Peace,
b!x
