plans for 2009...

we have some pretty exciting plans for next year.

firstly, we'll be embarking on our first trips to germany and the netherlands in january, playing at eurosonic festival on our way. we'll then join the bronx and fucked up for the shred yr face 2 tour in the UK. sweet bill, eh?

this is potentially the most exciting thing we have going on though; a singles club! in 2009 we'll be releasing 4 exclusive 7"s containing new and exclusive material. whilst i can't divulge too much right now, expect splits, covers and sweeeet remixes. you can pre-order this now from here for a reasonable £16. get involved.

4 days in

to yet another tour!
we had a couple of days in LDN before we started to sort out various tomassi bits. this included a BBC session for huw stephens that included a xmas cover of east 17's stay another day. i don't know if its aired yet but if it has you can listen back here.

after we did that we went down to rak studios to do some backing vocals on the new gallows record. we got to record with gggarth who's done stuff for rage against the machine. not bad. unfortunately though i screamed myself hoarse and have consequently lost my voice. i can speak ok but the last few shows haven't been amazing. nevermind.

we joined foals in oxford on thursday as support at the first of their oxford homecoming shows. this was really fun. everyone was in a really cool mood, the show was great and the aftershow stuff was a blast. cough medicine DOES work as a mixer with vodka.

we're now 2 days into our tour with the ghost of a thousand. today is exeter. good food, ok weather, pleasant times.
