The album is nearly finished, just making a few fine tunings and adding the odd few bits and bobs here and there. Its been good and we've got (in my opinion) a pretty sweet album on the go here. We were going a little bit crazy a few days ago, just forgetting what day it was and what the hell we were doing. Things have been a little more clear since we've started mixing thankfully.
The owner of rough trade shops, nigel came round the other day with his son and his son's mate to have a listen. Its nice to meet kids who are into the band, i think our songs are quite easy for younguns to get into. Apparently my sister in law uses porcupine or pineapple to explain phonetics to her primary school kids. Just the verses of course. It was the least we could do for nigel after they so kindly made our album their top record of the year in 05. Here's hoping for two in a row! When it comes out (im not sure when yet) you all HAVE to buy or order it from the good people at rough trade shops. I'll put a link up to their site on ours soon. Id further like to clarify for everyone that the shop has no affiliation with our label of the same name, so there's no fixing involved. The list is based on sales and returns and also a staff vote.
Its also a bit cooler this week, a blessing really as we can mix without the noisy fans on. Stuart (sycho) Sykes is doing us proud. Starting to think about artwork etc... any ideas would be warmly received, but not necessarily used.
Best get back to work
No peacocks to report this morning either
