It's amazing. Hope they haven't put all their best songs on the same EP and haven't left anything for the album, but I have every confidence that will be awesome when it comes too.
Agreed about the demo, I heard the promo and it's super super super, everyone should buy the demo, especially for the artwork (the tunes rock, I'm just saying why people should buy the real life music)
The perks of having mates wiv connections. (I'd like to add I got a listen, not a promo to take away myself so I'll still be paying dollarz when it come out like a good child)
i guess the barstaff see this every night. they're turning tables putting candles out, careless and tired. and all dramas are unstarted; came for the money, stayed for the community. and now the funds are tight and now we chose our sides. we make the same mistakes our friends might. we're floating streamers down down off balconies, scattered arcs across the city makes a new body cold. how you dont stop believing in the band because the band stopped believing in the band. careless hands and one night stands, where everything stands we were made of plans. backdrops set to falling stars does not describe what you are and god knows what you think of us. i'm losing ground to future ghosts, i know that we're good and i know that i'm close but god knows what you think of us. now we sleep crooked if we sleep at all. we squeeze our bodies into spaces when the spaces are full. yr blisters from our shattered arcs across the city, make a new body. now the pressures on and i still sleep alone. we barely notice when our friends are gone. we're lighting cigarettes to pass the time, coward dazed by the money, trapped by community. last hit for sure, once was enough. oh careless hands we were made of plans. fake reports of faulty heart does not describe what you were and god knows what you'd think of us. once was enough.
The Alcopop! birthday party on Mon 22nd Oct at The Social in London with Data.Select.Party and Dave House
And their track 'Cranes And Cranes And Cranes And Cranes' is on the upcoming Alcopop! compilation tape, along with Dartz, Jeremy Warmsley, Sam Isaac, Sky Larkin and about 10 more
The mini-album is incredible! Definite 10/10. It was so good I've legally changed my name to 'John Foreigner'.
Also, there is a hidden track at the end. Not sure what the name is, but it's a little acoustic number that shows a different side of the band.
Brilliant!
For that gig in London on the 22nd... How much is it man? Is it tickets and that or pay on the door? I haven't seen Dave House for ages doing a solo set so I'll probably swing by.
Not heard the new JF EP yet, but was really enjoying the stuff a while ago. The girl in the band used to be in Twist too didn't she?
indeed kelly did, though she has never actually told me the name of her old band tutt... Actually if anone can dig up an old twist record or two and point me where to listen to it ..mwahahaha
true story!
It's amazing. Hope they haven't put all their best songs on the same EP and haven't left anything for the album, but I have every confidence that will be awesome when it comes too.
When's
it out? or can anyone help me acquire it? They're so so good!
it's not out until the 26th November
I have a promo, but I think most of the songs are on their demo in various forms.
but the new recordings are so much better!
if you have a legit reason to get a demo, then I'm sure you could get one pretty easily!
i meant a promo not a demo
but you should get the demo too if you dont have it. You can download it from somewhere or other...
it's on their Myspace I believe
that's ace too - but this surpasses it.
i don't think
i ever got a demo from them :-(
unless it's languishing in that box alongside demos from bloc party, forward russia and prinzhorn dance school ;-)
see, what do i know anyway!
..
dude they have loads of songs saved for the album.. our bipolar friends, sometimes in the bullring, your all just jealous, bob fairfoull, anet mook.
loads.
