New songs... getting out of town...

Home from touring and full of heaps of new passion for making new music. Been putting together a bunch of things slowly, lots of potential new song sections and sound ideas. So I'm heading out of town to the mountains to record and edit up my sounds and program some ideas, free from the distractions of city livin'.

So far there are 10 potential new songs. I've been putting the ideas into one of two piles, hoping to get enough for two 5 track EP's, with different but connected themes. So far so good. Getting 4 or so of these songs on the stage by the years end is my first point of call. Then following up the album with the 2 EP's as quickly as is creatively (and financially) possible.

The final mix of the album is nearly finished. So once we get that on the shelves, and tour, we can move on to a new, bigger, more eclectic sound. Ed has really changed the live feel of the band, and bringing that to the new recordings is a priority.

Thanks for sticky by us. we'll see you at Revolver, June 24th.
