English Electric

Moray and I attended the Sunday afternoon performance by Big Big Train, a band rarely seen in the wild, on the 16th. Well, Moray did. Muggins here was stationed strategically behind tables full of lovely, lovely merchandise, not only so people could not get close enough to experience his horrifying ugliness, but as additional retail whirligig of The Merch Desk. But I'd been there all weekend, so nyah.

Yeah, so the gigs themselves were excellent, but we hijacked the occassion for our first, official photoshoot!

...OK, so we were enthusiastic. A second attempt was slightly more respectable...

Makes you think we should get a move on and make some more crazy-ass music., eh.

Release, Release

 

Subject To Availability and Diatryma And The Terror Birds are released! Sort of. While we wait to figure out a deal with someone, we figured you might as well hear what these two at least sound like. So, they are streaming over on beloved Bandcamp. Stay tuned for actual release info!

Happy Birthtime, North Haversham! What In The Hell!

Where In The World

Where In The World (Cover A)

Where In The World will be the first North Haverbrook release. It is an EP, which in this case, stands for 'evolving play'. We're going to have fun with the digital format and its lack of constraints, so it's going to become the host title for any odd tracks or singles that may appear over time. Right now, there are three tracks ready to go (we're just waiting for them to be mastered) and two more demos that will hopefully get completed somewhere down the line. The three tracks to kick off the EP (and, indeed, the band itself) will be:

1. Squonk
2. Subject To Availability
3. Diatryma And The Terror Birds

We don't know if we'll actually be legally allowed to let people have Squonk in some way as it's a good ol' cover version (and quite a different version at that), but we'll see. It was fun to record in any case! An early version of Subject To Availability can be heard here (we've reworked a few things since then) and as for Diatryma... Well, just you wait. Personally, I can't wait to unleash that one.
