about

Recorded in my dark , damp basement from December 2008 -February 2009 in West London.

I had so many songs flowing out....so I really didn't want to shorten the album.Just wanted to put as many songs on as possible.

I used an old 1930's piano, old synths and used the keyboards drum pads running it through different guitar amps.
I really hate drummer machines in any shape or form....but at the time I knew no-one in London, so just had to work with what I had.
The Album was recorded on an old 1970's tascam reel to reel.That was forever breaking down...but we got there in the end.

It features two covers from two of my favorite bands as well- Husker Du and Grouch,
