Join The Dots / White Splinter reviewed

Here is another as-yet-unreleased track that we are really happy with, called 'Join The Dots'. We think it would be perfect as part of a soundtrack to a film...all we need to do now is find the perfect film to go with the tune! Hope you enjoy it...

In other news, the lovely people from Losing Today have written a review of 'White Splinter'. Some of the nice things said include...

"A pristinely honed slice of glacial sculpturing, all at once mellow and detached yet forlornly set in an inescapable bitter sweet ache of faded hope"

"A beautifully consuming kaleidoscopic dream weave of feedback ruptures and raptures"

"A gorgeously opining gem of sun bleached effects pedal laden bliss out groove"

...but you can read the full review by clicking here. You may have to scroll down the page to find it, but keep going until you see the video for 'Broken' - it's all there!

Mark from Losing Today has also posted another quick piece about us here. Once again, scroll down to the 'Heading For A Fall' video. Sweet!

Heading For A Fall

White Splinter E.P.

The past few months we have been working hard on finishing our new EP - 'White Splinter'. There are a couple of tunes on there that some of you may recognise from our live sets, but there are also some new jams that we are really proud of. We hope you find it in some way meditative, transportive and beautiful.

The E.P. is available as a limited edition of 100 copies, featuring hand-printed sleeves. We set ourselves up in a tiny garage that had minimum air / maximum heat, and thermographed, spray painted, stenciled, glued and hand-numbered until all 100 sleeves were ready. Working in such close quarters with glues and paints resulted in several hallucinatory experiences and temporary numbness of hands. We'd urge everyone to work in similar conditions - particularly whilst the sun is out.

So if you would like your copy of the EP to arrive in a case coated in paint, smeared with glue and with a heavy aroma of aerosol - follow the link below. We advise you to play loud and inhale hard...

Alternatively, if you'd prefer to carry music around with you in your pockets - 'White Splinter' is available as a download from Amazon, Lala, ShockHound, iTunes, emusic, Rhapsody, Napster and imvu.

Our very good friend and ultra-talented film maker Lux has made the following video for 'Broken' which appears on the EP. Turn the lights off and drift...

Post-atp

We've been doing some recording recently for tunes that should hopefully appear on our next release. We're really hyped with the results and looking forward to sharing the fruits soon!


David and myself have just got back from The Breeders ATP at Minehead over the weekend. We had a great time - it seemed much more relaxed than other ATP's - maybe due to an older fanbase or something. The highlights for me were Holy Fuck on the Saturday night and Deerhunter on the Sunday. Bradford Cox shows such infectious enthusiasm playing Deerhunter tunes (and one song by The Amps!), I find it pretty hard to fault a guy wearing such a big smile.

On another note, I recently read a couple of interviews I thought I would share. The first was an interview with Ben Chasny from Six Organs Of Admittance posted on The Quietus and the second was with Will Oldham that was posted on The A. V. Club website. Will/Bonnie always does cool interviews and his comments on movie soundtracks are particularly interesting. They both make for great reading if you've got some time to kill during your lunch break...

Since Floating

This is a new track we've just recorded. Since Floating was completed after we'd recorded the tracks for our new EP, so it's kind of in limbo at the moment, waiting for a future release to come along. In the meantime, here's an early mix of the track…

Falling Out, Fading Down

This is a previously unreleased track from 2006.



Falling Out, Fading Down actually started life as a 30 minute jam, but in a move totally out of character for ea, we decided it worked better in a slightly edited form. The world isn't quite ready yet for the remaining 27 minutes. Maybe one day.....
