An exclusive strictly limited pressing of 100 copies is available now from www.bettyandtheid.bigcartel.com or at our upcoming gigs. This initial pressing comes as coloured vinyl effect CD's in five different colours (Red,Orange,Blue,Green and traditional Black.) The album was recorded and mixed over a two-day period in December 2008 at Toe Rag analogue studio, Hackney, live onto Studer A-80 1 inch 8-track tape machine using a vintage backline and minimal overdubs. No computers were used in the making of this album. Betty & The Id were formed at the start of 2007 and began gigging in March of that year. Since their inception the group have gigged incessantly honing a formidable and intense live experience. In May 2008 the group released their debut EP, Neutron World. A few copies are still available from the groups website www.bettyandtheid.com The group currently consists of Antony Cook (Drums), Simon Maragh (Bass Guitar, Keyboards, Vocals), Allan R Murphy (Guitar/Bass Guitar) and Jim Smith (Guitar/Vocals) For further information on the group visit the website www.bettyandtheid.com For bookings contact the group at bettyandtheid@hotmail.com

HELLO - we hope you enjoy this video:

This is an excerpt from the feature length film "Die Son! Die!" by Miles Perhower in association with elementary productions, starring the glorious Miss Halliwell. It is a concept concert album.. a film and an album.. it is a concert and a drama.. it is real life and fabrication. It is about the stalker and the stalked. It is the realisation of one man's madness. The music is blistering, the visuals engaging: it is the most watchable piece of art today. This is more than music and more than film. It is the post-modern Purple Rain.
The Stourbridge Chronicle has already described it as "the most important milestone in cinematic history"; The New York Times' art correspondent said "If it was a hat, I would wear it"; Tony Wilson's ghost is reported to have whispered, "I wish I had thought of that". Entrepreneur and pop guru Alan Neilson wrote: "Isn't it great that Wispas are back."
DIE SON! DIE! will be on general release at the end of August 2009.
Best wishes from Miss H
