Thanks for the add! I really enjoyed the Firebird show @Loud Park!! Hope you guys to come back to Japan for a tour 2010. For now, Good luck on the Sweden tour
Hi guys how are you? How is your tour going?? Here all is ok except the weather and we're releasing an LP, soon when it will be out we'll send you 3 copies! Hope to see you soon again...;)
Saw you guys at Damnation over the weekend after many years of trying to get to see you. You didn't disappoint. Hats off to your stand in bassist for the night, he did a great job. Personally, I think you were the best band of the whole day and should have had a higher billing and a longer set. The James Taylor song was a huge surprise :)
Thanks for making the weekend memorable!!!!
I was trying to find you guys after your set to say hi and get some merchandise from you but too much alcohol ended that idea. Please let me know how and where I can get my hands on some 'stuff'.
We've just added four new tracks to myspace completed at the Weekend, with Phil Innes at the controls. These are the first recordings to feature Alan Ibbotson on drums, and we are all really happy with the results. It's a shame that we've not been able to get back into the studio before this but we've been able to build up new material in the meantime.
The timing was perfect as we all went down with Swine Flu after the session, with Guy just able to complete the last vocals before admitting defeat!.
"Judgement Day" is a totally retro song with a very 70's (complete with cowbell) Bad Company-Free - AC/DC vibe with a storming solo from Guy at the end.
"I Know" - Very fast with a great hook - very unlike anything we've done before, a sort of punk/blues take on things - great vocal and lyrics. The opening section is from a German radio broadcast being picked up from Guy's heavily overdriven Peavey 5150 valve amp - can anyone translate? :)
"Chains" takes us back to our blues roots, with Guy sounding rather like John Lee Hooker in the opening section, before the song hurtles into a very Led Zeppelin style meltdown, complete with some suitably wailing guitar.
"Salvation" is a slowie with added Hammond! - some nice guitar licks too! - almost prog rock at the opening section (reminds me of Andy Latimer and Camel), before building around a very moody bluesy set of chord changes into some very epic choruses. Phil added the keyboard parts - and we got a bit carried away - sounded almost like "Highway Star" for a while - But Phil very diplomatically as ever got us back on track. We argued for weeks about this song prior to the recording - as to whether or not it made the grade - I'm glad we kept it!
