Band MembersThe 'band' side of things is taken care of elsewhere - have you guys ever heard of Field Music? However, School of Language live performances have variously featured the talents of Doug McCombs, Ryan Rapsys, Peter Brewis and Neil Bassett. And me.

   About School of Language
David Brewis is currently busy with Field Music, so all School of Language activity is on hold for the time-being.

The first School of Language album, Sea From Shore, was released in February 2008 via Memphis Industries in the UK and Ireland and Thrill Jockey in North America and the rest of Europe.

You can watch the video for the Rockist Single here...

Hey hey, excuse the spam. . .



"blending low-level hip-hop beats with Scorn-esque bass and elonated guitar riffs to remarkable effect. . . it's that awesome. . . the music is superb, the artwork and packaging equally good. . . [it's] warped shuffling genius. 300% necro, foo'! (5/5)" (Zero Tolerance magazine).

Necro Deathmort's This Beat Is Necrotronic is released on Distraction Records on August 31st, but you can get your hands on it for FREE (on a 'if you like it, why not buy the CD?' basis) in all of its 320kps mp3 glory at distractionrecords.com!

Your show at Start the Bus in Bristol last year goes down as one of my favourite shows of all time (after Julian Cope and Love with Arthur Lee). I have since discovered Field Music and The Week That Was, who I hadn't heard of until listening to Marc Riley (prior to discovering his show my music tastes was going nowhere after the sad loss of Peel).

I have a page on Bebo that is dedicated to alternative/indie music old and new (including each of School of Language, Field Music and The Week That Was).

The link to the page is www.bebo.com/deadpopstars or just search indie and it's the only one that doesn't focus on the mainstream stuff they try to call indie these days.

Thanks
Mark
