Hello! Technophobes are on a bit of a holiday from gigging at the moment. Big things are a-happening though, and it turns out they're in the middle of recording an album, for release some time in 2009! We think summer-ish! Until then, they'll be playing the odd gig here and there.

Hello caps any word on this new album - I mind thinking you were maybe destined for greater things when you played Pin Ups back in...August 2007 (yes it really was that long ago!)
Yes you read right this will be the second to last chance you have to experience the chucklesome multi media electro-nic obsessed wonder that is END ofTHE month CLUB. We've decided to take a break as of the 7th Birthday (but more of that in Feb).
This month we present two damn fine guests in the form of the wonderfully named FUTURISTIC RETRO CHAMPIONS. Who live up to the promise of their name, three girls and a boy from Edinburgh producing the most perky electro pop. Just what the EOTMC ordered.
Also making a return after ages in hibernation are Motherwell's APHRODISIACS with a new line up that has more synths n machines for beats and that was a direction we a glad to join them on.
Plus your decisive hosts BOZiLLA shall pay tribute to Stooges, Ron Asheton, Fantasy Island host, Ricardo Montolban, not a number except for being the first Edward, Patrick McGoohan and the artistic legend and cravat rocker, Tony Hart.
speaking of who if you would like to add a picture to our tribute gallery please upload to our comments here or e-mail it to mrbennet at eotmc.com. Please include the title and your name & age in years and months.

Thanks again class 3b for coming along for your recital last night. Skool is now fully dismissed for the summer. Time to stock up on ginger pop and out door fun.
The old monthly meeting of spanners is upon us once again.
Friday 27th June at Basura Blanca, Brunswick Hotel, Glasgow, ten till two..
Onefuckingpound as always, a selection of tunes that your granny wouldn't like and visuals from our man in the east end: the mighty Vitascope. Plus yet another strictly limited 'Sound the Alarm' badge featuring artwork form the aforementioned Vitascope.
If that ain't enough you can shove it up yer arse.
"bring back driving instructor!" an angry mob shouts.
The technodudes sit down and contemplate this rather prolific request. They all come to the conclusion that with its catchy bass line and it's quirky lyrics that it's a wise decision.
And that's the story of how Paul convinced everyone to bring the song Driving Instructor back.
