You're gone, but not forgotten. A bit like the charming Britta, who has left us due to work commitments. She's not forgotten either.

Any drummers out there who would like to, well, play drums with us? We'd love to meet them!

Ciao,
Vince.

Yay.
Finally got this one out!


SUNKEN.- 'Eye Electric Organ, Brain Electric Nerve'.
Deep in the swirling depths of the ocean a terrible yet wondrous beast stirs slow but sure amidst great forests of sea algae. Taking on the form of a pair of conjoined drown-ed sailors it sets forth upon the currents determined to loose its apocalyptic vision upon the earth via droning sea shanty and great humming hymn.
Sunken is the duo of sunken sailors Stefan Neville (Pumice) and Antony Milton (Nether Dawn/A.M etc). Using a range of organs, sonar gear, live tapeloops, vocals and an unhealthy amount of submarine reverb they create a glorious droning pop noise. 'Eye Electric Organ, Brain Electric Nerve' follows on from their acclaimed self titled debut (also on PseudoArcana) and various compilation appearances.
You can hear a sample from the album here.
CD. NZ$20 (post incl)
Visit www.pseudoarcana.com for details.

Cheers Dukes for everything. Seeing you guys was bittersweet, knowing that (possibly) no one will ever witness it again. All the best for the New Year and all your new endeavours!
