The Tongster speaks!
A little update from Matt on the band's progress in the studio, first posted over on 'Marshals'...
"Sorry we're so tardy with this 'weblog' thing, we're somewhat busy, what with a second album to make and all. With regards to progress on that front, I'll keep it succinct - there's nothing worse than reading a band's running commentary on the recording process; 'Yeah, it's great - we're playing congas strapped upside down to the ceiling... best album yet... "experimental"... blah blah flipping blah,' and then it turns out more lame-arsed than a field recording of Fern Cotton slipping over a dog turd on her weekly shopping run to Morrisons on a wet Tuesday morning. Actually, that would be kind of funny. So let's just say the studio's great, we love Ireland, everyone is happy and the process thus far has been decidedly unrocky and free-flowing. Fun even. Who would have thought that?"
No sign of difficult-second-album-syndrome so far then!
In other news, Russell swam 20 lengths this morning, ate a massive breakfast, felt sick and then caused the accidental explosion of Gordy's head through the overuse of delay pedals.
