Testimonials

True to our word (for once), this weekend we recorded two tracks with Umair Chaudry at Silver Street Studios in Reading for the split with Undersmile. As alluded to in previous posts, the tracks are ‘Yeehah!’ and ‘The Inexorable March’, which will feature Mike Woodman of Thumpermonkey Lives! on vocals (hopefully to be recorded within the next few weeks). Umair will be releasing the EP himself, and it will follow hard on the heels of a split between our friends Silent Front and Ivy’s Itch. More news about release dates for both of these offerings as and when we get it. Suffice it to say that we’re very pleased with our weekend’s work, and would recommend recording at Silver Street Studios and working with the eminently agreeable Umair.Caretaker
