when all was quiet on the belly front
well hello & happy new year
we've been rested up over summer & will not be playing until february mostly due to our fav key-tarist antony breaking his hand. but the good news is I have a tan!
we'll be shooting a new clip soon for the next single being released in January & once everyones heard it we'll come show you all how we do it live.. it was a toss up between one of our most loved & energetic live songs that we've been playing now since 2007!! holy mother of dog, how am I not sick of it yet! and probably a more obvious single choice with its punchy beat and nice big chorus that has our distinct sound.. you'll get to hear them both over the coming months, but the single will come first followed by the album soonishhh after.
in other good news I've used summer to not only read a whole lot of books (angels & demons most recently, now to see what mr ron howard has done to it in film form) but also write new material, & its great to be fruitful & varied in the writing process at the moment. I feel a more focused direction & excitement after playing a majority of the tracks on the album for a few years now. We're already 10 songs deep into a list of new songs & just have to give most of them a proper demo.
so when all seems quiet, it's actually not! we're about 5 seconds away from smacking you in the face with our second single from 'by limbo lake'. a very gentle slap that we hope you enjoy & fills the rest of your summer soundtrack.
much love

update 101
so a few things have been kicking into gear lately (yup, cos i'm a heaps big 'car' kinda guy) and it's getting exciting again! orange has been getting great play on the j's and the finishing touches on the clip are being done as I speak and will hopefully be with you soon.. and next friday night we are going on tour to support it with the eulogies (from z USA) and so it will be our first proper run of shows for the year and hopefully non-stop after that..
we've today been nominated in the shortlist for the vanda and young songwriting competition for feel it leave.. niiice.. other things are happening behind the scenes and i must for now keep them in my little black book of secrets and stalking notes.
had an interesting but very enjoyable set at bathurst the other night too.. played close to 90 minutes which we hardly ever do seeing as our catalogue doesn't stretch that far!! but the people at charles sturt uni were celebrating and were very accomodating and also very drunk. a few of us had to go, a few of us got to stay.. i was one of them that stayed & I am now convinced, even though I was considerably out of it on free alcohol, that we need to update our rider requests.. (2 beers each, wine, water, soft drink).. but that's a story for another time.

meeting mr branson
A few weeks back we did a short set with the villians of wilhelm and dappled cities to celebrate the opening of the new virgin mobile metro in sydney.. mr richard branson was in the country to pick up one of his many toys, I think a yacht, and I am mega jealous of him as I'm sure we all are. If I could fly into a country and say 'I'm just here to pick up my luxury yacht' I would be so happy - yes, I reference south park reguarly -
anyhoo, off topic again here, back to the videos of the night posted on moshcam.. I'm gonna post a couple of the songs as they're from our debut LP due out Jan-Feb 2010 titled 'By Limbo Lake'.. yes it has a meaning, but not now, i'll explain later ..and yes, all hick-ups and mistakes are intentional, expect the record to be full of them! k
Here's trans/ending & paper flames for all those interested in what sort of a record we've been making..

I am sitting here, listening to one of our oldest songs realise itself finally.....ahhhh smokestar, you are dear to me.....and you sound fucking beautiful.....can't wait for you all to hear it.
Tomorrow we play in good old Newcastle, for the first time since december....wow, that feels really strange to have not played in our hometown for so long.....what arseholes we are....
tomorrow we will lavish our new babies upon the institution that is the cambridge....
gonna destroy the place.....if you come we can do it together.....blow the roof right off it....
so we are almost halfway through mixing....by this time next week our toils will be over and our debut album will be done. I can't wait....
"follow the water all the way down to the border, know that you and i are never growing old...."
nighty night.......TRENT. xo.
afterthought: maybe it is not too late too change our name to Powerful Creatures.....once the album is out it WILL be too late.....will sleep on it....
