It's been a week since our last.....post.

We're still chugging along with the new album. These things always take longer than expected, as there is always more to do. There's always more mixing, more tweaking, more mastering, and more ideas.

But it's all good. In the end, we need to be happy with the end result and that's what we're striving for. And we are trying our best to get this all done in the next month or so. We're trying to use the quote below as motivation.

"Art, like morality, consists in drawing the line somewhere."

And we're trying to use this next quote as motivation for you (the listener) to buy the album when it's done.

"Good art is in the wallet of the beholder. " :)

You can check out some of the new material off the forthcoming album by following the link below (and attached):

Ghost and The Train

The rot is deep inside
Chase the ghost and the train
The track remains
You climb so deep inside
Deep into the open arms of the dragon's veins

When the world is chasing you and you're courting twisted views
There's only one thing to do

Stow hearts away
And remain where they'll find you
You and only you have it in you

You drink the glass half full
You see yourself in the round of the mirrored face
You're forced to take that pill the bitter taste of the pure in salvation's drawl

When your tail keeps chasing you and the walls obscure your view
There's only one thing left to do

Stow hearts away
And remain where they'll find you
You and only you have it in you

Headlines and Deadlines.

Goddamn it's cold in Jozi today! I'm sitting wrapped up Eskimo style warmed by a gas heater circa 1980 and my lap warmer "Molly" (the house kitty!).

So yes! We're busy arranging the second phase of our artwork with our good friend and design guru Marc Barnard. We're really excited to show y'all. Watch this space! :)

We're also really excited about getting our latest album out- it's almost there. The last push so to speak! We're anticipating a final master early September with loads of shows around Jozi and the rest of SA! We've got a great new live lineup together which we can't wait to show off...

Keep an eye on this blog for more mugshot details (enter JAWS theme tune).

Love!
