As well as the aforementioned 'The First Two Years' release due for March, we will also be releasing our second full length record this year. Currently very tentatively titled 'the goodnight vermont', all efforts are being made to see the record released digitally by October, with physical release to follow in 2012.
Throughout 2011 we will be in and out of the studio in Caerphilly with Chris Morgan (Midasuno/Accident Music). We already have four tracks down, everything is sounding great at the moment, Chris is a joy to work with and we're hugely looking forward to our following sessions throughout the year.
Writing for the second record really couldn't be going any better. Including the four tracks already recorded, we have eight full songs written and they're all sounding great. It's our first record as a four piece and things are coming together a great deal faster than they did for our debut record. Rhys' guitar melodies are blowing my mind, and Eddie's vocal abilities put my own to shame. The both of them have now been in the band for half a year and they've reinvented, revived and completely reinforced our sound. They feel like proper solutions now, no longer the new boys, i can't imagine the band without either of them. I'm pinching myself after practice, they're so good, and we're currently producing music of the likes i could only dream of having a hand in when i was fifteen. Whether these songs get heard by fifteen people or fifteen thousand people, doesn't really affect how strong i currently feel about the songs, they're each a joy and thrill to play, even to ourselves.
Songs in the running to appear on the second record include: House Of America, The Courage, Blank Cities, The Young And The Beautiful, The Goodnight Vermont, Gorgeous Horses and Lake Palmer.
