BRAND NEW EP - STRANGE FILM

We made this record between 2019 - 2023. It took us many re-writes, re-recordings, re-mixes, re-masters and re-spends to eventually say what we wanted to say. 

The themes in this music are definitely a reflection of those years whether it be in terms of loss (creatively and or financially), anger, anxiety, insomnia, change (for better or worse), depression, extreme right and left wing bullshit or the death of loved ones. 

Although it seems that there are many painful feelings and themes expressed above, we still wanted a positive thread of hope going through it with a strong sense of humour and exploration. 

Bottom line is, we genuinely loved making this music. We hope you enjoy it too and that it speaks to you in one way or another. 

Thanks so much to everyone who was involved in the making of this record:
