i know my mate is friends with the bass player coz the bass player in his band is the guys brother.

 

I know, my ex used to know the lead singers uncle :suspect:

 

And even if it was true, he used to go about it all the time and talk about 'cookies' nephew like he was a mate, although he's never even met the guy lol.

Scummy, Mardy Bum, Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts, and From Ritz to Rubble

 

.... Just a few of the songs that are going to make for an excellent album!

 

I wonder if they will over-edit the final versions

 

Hope not :loopy:

it is on the album.

 

fake tales of san fransisco and mardy bum to me are easily best on the album. The others i dont really care about that much, might grow on me though.

If anyone has heard of a young band called INME, I used to love them when they were gigging purely with demo material...

 

Then, within only 6 months, every song was over edited, stupidly processed and they became obsessed with flange/tremolo effects on their amps.

 

The album when released (Overgrown Eden) was ****. They had everything going for them :(

 

Well, Good luck Monkeys, and dont let your label bend you over.
