Trojan Horse: Disciplining The Reserve Army

Trojan Horse are good. That's all you need to know. Here they are playing at a recent sortie South from their Northern stronghold.

Dale Crover and Coady Willis drum cam.

This is just great. I was lucky enough to see them support Slayer last year and my oh my it was helluvalottafun. Unison drums are the future. You heard it here first.

Don't look behind you!

Last Tuesday The Fierce & The Dead played a show at Westminster Kingsway College. Great show, great turnout, played lots of new stuff that people seemed to dig. As the show was in the college's theatre space this was the first time we were able to use large format projections. I knocked something together out of some crazy cult film loops and some images made for us by our friend and excellent illustrator Paul Hickman. In a million years I would never have guessed what a difference the projections would make. You could really sense that those in attendance became a lot more emotionally involved. Maybe because this band is instrumental it helped with having a focus point, who knows. This is something we're definitely investigating further!
Here's a picture. Looks good right?

Woop woop! Gig alert!

This is happening tomorrow night (May 21st) at Westminster Kingsway College Theatre, Grays Inn Road, WC1X 8RA. It's The Fierce & The Dead supported by the brilliant First. It's an early start, early finish show - doors at 6.30pm so come straight from work! And it'll all be over by 9pm so there's plenty of time to go to the pub and try and work out what you've just witnessed. Only a fiver in advance, £6 on the door. It's our last show for a while and we'll playing a lot of new stuff, really looking forward to it. Facebook Event Page. Tickets available here.

Gig alert!!!

I'm doing a show with The Fierce & The Dead on the 21st May. We're playing with a band called First. They're on first. I can see the whole Abbot & Costello sketch starting up! Anyways, here's the details - The Fierce & The Dead live at Westminster Kingsway College - May 21st

Long time, no blah blah blah.

Yep, i'm back. I'm sure you've all been terribly concerned in my lack of blogging, but fear not - the mack has returned, well for now at least. And if you're wondering where i've been i'll tell you - i've been busy!

I'll try and post some stuff up soon, but for now here's a quick plug for my adventures as a bass player in The Murder Barn and The Fierce & The Dead. On March 1st The Murder Barn will be supporting the magnificent Gallon Drunk at the Lexington in good 'ol London town. It will be one hell of a night so i'd advise buying tickets in advance, which you can get here.

And TFATD will be playing all over the shop in the next few months. Too many to list here so head over to the Shows page at the main website to see what's what.

As you can see, busy busy. 

Here's a video of Gallon Drunk to get you in the mood!

Speak soon yeh.
