2012! We're not dead yet!

Hey, just checking in with an update to let anyone out there know we're still kicking.

End of 2011 saw us have to relocate our storage/rehearsal space and saw Knife Cutter go off around Europe for a bit.
We rounded off the year with a gig playing Nirvana's Nevermind in it's entirity as a birthday gift to our friend Mix-Up (and a treat for ourselves)
It was a blast.

But then we realised we didn't have any new music that we'd written ourselves in over a year that we didn't find re-hashed, forced or boring. So, we figured that's the most important part of being in a band and enjoying being in a band.

So since the tail end of 2011 we've not played a single gig but have now written at least 10 new tracks that collectively we're incredibly proud of and excited about. For now we're just carrying on doing that. Writing music. Concentrating on making music that takes us to new places and we're all digging.

Does this all sound like horseshit? Basically we got burnt out. We were not rocking hard enough.
Now we're getting back there!

OK, we'll be gigging again at some point in 2012.
James+Dan continue to take Knife Cutter to new places, Dave continues to fight the good fight in The Human Targets and the second we book our first gig it's going to be well worth heading out for!

In the meantime check out us being Nirvana:


And some fun had as Knife Cutter:
