fucking fantastic.... fuuuck ! i know what's it's like seeing a band an unexpectedly being overwhelmed, if you can do that to people in the crowd, so amazing, you can go on about making music being selfish i 'do it for me' but stuff like this, it's so awesome getting that response, big motivation boost !!

Have the cd's been shipped yet? Mine hasn't arrived. If it's not been delivered today there's a risk it might be returned to you as i'm off to South Africa for 2 and a bit weeks tomorrow - the Post Office will only hold it for a certain amount of time before returning to the sender.

No probs, in fact it's good that mine hasn't been sent - would you be able to hold onto it for a week or so and then post so that it doesn't end up getting returned to you?

Something that just occurred to me. Is the artwork for the album a representation of the band's name? The black background obviously for Black and the grey band representing an I for International?

it isn't often i go back to an album so soon after i've listened to it as much as i have..
(especially considering the amount of music i have, and get sent to me every other day)

but this is back in my rotation. i'm really digging it. great work man.

Mark- no worries, i'll hang on to it fo sho. I hoped to get them posted out last saturday but it didn't happen. The artwork just kind of came out like that, there was surprisingly little thought put into that part of it, and the digital image is just a rough representation of what the cloth covers look like. I think it's quite nice though, stark and simple.

Jim- cheers pal, it makes me happy you like it. Your CD arrived yesterday apparently, good to see someone's on their game when it comes to posting stuff out!

you don't need to break the seal, just slip the ribbon off. use a bit of card to get it back on, etc.

surprised they came so quickly, it was almost 5pm yesterday when i posted them.
