In the run up to it's official launch, we shall be streaming one song per day from our forthcoming EP 'Rotten Kids and Haversacks'! Starting from Monday 24th August, each song will be available to listen for only 24 hours, and will be playable through an imbedded music player in our blog (link below), rather than on our myspace profile player. We hope some of you are looking forward to hearing the tracks! Here at COTC HQ we are rather excited about the songs we recorded with Robin and cannot wait to get them out there. EP Sneak peak!! - Cast Of The Capital's MySpace Blog | So, the day by day schedule looks a little like this: Monday 24th - Comiston Springs Tuesday 25th - The Witching Hour Wednesday 26th - Passing The Horse Thursday 27th - Crematory Blues Friday 28th - Tree Sleep Thanks! COTC.

Cast Of The Capital on stage 8.30pm. Maybe see ye there!! Steve.

DHC + COTC + touching makes for a great night! Every one, do it!!!!

hey paul, after you left, the women said there were no van seats maybe they were sold earlier in the day?

Also playing are Our Future Glory from Dundee who have been likened to Bloc Party and Arcade Fire. Our Future Glory on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads

Cheers Paul, we will be out around 3.30pm if thats ok? Thanks again!

Ok cool, thank you Mr Longhair! I shall look out for you. I appreciate you replying to my post, thanks Steve.

yeah? great, whats your name if you don't mind me asking

less than 100 pounds I reckon! I imagine I could pick up something like this (second hand) for that price: Pioneer A-209R Stereo Amplifier - Black: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo All i really need is a left and right line in (as I play my music from my PC) and a phono connection for a record player. I can't seem to find anything on the specs of my speakers I'm afraid. Cheers

Yo, Looking to purchase a new amplifier separate for my hi fi as my current one is on its last legs. I have heard that Pioneer do good amps for a decent price. Any one got anything they are looking to sell? Cheers

hello, We are looking for 3 seats to fit into the back of our splitter van. Something like the type of passenger seats you would find in a minibus. Ideally we want them to have seatbelts attached. Cheers Steve

Studio Progress... Part 1 Yo folks, We have been in the studio for 3 days now laying down drums, bass, electric guitar and some vocals. It has been ace fun. To make things even better, Matt recorded the acoustic track completely live in one take today...which was impressive to behold!! As usual Robin is doing an awesome job, helping us make the record sound as fresh and exciting as possible. This collection of songs is definitely a little rockier and poppier than our previous demos, so I advice you to get your dancing shoes ready!! If things go to plan, we should be finished recording in a couple of days time. Which unfortunately means back to work for all of us. Boo hoo. I can't wait for you lot to hear the new tracks. What has everyone been up to? Been to see the new Harry Potter film? It's superb. Our guitarist, Mr Watt, will disagree (yet he hasn't seen it, or any of the previous films for that matter. So really, he doesn't deserve to be listened to!!), but I reckon it's the best film of the year so far. Part 2 Well, our recording session with Robin came to end yesterday (actually it was this morning at 5.30am - Rob was still up mixing the tracks. He is a machine I tell you)! Although we'll miss nipping down to the studio each day, I can tell you that I could not be happier with the set of tracks we have recorded. The mix of pop, rock and epic (haha, yes!) songs is pretty cool...I hope theres something in there for everyone. The next steps are: send the tracks to Dave Collins in Los Angeles for mastering, have the artwork prepared, prepare for the launch on 5th September. Although we really are itching to let you all hear them...we can't just yet! Keep checking back though. Cheers for your support as always. Steve + COTC

Yup, they are fooking awesome. Can't wait to see them again.

Good luck dudes, you will have an ace time!! Dundee rulez. Steve.

Haha, yeah I have the K-Pax trilogy book which I have read a couple of times! Amazing. Probably my favourite book ever actually! Have you read 'The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat' by Oliver Sacks? Or 'Moondust' by Andrew Smith? When I am in the mood for atmospheric instrumental music, I usually listen to K-Pax OST American Beauty OST Bladerunner OST Metronomes 'Canoe' Metronomes on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads Tobias Hellkvist 'Sides' Tobias Hellkvist on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads EL-P 'Cannibal Oxtrumentals' - amazing instrumental hip hop but totally scifi El-P Presents Cannibal Oxtrumentals: El-P & Cannibal Ox: Amazon.co.uk: Music

I would also highly recommend the K-Pax soundtrack, by Edward Shearmur. Definitely my favourite film soundtrack. Its a little like Thomas Newman's American Beauty, but obviously a little more sci-fi and 'magical'!! Some of the tracks are really dark as well, its not all wonderful and happy.

Still for sale... 300 o.n.o

Yeah that'd be brilliant, if you come along make sure you say hi! It's meant to be an awesome wee festival...couple of folk I have spoken to said they much prefer it to Rockness!! Apparently the the Thursday night is great too, heaps of partyish events before the bands begin the next day.

Thanks mister! It would have been good to play T, but its all good... we are extra happy with being invited to Bella See you there?

If you are heading to Belladrum Festival in August, you will be able to hear two of these brand new tracks on the Friday, as we are playing in the Seedlings stage then... Festivals are fun!

bump bump bump! I need some money! any offers?

Sounds good, I hope it goes well
