eat your parents Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 They're from Edinburgh, and you're right, they are a cool band, although I feel they owe a lot to Shellac. I would point you in the direction of Stuart Maxwell, if he were still alive on these boards, but alas he's banned.Last time I saw them was when they supported the Oxes in Edinburgh last year.

Guest Startex Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 senator recieved a grant from their local arts council to go and record that cd (amazing cd)Yeah, Scottish Arts Council coughed up, as they did for another Edinburgh band, 'Post Diluvian', a few months before that.By the way, Mr Albini didn't take any cash to record either band as he was 'between jobs' at the time.
