Our new music video for the song Chopchopchopchopchop. Thanks again to everyone who drunkenly shouted “CHOP” into our cameras at the Queen of Hoxton in Hoxton and at Cafe Saki in Manchester, and thanks a brazillion to DZ Greene (www.samu.co.uk) who has spent many an hour with a pen drawing jelly fish, axes, tumours, etc.

Also big thanks to Mr. Chivas De Vinck for telling me about the serial killer he saw on a beach when he was a kid, which inspired the song.

This song will be part of our new album which we’re currently recording, and should be our next single, once a record label shows up to the party. Hello!

Hey, here’s a soundcloud version, for people who hate their eyes or can’t cope with visuals:

Here is one of our new songs, Too Many Colours. It’s been a while in the making, along with four other tracks, recorded and produced by us and the delightful George Atkins at 80 Hertz recording studios. This song is a tale about mutants, bug collections, boat rides and Great Discoveries. My Mother helped write the lyrics.

This is the first song we’ve put up from the new recordings. Coming very soon is the new music video for our next single chopchopchopchopchop, and some other tracks too! I’ve been hard at work cutting out all 200 people’s heads who contributed in the video making, and duplicating them so there’s millions of them on screen. David Greene has also been busy creating inside-the-body animations so that there will be ample amount of eye candy for everyone to eye-vomit over.

In other news, we’ll be down in London this Friday (11th June), playing at the Macbeth in Hoxton, which should be a wild blast. I shall be wearing bones and glitter. See you there?

The video will be ready to view kinda soon, there will be a lot of animation and special magic inserted by our primo visualist DZ Samu. In the meantime, how about you have a crack on our Making Of Chopchopchopchopchop music video video instead? It features Lorien’s fingers wearing leopard print pants, dancing on a typewriter, coming on to owls, playing limited edition Shampoo Vinyls and playing a bass made out of toast.

Also, my ever-so-delightful girlfriend Fay provides lip service with a green screen face. Bless her cotton socks.

Features include:

• Everything is transparent so nothing gets in the way of your FACE
• Inspiring messages from your favourite pop stars when you put a block in place
• You start on a million points because your hotness deserves it
• No background music! This way you can sing your own version of the Tetris music which will be WAY better than the original
• Did I mention your face?

If it doesn’t work on your system, you might need a better system. Try it out full screen maybe? Maybe that’ll help. At least your general vibes will be bigger.

If you want to compare, or play along at the same time, then here’s the original.

Enjoy!

In other news, we’ve finished making a song about 1999. I was trying to find out what Ben had been up to in 1999, for lyrical inspiration, and it soon became clear that the only memory he has of that year was playing Golden Eye on the N-64. Literally, the only memory of an entire year. Actually, it got me thinking that, although we have countless moments from the past that we can remember, it’s actually quite difficult to pin-point what happened in what year- it’s as if we lose chronological sense of our pasts, and everything we’ve ever done swiftly becomes some kind of amorphous memory smoothie. I suppose this is heightened/lessened by the amount of weed one smokes. Anyway, we now may be the first band that sings about Golden Eye, with heart and passion. MAYBE.

Here is a bad ass tour poster I conjured up with my own two hands:
