Hello everyone
My son and I have just put one of our albums online on Bandcamp. If you're feeling like you need a spot of William Basinski style minimalism mixed with some post rock and a spot of SAW2 era Aphex Twin, you might enjoy a listen of the below:

It's chock full of pedal goodness

Thanks very much

I'll tell my son in the morning. He played the high pitched guitar on that one, the bass was my work.

Thanks, I never thought of the name in that way. The band name was my son's idea (he was 6 years old at the time and refuses to change it!) I'm glad you enjoyed it. I might put another album up soon, that one will be more rock... sort of...

Was able to listen to the first 5 tracks today. Sounds great. You and your son should feel very proud of this work.

Thanks very much, I'm so glad that other people apart from the two of us enjoy the music. I'll tell him in the morning, he'll be really thrilled

Thanks very much, I'm glad you liked it. I'll tell my son, it's one of his earlier works (I think he was seven when he drew that one) but I think it represents the chaos that we make when we record together so it seemed quite apt

Either that or just how much he loved wax crayons at the time!

Thanks, I hope you enjoy it - depending on how late you play this, some tracks will help you sleep and some will wake you

Thank you

the bass line in Liminal States is something I made half awake, half asleep very late after working too hard on my normal job... I just desperately wanted to do something creative before going to sleep and played it straight into the computer. My son added the higher pitched sounds a few days later (I think he used a capo and probably at least two reverb pedals, possibly an octave pitch up between the reverbs).
