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. :thumb:

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).
