"this is a record i wrote over september and october of last year. the record came together from ideas i knocked about with whilst touring get cape. wear cape. fly. at times it has moments of splitter-induced cabin fever and tension, but i like to see it as a record that had a bit too much time to think. i spent a lot of time working with metaphors and parables to try to make sense of the current political climate, and the more time i spent thinking about it, the more confused i got and the more convoluted the songs became. taking the songs into the studio was a lot of fun. trying to make head and tail of the sketches was tough at first, chernobyl doesn't really rhyme with many things. in the end it all went down pretty quick, me and jay malhotra spent a few days trying to capture the late night lucid space of travelling with a bleakness of war. andy theakstone (drums) and jamie allen (bass) spent a few days with us at andy's studio (unit studios) in letchworth hammering out the band songs, catching the grooves and adding a bit of well needed release. a good mix from dean barratt and here we are.i hope you like the album." sam.
