Marcelle van Hoof played two of the songs from our upcoming album, Pantomime Hearse, on her 'Another Nice Mess' show yesterday! If you thought, "ooh, I like this, when's the album?", the answer is Monday February 2nd.

Keep checking back here, as the album will be available to pre-order shortly!

As for Marcelle, she's DJing the following dates:

9th January: ?, Rotterdam
16th January: Golden Pudel Club, Hamburg
23rd January: Pal, Cologne
24th January: Tsunami Club, Cologne
29th January: OT301, Amsterdam

Indietracks Christmas Twee was AWESOME! Thanks to everyone who organised it, watched it, danced on the train, or even just grinned a little too much.

I'm actually enjoying the Christmas period so far this year. I put it down to the lack of Christmas songs I've heard! I just don't like them.

Don't forget to buy your tickets for our gigs next week!

For our gig at the Royal (Derby) with The Wave Pictures and Red Shoe Diaries, CLICK HERE!

If you're coming to Indietracks Christmas Twee, CLICK HERE for tickets!

Both evenings include an excellent indiepop club night after the gig!!! Indietracks has a raffle and 'Secret Santa' CD swap too! That's a hell of a lot of good stuff to risk missing out on, so you'd probably better go and get your tickets ASAP. You've possibly just been paid so you're in luck!

P.S. On Dec 4th, a side project involving members of Mascot Fight will be playing at the Victoria Inn, Derby. This would be worth seeing too, probably. No tickets for this one, but if you're about, we'd love to see you there.

HERE'S TO A TIRING THREE DAYS OF INDIEPOP RADNESS: *clinks glass of much-needed champers*

Cars Can Be Blue have been added to the bill for Christmas Twee on Dec 6th. They're a quirky, poppy, punky duo from Athens (in Georgia, USA rather than Greece, I think...).

Sadly, Mighty Mighty have had to pull out due to unforeseen circumstances, so the bill is three-strong once more. At least we still have Phil Wilson - formerly of the June Brides - to look forward to.

As for the post-bands DJ, check out their MySpace page for a list of the bands you're likely to hear.

...and you can win our album in the raffle!! RADI-COOL.

Just reminding you all about the indiepop alldayer tomorrow at Lee Rosy's tea rooms in Nottingham. Advance tickets have sold out, but there are still a few tickets on the door, priced at 7 pounds (I really must change the American configuration of my keyboard).

Here's the schedule:

3pm: Frankie Machine
3.40pm: Gregory Webster
4.20pm: Pocketbooks
5pm: Mark Hibbett
6pm: Lardpony
7pm: Mascot Fight
8pm: Pete Green
9pm: Phil Wilson
10pm: The Bobby McGee's

Hope to see you there!
