dAn – main priority at the moment is to get the album finished, then we’ll be working on merch plans for next year. Definitely something we want to see happen.

Some day your prints will come

I’m going to sidestep the “favourite” question for now, as I wouldn’t even know where to start.

I don’t mean to go on but is there still plans to start selling Crooked prints on the website in the future? I’m keen to fill space on my walls. Only have Galatea Of The Spheres and photos of my kids.

Cheers!

Sarabian – glad you’re enjoying it, thanks for the donation.

Good suggestion about making them available as torrents, but we’ve chosen not to do that for a couple of reasons. Firstly, the web hosting account that we use has more than enough capacity, so it’s not costing us any extra. Secondly, if we centralise the downloads then we can track numbers, which is very important for the band at this point in time. With a decentralised torrent we’d have no idea how many people are downloading and where they were coming from (i.e. referring link).

This is my favourite EP yet – it is hard to pick a favourite song from it actually – I clearly need to listen to it some more (although last.fm claims I’ve listened to it 10 times already)

Glad to contribute to your charity

Would the various EPs me available as a torrent, so others can help out with the server download costs ?

Brutally honest, but not loosing passion and with such a charming playfullness.

Lovely melodies and yeah the sound is getting richer i think

there is a lot to be said for wandering around kent recording things. i’ve spent quite a few nights in the fair city of canterbury randoming switching on a old dictaphone i had in my coat pocket. the more pissed i got the odder things i started to record. in the morning i would listen back to hours of me getting drinks at the bar, talking to strangers, getting on bus and going to cash points.
i meet dean a couple of times thru a mate of mines band called onlookers who he was sorta managing a while ago. after they point out mr. crook in some nme article i got accidents and was hooked.
sorry for the rambling

My (1st) question is a sTrAnGe one…

Why, when I listen to Staghead & Monster, do I always think of the film Falling Down starring Michael Douglas? :}

No. The TNT versions were recorded during a live session in France before I started work on the first album ‘Accidents…’.

The Fisher Price demos date way before all of that, and strangely enough, if I remember correctly, I scrawled ‘Accidents Occur Whilst Sleeping’ on the handmade cover of that first demo, that same one that ended up in the hands of Dean Fragile (TNT).

Are they the versions on the initial TnT demo CD (bottom of Releases page)? (Fisher-Price is a kids' toy manufacturer, in case anyone's not heard of them.)

I have many cassettes full of recordings. Just after Bonzai Reservoir split I spent weeks on end wandering around the Medway Towns with a portable Fisher Price Recorder. I began making records of almost everything. The blueprint to ‘Accidents Occur Whilst Sleeping’ was unknowingly being written, so that period of time and that little machine has a lot to answer for. I guess the ‘official’ Fisher Price recordings would be the 3 tracks that got me signed. I believe that includes the original versions of Lucky 6 and Matilda V. Not sure what the third track was, or where any of that material is now. Such a long time ago. Innocent times.
