Steve Bromley This is a fantastic collection of songs, with both Thom and Adam at the height of their powers. Chotto Matte and Curious are highlights and were easily my favourite songs of last year. Favorite track: Chotto Matte.

I don't know a thing about you but I sure want to I do I was born across the world And now knowing I got blind spots It's not comforting I'd like to learn I'd like to share Do you wanna play? I'm sorry to hear that Maybe we can help I trust that two of you might make some tunes for us if we were in hell As far as I can tell I already owe you so much I'd like to learn I'd like to share At least I wish you good luck!

an american among the americans a musician among the djs is it culture if it wins ya street cred or is it culture as long as it pays i was banking on a ride on the easterlies i think that im on the right track there was nothing north of something and i left me there now im trying to get me back but my friend, its a place that i can never go again ill never go again swept up didn't touch my house but my city's disappeared exactly as we feared wont you open up your mind just a little more try to take in all that you see though the colors may be faded and your head a little jaded you can tell what its like being me when i saw you there at the aftershow i didn't know what to say until you tapped me on the shoulder with the butt of your knife and told me to lead the way

Don't save your breath I'm excited too Just like you Let's see it all And not call home til christmas This ain't a test I am serious You can be curious with me As far as I can see This is real

about

がんばれ! (GOOD LUCK!)

One evening, Thom texted me--

"Idea: lets make a split EP with our recent recordings, put it online with a pay-what-you-want and make it a fundraiser for helping Japan??? Came to me in a dream while sleeping on the megabus just now"

"Yeah dude, for sure! That would be awesome! We should definitely do that. We should put it out pronto too. The sooner the better."

So we did, and now it's ready, and

EVERY CENT WE MAKE IS GOING TO AMERICAN RED CROSS IN JAPAN.

In return, we'll provide these six tunes. Enjoy, people, and thanks very much.
