Fine Review From Folks At 412

A lovely positive review from the now defunct 412 Limited - which once upon a time was a beacon heralding all things new and exciting in the respective worlds of ahrt, fashun and musak - not least from a backscratching perspective (though they did call us all ugly, boo-hoo-hoo), have yerselfs a look!

Haranguing The Strange Boys

At a rather reserved but good gig nonetheless at the Arts Centre, it couldn't be helped to present the group with a souvenir of their time in England. Halfway through the guitarist noticed the thing and the dialogue went something like this...

Singer: Ryan would like to say thanks for the 7'' inch

Ryan smiles and looks nonplussed

Sax-Player (looking over): Whats that? The Violence at High Noon? They any good?

Crowd: Passable!

Strange Boys: .....OK then.

Records On Sale In Rough Trade

It's an exciting thing to have to fruits of your labour loins taken in by a establishment so tastefully excellent as Rough Trade, they even (without any coercion on our part) gave us the following glowing review:

a nefarious stew of bizarro, organ drenched surf garage, the violence at high noon's debut single is fuelled by frenetic energy. whilst there's plenty of youthful bile and enthusiasm here, there's also a keen sense of the weird and the canon - the track opens with the best freaked out hammond intro we've heard in an age, then stomps on from there. a great opening gambit.

Don't believe us? then have a look for yerself HERE

Make us look good and grab yourself a copy.

An Endorsement From Mick Jones?

Mick Jones of 'Strummer/Jones' Clash fame recently came up to Norwich to visit an exhibition that the art college had curated of various bits of his personal property - including a rather good record collection and a lovely telecaster from London Calling days. We managed to get a record into his hand and a promise that he'd give it a spin...

Perhaps not the most official endorsement... but then it depends on how you chose to look at things.

Single Released

The purpose of this vinyl was for it to be spread as far reaching as possible and to get it into the hands of folks that might appreciate it. As well as a slight sense of self satisfaction. This blog was set up with the purpose of people leaving their comments/hate/praise. We'd all appreciate your news and views. Where are you? Where did you find your copy? If I could put tracers in place I'd ideally have a big map of moving red dots - for the moment this will have to suffice. Enjoy and spread.

Ecological Records?

The tracks were recorded back in the summer of 2009 - only weeks before bass player/organist and 'general-despot-extraordinaire': Mark Johnson left for Siberia; where he has been living (or at least existing) for close to a year now. Recording took place on the outskirts of Cambridge in a shed hooked up to solar panels which in turn powered every aspect of the process! from amplifiers to mixing desks to effects and margarita makers and was produced by Mick Crossley of Flyte Reaction, Spooky Hi-fi and Sonic Ray fame! - highly recommended listening.

So, it could be said you have or at least have now been equipped with the means of possessing a genuine ECO-record! Also - the last we heard of Mark Johnson was that he was working for an NGO in charge of preserving Lake Baikal - largest freshwater lake in the world - so dont say we never gave anything back!
