hear All these years of tweaking, poking and banging, and this is all we've got to show for it. All swag is 'released' on our Screaming Halibut label, which of course means that we had to pay for it to get done and you won't see it in the shops. Still, we like to feel that this imposes an air of bespoke exclusivity to the, ahem, 'product', rather than indicating an abject lack of interest from the music industry.
If you're discerning enough to actually want to buy some of this stuff, please email the Screaming Halibut Swagline and we'll get back to you.

Work in progress (CD album scheduled for 2002. Ah, no, make that 2008...) "Oh god not you lot again" [Studio engineer]
We'll probably bung on a few bonus tracks from the archives to make up for the delay. Mind you, it's debatable whether the tracks will actually be a bonus.
