Trying harder with the substack x
Hope everyone had a good festive period, not too traumatic. I’ve been doing some arts and crafts - maybe you guys have found something nice for the christmas void also x
Final vocal sessions are happening in the coming days. i’ve been trying to find something to write about other than the boring obvious. it’d be cool to be sincere (i heard that’s back) - i’m pretty certain i’m a c**t now though, cos i find it self parodying. Sad boy chic hasn’t existed since the internet became self aware a million trend cycles ago. Unrelated - i’m really back into american girl by tom petty. If anyone knows the zeitgeist let me know and the album will be out the following monday. Did i ever tell anyone that we gigged with geese and cameron said (with his label’s champagne in hand) i was the coolest ever. shame they’re dead to me. (double kidding)
But seriously (…) we’re excited to get back to it following the holiday break. free show at the old blue last in february will be a busy one so maybe get down early. As usual i reckon some daft lads from goldsmiths will be camping overnight on great eastern street.
If you’re reading - thank you.
They’ll be things to announce soon, and the music we’re finishing up is very good in my opinion ((even if it isn’t quite to your taste (yet)). In the meantime here’s some HOTTTTTTTTTT takes from bendy about 2026.
Much love from Arthur x
