Soylent Chiba Very pleased to have this series of Splangs to match my Splangle.
Awesome, unfiltered insanity blowing the concept of solid state genres right out the goddamn window. Favorite track: Splang #2.

about

Over the last year of Bandcamp Fridays I have released full albums, EPs, a couple of compilations of demos and rarities and even a second 10 track album all about Donald Pleasence. It's been phenomenal and tons of fun.

Our last album as a band, I've Been There, was the pinnacle, featuring some of my favourite and personal best songwriting and the greatest collaborators and musicians, I could ask for, playing on it.

That came out in March, and has proved to be our most successful album yet. How do you follow it up? Well luckily I had to give April a miss as I was moving home and then, when Bandcamp announced another BC Friday on May 7th I thought, well I should do SOMETHING.

But what should I do? and why?

Well firstly - deadlines are good, they kick our bum to do something, even if it's ultimately imperfect, we get it done, put it out and move on.
Also we have the technology, we have the ability and we have the platforms. We live at a point in history where getting stuff out into the world is easier than ever before and before you start grumbling about streaming services not paying artists enough, while you sip a $5 coffee, wearing a 75$ flouncy hipster scarf, this is Bandcamp and if you all cared so much about what artists were getting paid, you'd support more than you do.

Anyway, back to the album...

So what I did was do something which is entirely for me. It's silly, weird, experimental, rough, scrappy, maddening and fun. I went back to my days in my bedroom as a teenager recording any old bollocks into my 4 track machine and decided to do the closest I could get to that as a 40+ adult.

This album will not be for most people and no one would ever follow up their most successful musical endeavour with something this ridiculous but I did and I care not for your judgements or opinions!

Who are we kidding, no one is reading this.

Anyway, lastly, what is Splang?
Listen and find out - this album has all the clues you need to find out.

Miscellaneous Plumbing Fixtures New Milford, Connecticut

Songwriting and banging your instruments together

The main thing I love to do is write songs. I pick up various instruments from ukulele to piano, accordion to percussion and electric guitar to harmonica and bang them about to try and get close to the noises I hear in my head but the writing comes first. ... more
