“Keep Warm… with the Warm Digits” is our first album and it is OUT NOW on Distraction Records of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, on deluxe double gatefold vinyl and download.

You can mail-order the vinyl (with download card) here and here, buy a download via Bandcamp, Amazon or itunes, stream it on Spotify, or buy it in person in Newcastle at RPM and Beatdown.

Hear three songs from the album over at Soundcloud, or watch a film accompanying “Weapons Destruction” here.

Andrew Weatherall says it’s “machine funk kraut-a-delia. It’s rather lovely!”. The album gives you ten tracks of metronomic rhythms, snowstorm guitar and radiophonic electronics; taking our cue from the hypnotic repetition of Neu!, the textural overload of My Bloody Valentine, the glacial otherworldliness of Emeralds, and the sensuous modernity of cosmic disco. There are hints in the mix too of Eno, Giorgio Moroder and Holy Fuck, along with a pinch of Brian Eno-esque melody. Get to it!

Tracklisting:

Warm Welcome
Keep Warm
Trans-Pennine Express
Weapons Destruction

Pre-orders for “Keep Warm… with the Warm Digits” are being taken now!

It’s out on September 5th, but you can pre-order from the Distraction Records website and bandcamp page NOW for only £11.99 (+ £4 P+P UK, £6 Europe, £8.50 RoW)!

Orders will be despatched a few days before release day.  Orders via bandcamp are a quid more expensive to compensate for their cut, but you do get a bonus track – Happiness is a Warm Digit  – as part of your download and you get Weapons Destruction to download right away!  Oh yes, and each vinyl will come with a download card, as all vinyls should do these days.

You can now hear and download three songs from our forthcoming album on our Soundcloud page or via the player on the right.

We are very excited to tell you that our debut album, “Keep Warm… with the Warm Digits”, is now ready for release.

“Keep Warm” will be released on double gatefold vinyl and download, on September 5th, on Distraction Records.

The songs on this record developed our of our totally improvised early gigs, gradually coalescing into a set of crisp, propulsive pieces. We aim for a brew of metronomic rhythms, snowstorm guitar and radiophonic electronics, dual-laptop electro, swathes of no-wave guitar and frantic free jazz drumming; taking our cue from the hypnotic repetition of Neu!, the textural overload of My Bloody Valentine, the glacial otherworldliness of Emeralds, and the sensuous modernity of cosmic disco; there are hints in the mix too of Eno, Giorgio Moroder and Holy Fuck, along with a pinch of Brian Eno-esque melody.

We’ll be posting more about the record including films and downloads in the build-up to release. We will also be playing a launch gig in Newcastle-upon-Tyne followed by dates around the UK, details of which we’ll post here when we have them.

We just discovered that our Warm Digits remix of UNKLE’s “Natural Selection” is now available to download from Itunes, for the recession-busting price of 79 new pence, for anyone who missed it first time around. (It’s Track 11 from “The Answer”.)
