Well it finally happened. The planets aligned, and we managed to get enough members of The Menagerie together in the same room for long enough to film a video for a track from our forthcoming album Hopeful Monsters. It was a bizarre and emotional experience, one, because I’d never filmed a video for a track before, and two, for the evening we were shooting my part, I was burning up with some hideous fever. Still, its gonna be mad interesting to see what the end result is. Needless to say, as soon as I get anything, it’ll be up on here.

October 30, 2011I’m not one for Halloween, hence I’m not on this track, but a couple of my fellow Menagerians are, and as this track hasn’t made the cut for the forthcoming LP, its up for a free download, should you want to add it to your hard drive. This sombre track features Teej, Jon Clark, Elemental and Baba Brinkman.
The new Menagerie LP Hopeful Monsters is in the process of being mixed and should be dropping real soon.
