Ahead of the release of our debut album, we’re giving away a track for you to download, absolutely free!

You can listen to ‘What You Want/What You Need’ on the player below, and if you like it enough to want to call it your own, stick your name and email address in the box to the right, and download the mp3 to do with as you wish (it’s high quality, naturally).

‘What You Want/What You Need’ is drums, arguments, triumphant school kids, The Cardiacs, loneliness, grappling guitars, almost a guitar solo! Gang vocals, those drums again. Sorting your brain out, a little bit happy, a little bit sad.

The video (below) was directed by Mark Duggan (the chap behind ‘Halfway to Heartbreak’ and ‘Shotgun Valentine’

yesyes!

Here is another video of us acting like children x

Hello!

Last weekend we ventured 2 hours up the old M1 to Leeds to record our next single with Whiskas (Forward Russia, Duels) at the controls. It sounds freaking mental, cant wait to get it out and about!
Mook studio was brilliant, Whiskas was a demon at getting sounds and ideas and we had a bloody brilliant time. hurrah!
Keep yr eyes peeled for the release date and impending tour, soon!
Peace. ryanx x x x

Hello You!

NEW You Animals video diary installment on youtube now!

A couple of weeks ago, us animalz flew out to Milan to play a show at The Rocket with ace Italian band ‘She Loves’.
It was IMMENSE fun!

Whilst we were there, MATT exposed a previously unknown encyclopedic knowledge of Michael Jackson, STUART found a fellow Smiths enthusiast, Martin had blistered feet after apparently ‘grafting’ carrying all the gear, LIZA wanted to party FAR after everyone else had fallen over, MARK somehow met someone from Derby and found new skills as an early hours, illegal, smoking barman, and RYAN was quite scared of flying.

ENJOY!!

Hello!
This another little video made from stuff found on cameras that we filmed around xmas/newyear. We went to Paris to play a show at La Fleche D’or and stayed around for a few days to hang out with friends and stuff, did a bit of writing during the MAMMOTH (but picturesque) drives and got lots of noisy new ideas together. When we got back we went straight into the studio to record it all down before we forgot it all forever. The music you hear is bits from a few of those songs!

I love making these dumb films but dont often get any footage from shows (apart from me majestically falling over at the Courteeners Academy show!) so if anyone films anything from gigs or whatever, drop us a mail and we’ll use it all up like greedy pigs.
