Guitars are probably one of the best and worst parts of being in a band…

Best because they’re awesome and produce the music (which is pretty important)

Worst because they’re always breaking. Well for us anyway…

There are 3 guitars in my life.

These:

And soon to be:

One day I’ll have it. I promise.

KABOOM!!!!!

This saturday-that be the 14th, we Fearless Vampire Killers will perform at the O2 bar academy, islington.

We would be so, so, so, very happy if you attend and we promise a free hug to anyone that does.

About the Ware Shark. I bought a far better model- The Owl Bear.

We of ‘fvk’ are travelling to our hometown this evening to stay for two consecutive nights, and i must say we’re all very excited!
our van ‘Subo’ will be guarding the flat as we travel national “express” :s she deserves a rest after all the hard work she’s been given.

who likes presents?

A faqt!:

Contrary to popular belief/hatred we have been very busy boys. lot’s of our ideas are forming physical  shapes and obnoxious colours now and as a result have an awful spot filled with treats to burst over your faces soon!       i really want to tell, but have been sworn to secrecy for now.    it’s all hard work, but is making for sweeter play time!

Listening to:  He is Legend: It hates you

laying down the guide tracks to palace in flames…

This weekend we start the monumental undertaking of recording Palace In Flames. I know that sounds overdramatic, but it really is important. My little brother, (who’s in a “math rock” band) told me we had to get the chorus perfect! He said it as if he thought we couldn’t, but still had the hope that we might.

I’m sure we can.

Last night we murdered the song, playing it over and over, until drews voice caved in our time ran out. We really want to be a band where our fans always know we are going to be proper good. Every show we play has to be amazing, passionate and together; bands that just turn up and expect to be adored don’t deserve an audience.

Now slightly off topic. Clumpy shoes are really cool; don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Anything you wear that people say they don’t like, you should wear with a vengeance, because that’s how fashion works, people hate things because they’re different, but being different is cool, soon everyone will be wearing clumpy shoes. Like so…

Until my next letter or never…

After careful consideration (reading a grand total of two books) I have decided that South American literature is the best. One; because it kicks the ass of British rationalism, and two; it almost always has a scope so grand, it makes you want to bugger off to canudos and live as a religious outcast in the splendour of an arid desert in Brazil.

However that has nothing to do with what i want to talk about.

What i want to talk about is the future of this band, and to let you guys know whats going on with down in the razzled world of fvk.

Well the good news is; (and there is only good news, so if your sticking a round for a nice slice of despair, unfortunately we’re all out, though if you head over to bbc news, there’s plenty up for grabs amongst their well-formatted pages) We have a van! *trumpets sound* and we’re planning on seeing every truck stop in Britain, as soon as soon as possible. We’re also writing an album, and though we don’t know when it will be released, we are planning to write far too many songs so only the best can end up on the album. J

I guess before that though, we’re going to record a bunch of songs just to document how we sound right now, but more importantly, how we sound live.

P.s Kizzi (A mate of mine) hasn’t been herself today, even though I mentioned how slim she looked. Does anyone know a remedy for lazy, moody girl syndrome?

Until my next letter, or never…

Always the one to post the band stuff. Well I guess someone has to.

We’re quite pleased as we’ve been asked to take part in a process whereby a website tries to break a band into the top 100!

The website is called band republic. There’s 7 other bands in the running, and yes, this is where you come in.

Go here: http://www.bandrepublic.com/votes.php

Sign up and vote for us. Then we’ll get big, and you not only would have helped, you would have found us first!

Genius.

We love you.
