Afternoons used to last forever. Stillness would pervade, a sense of sweet torpor punctuated only by the pattering beats of a BBC test card or the austere parps of an Open University module. Raindr…

Fun fact:

The new Balloonist album was intended to look like a CD release from the 1980s.

In order to do this, something approaching the 'correct' type of jewel case had to be sourced and all other components manufactured elsewhere.

Meaning all copies are being hand assembled here at Wayside HQ.

MENOWTHERETHEN 'No Fun'

West Midlands Edgeland Music

In their own words:

Maybe we are all haunted? Not by ghosts, but haunted by memories, by missed opportunities, by what could have been, by relationships lost, by fear, by memories forgotten?
Without an agenda or pre-thought MENOWTHERETHEN (Mike Rowley and Kristian Jones) have created an EP of beauty and pain, of loss and hope, of a shared understanding of growing up inside, but always feeling on the outside, of the Black Country, where belonging and not belonging become one and the same. Blending electronica and emotive vocals, familiar from 2019’s ‘Cease to Be Visible’ EP, ‘No Fun’ introduces live drums and bass, acoustic piano and brass to propel their sound to new heights, and depths. When physical manifestations of ghosts from the past revealed themselves unexpectedly and unexplainably, the EP took on a direction of its own and those ghosts can be heard here.
Maybe we are all haunted.

Just doing a little Autumn cleaning on the Bandcamp, gathering all the in stock releases together. So much has sold out. I might have a few things here and there to re-stock but some of this needs re-pressing I think...

Anyway, it's late, no one's going to see this, are they...?

'Soft Like Fire' - a taster of the forthcoming mini album (of the same name) from Geneva Drive, a beautiful offshoot from the much missed, mysterious Avrocar from Birmingham.

Like a melding of Flying Saucer Attack, Nick Drake and Depeche Mode but inhabiting a space all of it's own.

Cannot wait to get this out there...
