Fine young cannibals - Yoyo Static.
Fine young cannibals - Yoyo Static.
Gotta love the Static. They're a proper art band that sounds different every song. Stephen's got a plan later on in the year to release a whole set of compilation EPs. I turned up as a rep for my band Balor Knights (we shall speak more of them later) and we were mulling over the problem of getting 16 bands recorded without bankrupting someone. So I offered to help out recording people and he got in touch in March.
Recording went like a dream - Static are one great band. Do not be fooled by Pat the drummer only being 15. He's a seriously good player. Their new fella Ben has a great voice too, really matches Stephen's. Of the two songs this time, Eating Habits is my favourite, I'm a fan of songs that have loads of layers and cool lyrics. On Life and All Its Luxuries, Jim brought along his enormous Vox Organ, which is an amazing sound. Bet this sounds awesome live.
