what’s to say? there it is. the cover of 65daysofstatic’s fourth studio album, we were exploding anyway. simultaneously unlike anything we’ve done before and yet, we feel, very us. of course an LP cover can’t be entirely judged until you hear the music that goes with it, but know that it was made to try and walk both sides of that line. this is a record that will forever mean more to us than we can begin to put into words, so we hope pictures suffice.

album is out 26.04.10.

as many folk out there already know, 65daysofstatic are on their way to releasing their 4th studio album, we were exploding anyway. what they don’t know however is how incredibly exciting it is to have designed the artwork for the first single. released exclusively in japan on march 10th, the new cut is titled weak4 and is accompanied by a japan-only exclusive track, pacify.

you can purchase the release through their japanese label, here.

we’ve been featured on the digieffects website as part of a ‘user profile’ series they’re doing. we’ve been included because of our use of their awesome damage plugin in the documentary we made for 65daysofstatic last year. there’s a brief interview and a chance to watch the promo video we made for radio protector again.

here’s the poster we designed for escape from new york, the road movie we made for 65daysofstatic:

it’s a beautiful A1 (33.11 x 23.39 inches) screen print and currently only available from the band’s merch booth on tour. so check out their show dates and find yourself a copy.

kerrang! magazine this week features both a news item and a review of our 65daysofstatic road movie. we would post the review, but we don’t believe in spoiling things for people. see the movie first, form your own opinions and then see if you like what they have to say. in the meantime here’s their rad little news update on the subject:

here’s the promo video to support our forthcoming road movie starring 65daysofstatic. it’s for the song radio protector from their second LP, one time for all time.

we are extremely proud to be able to announce the forthcoming release of a long-term project of ours. since june 2008 we’ve been working in close collaboration with 65daysofstatic on a piece that captures what it’s like to experience their live show. 65DAYSOFSTATIC – ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK is a double disc set. it’s out on april 20th & you can view a trailer for it here:

we produced, directed & shot the second half of the set – a 75 minute film recording life on the road with 65, whilst they toured europe & north america with the cure.
