Soft Skeleton #7.5: Halloween Special

Dudes, I wish I could say you're guna be creeped-the-fuck out by this show, I would have loved to have added loads of creaky door sounds effects and made our voices sound like demons, but I'm lazy and so what you've got is a pretty straight up soft skeleton with a fairly high quota of death metal and tracks about zombies and satan and such. Hugues of Broken Arm makes his SS debut and Kenny makes a return, spouting even more claptrap than his previous appearance in SS4. This special was meant to feature Paul Steere, whose idea it was to have this Halloween Special, he bailed but we still had access to the music he was going to play for you.

Also, apologies for the deplorable delay in getting a new Soft Skeleton up. I won't go into why there's been such a holdup but please be rest assured that enthusiasm for this venture is not on the wane and I can guarantee that new ones will go up at regular intervals; for the next few at least. I hope you enjoy this one.

Soft Skeleton #7

Recorded 15.08.08. Easily the most kaleidoscopic Soft Skeleton yet, with mellow chat between Nick B. and Mel, who makes her Soft Skeleton debut, clashing with some well raucous punk, rockabilly, psych, noise and unparalleled pop. Factoid fans: this is the first SS to be recorded outside the attic bedroom of 45 Brudenell Road, Leeds, and instead was recorded on the floor of Mel's lounge, though still in Leeds. This is also the first SS to not bother with incidental music during the speaking segments, although you may occasionally hear the odd fragment of a new Ashtray Navigations track that P. Todd was recording above us.

Soft Skeleton #6

The first Soft Skeleton to feature a female and also the first proper Soft Skeleton threeway - Nick Jones, Nick Bannerman and Anna Peaker teamed up for this episode with Anna being responsible for the majority of the ecstatic sounds to grace your ears during the hour and a half long session. Recorded sometime late May - sorry for the delay in getting it up, this one seemed to be totally cursed, with garagebands choosing to test my patience to the extreme. Check out Anna's art stuff.

Soft Skeleton #5

Nicholas Charles Jones makes his first appearance since SS#1, who, freed from the restraint of Bannerman's limited nature and this time joined by the more astute Conor Rickford, is able to flex his brain muscle to its more natural state. These dudes spend the whole time wallowing in their assumed masculinity, unabashed, their selections showcase two males at the crest of a testosterone high, never allowing their harebrained posturing to slip. For those put off by the nature of their prattle, you may be pleased to know that the next episode features a female, a first for Soft Skeleton.

Hats - cool indoors.
