Soft Skeleton will return again one day, hopefully before the year is out. We've always enjoyed doing it and we really are looking forward to getting it going regularly again like when we first started out, the reason for no new episodes at the moment is due to the laptop that was used to make all previous episodes is caput. Episode 11 was infact recorded some months back, a French Special with Hugues and Nick B., so get looking forward to hearing that in the not too distant future. There are also grand plans to get this off blogspot and onto a proper website at some point next year.

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.

Nick Jones and Nick Bannerman have started a new fanzine called 'Niche Homo' and is available to order here. It's about x10 more worth your time than any Soft Skeleton podcast.

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.
