"Remembering the vibe of our Electric Monkey Sessions recordings in 2014 we just had to go back to that same place and it's owner, engineer Kasper Frenkel.

Again, the eight of us, all in the same room, bouncing off each other, while Kasper captures the moment, adding a bit of extra flavour with his Lee "Scratch" Perry style dub set-up. Old school recording, a couple of takes for each song, some even straight to tape, no overdubs (well, hardly any…).

We're excited! We're proud of this album and anxious to play the tracks live.“
