Posting on the band's Myspace page Barrow wrote: “We’ve had our meeting with the label it was really positive....which makes the whole thing so much easier to deal with nice people...The tracks are in a right mess but sounding like a album for the first time in years they (are) a bit weird though. Its great its nice to think us old gits have a few tunes in us without sounding like coffee table Zero 7 – Moby - chill out shit!”
Since their last album, singer released a solo album, ’Out Of Season’, in 2002 with collaborator Rustin' Man.
