The View celebrated finishing the recording of their fourth album by downing shots of flaming sambuca at a bar in Liverpool.
The Scottish quartet have been recording ‘Cheeky For A Reason’ in the city’s Motor Museum Studios with Arctic Monkeys producer Mike Crossey, and is scheduled to be released on July 2.
The band posted this tweet, alongside a short video clip of a barman lining up the shots, on their Official Twitter:
Last night in Liverpool … The record's now recorded. Anyone for a drink???? http://t.co/GAakJY6Y
