A new Thought Bubble record was released today. It’s an EP and comprises four new songs. Each quite different in their style and moods they might evoke, but somehow not, too.

A new painting. I’m calling this dazzling thing Capital Wow! It was also the name of a great band I was in, back in the early 90s.

It’s already been out for a few weeks, but word is getting around about ‘Goatshead’ by Brain Pills among the noise-rock networks! Alongside guitar brute Mike Vest and throat throttling vocalist Adam Stone, I made some big noises for this vinyl LP. You’ll find it on Bandcamp. Creepy Crawl Records.

So, we travelling up through #derbyshire and went swanning into the fashion café in #ashbourne All items are inspired by mainstream fashion houses - my Vivienne Westwood goats’ cheese & beetroot bap was nice, but I need a Kahn & Bell bondage baguette or maybe an Alkasuru satin soufflé

While Fran was having a wizened old artisan repair her sewing machine, in his rural hideaway, we went for a mooch about the Herefordshire delight of Shobden. All within a short distance we found lakes, a church, a ruin and an airfield.

There continues to be a lot of recording and mixing work going on for future Thought Bubble releases. The trouble is we seem to have amassed too much for an album alone.

I have a (currently) secret gig in Leek, lined up the end of January.
Hopefully, I remember to return here in order to update this teaser - otherwise it’ll be yet another outdated post about what I’ve been up to a few months ago, again.
It’s probably best to just keep an eye on my Facebook posts

Because I keep forgetting I have an account here, I tend to carpet-bomb Bluesky with a bunch of old news. There’s an album out by Brain Pills, which features me, thrashing away with Adam Stone of Pound Land and #mikevest nickraybould.bandcamp.com/album/goatsh...

A magazine advert for ‘Folding Space’ the new album by Black Tempest. I played on this - and am rather proud. There’s a rave review and a bit of backstory in the current edition of @electronicsound.bsky.social

#manchester about a month ago. I was up there, with my good mate Lazzo to watch the stage production of Graham Duff / Johnny Vegas sitcom ‘Ideal’. Being such a rural creature these days, I am obsessed with architecture

Here’s a drawing and design I did a while back, that’s now getting some traction. If you saw Marc Bolan - or even met the little fella, maybe get in touch with Spendwood Books and contribute a few words for a collection of recollections? #marcbolan
