In December 2014 we finished tracking the second album. We really took our time with this one, rehearsing and refining the music for over a year; even the recording process spanned a few months. The first track for the new album was written nearly 3 years ago. In the time between commencing and completing, we focused on other things, both WK and non-WK related. We’ve managed to work on other smaller releases during that time and watch the new record grow in doing so.
We’re at a good place right now. As we wait for Jack Shirley to send us more mixes for feedback, we’ve written two new songs that will see a vinyl release via Permanent Record mid-2015. This is our first 7″, so we’re excited! There will also be a tape release through a small Mexican label that we’re looking forward to working with, and exclusive artwork per format, which has become a thing for us.
This weekend is Witchfest. We’re playing on Sunday afternoon at 14:30 and it will mark the first show of 2015 for us. We have a South African tour planned later in the year as well.
We’ll have more news regarding the new album shortly!
Thanks, as always, for the incredible support you’ve shown our band.
Here’s to the next 3 years,

With regards to what we’ve released, Soundless Longing is our proudest moment so far, in terms of songwriting and production.
We look forward to sharing all of our new music this year!
