All the tracks are brand new recordings, produced by John
Goodmanson in Seattle earlier this year. Fight Like Apes
singer MayKay says – "It wouldn't have been right
to leave those early songs off the album, but it wouldn't
have been right to put the same recordings on. They were
always rushed jobs before, but this time we had the chance
to make them sound like we always thought they should".
FLA cohort Pockets adds – "We're the same band,
just with a stronger, faster, more unstoppable sound".
The album is available on Digipak CD,
heavyweight vinyl and download. The vinyl version includes
a bonus track – 'You
Are The Hat' which will not be released on any other format.
Fight Like Apes fans can download a free album
track – 'Lumpy Dough' by subscribing
