Forgotten How to Talk by Jack of Speed

  • Indefinite Hiatus - but new EP still to come

    So our last gig with Dan was last month, and we had originally planned to soldier on, for the next few months at least, with a new drummer. However we have since decided to call it a day for the time being.

    Due to other commitments, people wishing to travel etc. Jack of Speed will be on an indefinite hiatus. It is extremely unlikely we will be playing any more gigs for the rest of 2009 at least. We're not sure when we'll be back, and it could possibly be permanent, the truth is we really don't know.

    It's not all bad news though, we are currently putting the finishing touches on the 5 tracks we recorded last month in Fastlane Studios. We will be releasing this as our second EP, through a free download service and possibly some kind of limited physical release too. We'll post up more info on that when we decide exactly what we're doing with it.

    We also hope to go back to Fastlane Studios in the summer to finish the recording of 3 songs which did not make it on to the new EP. We'll throw these up online as well for free download.

    So a big thanks to everybody who made it to our various gigs over the past 2-3 years, and to everyone who bought or downloaded our first EP 'Take Your Pick'. Be sure to keep checking the page for info on our next EP. Hopefully we'll see you again at a Jack of Speed gig a few years down the line. Possibly in 2021 when we're all approaching 40, fat, balding, and settled down with a mortgate.

    Until then thanks to everyone for their support.

    Jack of Speed.

  • Hotpress Pick of the Fortnight + Studiobound

    Well we've been waiting a while to hear what Hotpress thought of the EP ever since sending it to them 3 months back. The verdict is finally in, and they've decided to make it their First Cuts pick of the fortnight. This will be in the issue published on Thursday January 15th. The Hotpress First Cuts pick of the fortnight is generously supported by many radio stations throughout the country, so don't be surprised to hear us on stations such as Cork's Red FM, Limerick's Live 95, BBC Radio Foyle, and many others. Many thanks to Hotpress for that.

    Also we're heading back to the studio in February to record our 2nd 5-track EP. Our first EP was received with great response across the board (gaining Phantom FM's Icon Show demo of the week as well as praise from Hotpress and others) which was a massive boost to us as we've only ever really had feedback from immediate friends and family who, lets face it, have to love us no matter what.

    So in light of that, we're really excited about this recording as we have some pretty stomping new material which is just itching to be put down. We recorded some guide tracks ourselves to save time so we're hoping to really get loads out of this session.

  • Take Your Pick - Phantom demo of the week

    So the first piece of media/press feedback is in... and it's good!!

    We were made demo of the week on Phantom's Irish music show Icon for last week, and they played Fallout. Unfortunately none of us managed to catch the show, so if anybody heard it and knows what was said about the EP, feel free to let us know. It's both a bit of a relief and really encouraging for the first piece of feedback to be so positive, after all the hard work and money we've pumped into the project. Thanks a million phantom!!

    Also the remaining 3 songs from the EP will be up on our myspace/bebo/facebook etc. for you to listen to from this Saturday, in anticipation of the release the EP the following Saturday, November 8th. Be sure not to miss the launch gig that night in the Boom Boom Room!
