  • Update...

    Hey y'all,

    Just a quick hello from all at The Underkills HQ...

    No imminent gigs or releases or anything like that, but just to let you know that we had our first "proper" practice for months last week, and we're right back at it.

    Some cracking new songs are being written/worked on, and we are already on the verge of a complete new set, which is rather exciting. The new set will obviously take time to come together, so there probably won't be any gigs till 2010, but we promise it will be worth the wait...!

    Some new song titles to whet your appetite...

    Sunset Song
    Watching You
    Thom Yorke, Thom Yorke
    Stormy Wonder
    Darkened Thoughts
    Nothing Surprises Me

    To name just a few... Some were initially written ages ago, but have never been completed, some are totally new. We've got a fine mix of songwriting going on now as well. Still mostly Calum's lyrics, but Elphi has started putting pen to paper on some of his own compositions. David is still writing killer riffs, which we will hopefully transform into killer songs, as well as a few great songs and Calum has added to his lyrics by writing some music to go with it. All we need to do now is get some of Alan's lyrics incorporated into songs...

    Keep an eye on myspace / facebook / bebo / etc for news of any upcoming gigs / news.

    And remember, The Underkills will change your life...
