Ahh the Quiet, the brushing of the trees, the whisper of the wind and in the distance the whirr of lonely cars gliding along the motorway to a destination unknown. It is the hour after the Riot Act, the lost hour between Saturday night and Sunday morning. Is it happiness, regret, embarassment, saddness or hope that you feel. God knows where you've woken up or how you're going to get home. Ahh yes the Quiet Act. Its early Sunday morning and i'm drunk but when I get home I'm going to listen to a record because it'll sound really good. I'll don the headphones and turn it up really loud and when I awake Sunday afternoon my ears will be ringing and my head will be pounding but it was fun while it lasted. Weird recently recorded their sixth studio album 'Quiet Act' up north in a quiet place. Out now, CD from the band and NOW ON itunes

September 09 news
Hey all its been a while! Firkin Outburst our 2nd lp that was never recorded back in 98 is now nearly ready. Its a mixture of recordings we did at the time, recordings from a couple of years ago and live tracks from the practise room. All the songs were written years ago but it was fun to go back and re visit them.
Official bootleg 2 has been put to master and now a cover is to be made with comprehensive sleeve notes.
We'll be gigging in November, bringing back songs from all our previous six albums and hopefully if God permits some new stuff. We did mention the difficult 7th album at practise we're going to take our time with this one. We'll write loads of songs and hopefully we'll get a few crackers to put on an album.
We'll also update some of the MP3's on this site, there is a couple of tracks on the bootleg that might be of interest.
Thanks for reading0 Comments 43 days

news May 09
May already how times flys. Its been a difficult year so far but now we are reguarly getting down to the room to practise. We've got Firkin Outburst to re-release, the Official Bootleg 2 and Live at the Lodge all coming out this year. Stop gaps are great!! Our next lp is way off, however we all agreed that writing should commence soon.
Firkin Outburst is our 2nd lp that we had to re-record, once we've done that all 6 lp's will be complete
Live at the Lodge was a wee live acoustic set we played during the Quiet Act recording session however micing problems played havoc with the vocals so we'll re-record the vocals so it'll be er, semi live!
Official Bootleg 2 is another collection of rough recordings that have laid about for years.0 Comments 190 days

I am currently listening to loads of old records by the band and will have a new bootleg for Weird listeners very shortly. Firkin Outburst will also finally get its release this year, the lp is only 10 years old! As for new material well i'm really keen to get cracking on, so lets say we start writing late summer we should hopefully have a new lp 2010.0 Comments 216 days

Paul Henry Smith67 weeks agoThe master is making its way to iTunes so it'll be on there soon. The CD is at the printers, one page (the credits) has been causing a problem so we're fixing that. We're all fine, getting holidays out the way then back to the practise room and hopefully a few gigs in the Autumn.

Big thanks to Greg and Deek for coming through with your mates on Sunday night.
It makes the world of difference to look out to a crowd and see friendly faces.
Hope you enjoyed the new sound guys.
