Current mood:  aroused
For the benefit of anyone who still comes on here from time to time and have asked about Switches, we are sorry, but its done, we got dropped last year (for the second time), our lives have moved on as I know yours have. Thanks to all of yuz who supported us over the years, we love you.

Not all doom and gloom though, we have been working on a new project, something to keep us off the streets at night. Its called FLASH FIkTION and if you are interested in it, check it here.


If not, fuck off, and we'll see you around.
Love you

Word creatures.
Whilst sitting bolt upright after my 3rd nightmare in a row, i decided to chuck a few more pieces of musical saliva out from my left ear. My golden daughter even spewed out a few lyrics so you can squirm along!

Inferior Interior - a song devised from my love of Hall and Oates and the art  of cosmic love making. It won't make it though.

Glitter Your'e On Your Own - written and recorded post breakdown (check my answerphone message at the end) - Marc has never sounded so alive and well. Thanks to the good captain for a hefty slice of Hair Pie: Bake One of course!

Pike Maul - oh the joys of being 19 and high on skittles. Can you taste the rainbow? No neither could I. Still, if you drop them in Vodka, you'll bleed happiness for at least an hour.

Unfortunately there are no plans to travel with our tools for the remainder of the year (we've worked so fast and forceful already since Gennaio). Also its highly unlikely you'll be hearing any new seedy works from our slimey mouths for a while. We must return underground to worship new gods. Saying that we could force out a double album before the holidays.

Must go back to my nightmares now.
Love,
The Boss


PS - the date of release for the album I'm listening to was March 13th 1970. Ignore what it says.
And remember... we are out here recording a bush. Its a bush recording.

Ollie, Thom, Steve and Felix were lucky enough to go to Weezers Hootenanny in LA.

Taking a variety of ad hoc instruments, Thom - Microkorg with Ollies mini-amp, Ollie -kazzo, Steve - Shakey egg etc, the band jammed along, with 250 other fans, to some of Weezers biggest smashes.



Thom and Ollie taking some solo duties.  Thom was caught short when attempting to take-a-leek (at the same time as Pat Wilson strangley enough), was summoned to play the solo to Island in the sun....ooopss.

Nevermind.......

You can see all the antics and performances at http://new.music.yahoo.com/nissanlivesets

See if you can spot Switches amongst the 250 fans.

Just cus we're in a generous mood, we've decided that for everyday we are on our current US tour, we'd upload a rare Switches gem from our dusty old piss sodden archives.

If you like any of them let us know. If you hate them thats even better.

Each song will only be on here for a few days, so make sure you listen every day.

Love from

Nils Bejerot
