So... Hi! How you? Fine thanks and you? Fine thanks.

I'm sitting at Audio Militia Studios next to my boy Tripwire while our Shane, aka "The Showered One", aka "Shooter Shane", aka "Slinky Toes", aka "Fifty Shot Johnny", aka "Mom's Sarmies", aka "Fuck Face", lays down bass tracks for one of the tracks - The Flaw - on our new album "The Name That Shall Not Be Mentioned", which is actually not the name at all... I'm just not sure what our manager (who is actually Shane) said about letting the name out... I'm so confused. All I can say is that the album has an amazing title, but more importantly, amazing songs! And the one I wanna talk about now is The Flaw. Because we've decided to record it again in a dropped B tuning. We're scared. It's so low down and bass fat that we're afraid people might actually die... No really, this song used to be total madness, now a step and a half lower, it's madder than Jeffrey Dahmer and Courtney Love's schizophrenic hermaphrodite bastard child! I can't flippin' wait to drop it live, but only if you guys promise to be Jeffrey Dahmer and Courtney Love's schizophrenic hermaphrodite bastard children on the g-damn dancefloor...! I'm talking disgusting pits here guys. Seriously.
But anyway, over the weekend we spent some time re-recording guitars for all the songs we currently have for the new album. Initially we had recorded guitars using verious equipment, including a SansAmp, various Marshall amps and Eleven, but this time round we tried some other guitars, including a PRS SC 245 and a Yamaha Baritone, along with our own guitars. We also tried a Randall amp and A Mesa for something different, something else, y'know! More is definitely more in the world of Pestroy...
Basically, what I'm tryna say is that shit is fat yo. And better. And tighter. And heavier! WOOP!
We'll be releasing soon, we'll keep you crazy cats posted, pinky swear!
In other Pestroy news... We're now on Twitter, because the whole world said we must be. Follow us to get more regular updates on what's in happeing in Pestroyville.
We also did a new photoshoot with Nic Van Reenen and acclaimed local photgrapher Mike Lewis. We're super stoked with the outcome, and had a really cool time working with these two guys, the whole thing was super chilled and they were awesome to work with, thanks guys! Expect suits, cereal, scissors, skeletons, and sluts! 'Cos Jim was there... POW! KABLAMMO!
Ok, I'm tired and I want Gahzel. Lata!
