Welcome to the Occupation – this is the new Babyslave Website (version 3.0 – 2010). We disappeared for a while (long story – mostly involving jazz cats and mysterious vagabonds) – no apologies offered: we’re that kind of band.
Today’s Riot Act Comprises the Following:
1: The East Wing (we bought a mansion/slaughterhouse/menagerie:
Let’s just say it’s got some ‘history’).
2: The Arc Delirium: We made an album last year. Take Note
3: Charlie Machine watches the watchmen
4: We will be playing live very soon. Details to follow
5: I Lucifer hates Javascript
6: Hypnotique doesn’t mind it (dust notwithstanding)
7: The new Chris Morris film is supposedly quite excellent
8: Deleted for reasons of National Security
9: Kill for Dada
10: The Now Brigade Shall Rise Again
Babyslave are recording a new album. Our third to be precise. Unlikely Working Titles include: Three, Slut, National Front Room and How to Stop an Exploding Man Ray. Possibly. Unlike it’s predecessor, we’ve decided to write a) democratically, b) together and c) try to keep the track lengths somewhere in the realm of ‘reasonable’. Demo amusements (to date) include the sado-funk concoction Filthy/Dirty, a grind-sludge metal experiment (which may or may not be called Volte-Face) and various other snippets concerning Blood, Money, Ghosts and Vampires. The usual. Uncle Bill has already been in from the darkside to assist while we may or may not be doing something with a track called Europe After The Rain that’s (seemingly) been kicking around since the original 1945 armistice. More to follow anon…
Oh, and we’re currently making some films/videos/visual soundscapes (call it what you will). When they’re finished, this site will probably house them – in the meantime, here’s some solo endeavours from Miss Hypnotique (avec Sir John Callaghan). Enjoy.
Babyslave are very pleased to announce the third single from the Arc Delirium album – a free-to-air EP of remixes based on the album track Good Design – The EP features brand new versions by Bazt Schnurle, Chris Adamson, John Callaghan and I Lucifer (moonlighting from the day job) – The EP is available for free download now at Valentine Records recently relaunched website
