Album Focus: Cisco Caesar
The title track from Cisco Caesar's album was ten years in the making...
Album title? Burnt And Broken
Where did the title of your new album come from? It's the last song on the album. It was an easy choice because we love playing it live, it's been with us since the band started, and we've been pretty burnt and broken at times.
How many releases do you have now? We released an EP in 2011 so this is our debut LP. Some would call that slow, we say deliberate.

How long did it take to write/record? The title song took over ten years. A couple were written in minutes. If that next chord change or lyric isn't coming easy, back on the shelf it goes. It's a bit OCD actually.
Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? JT had a heart attack, and James discovered he has a dangerously slow heart rate (they are both fine now). Heartbreak Heart Attack was a nod to those issues, and it makes you air-thrust.
What's your favourite song on it? Unlucky Fool, one of two new tracks that we threw on, we just hit record so it's pretty raw-sounding.
Will you do anything differently next time? We'll probably do different songs on the next album. Unless of course the people demand more of the same, which is cool but we'd have to change instruments for kicks.
When and where is your launch/next gig? It's at The Luwow in Fitzroy on Saturday 30 Aug. It's a toga party! We'll launch our new record into Melbourne with go-go dancers and a big frigging bang.
