Album title? Machine Made The Animal

Where did the title of your new album come from? It was a lyric I wrote in a track that didn’t make to our last record, Beautiful In Danger; it’s a strong title. In the end we are the animals.

How many releases do you have now? Two EPs, a live record, and two LPs. Starting to get a collection!

How long did it take to write/record? We had a three-month plan. Took us eight weeks to write and four weeks to record.

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? The timeline not very inspiring but kept us on our toes. When you set goals on yourself you can be surprised what comes out.

Will you do anything differently next time? Maybe more recording time; give the guys some more freedom to explore. Being on budget, it gets tense. Dan Murtagh our producer got us over the line!
