Album Focus: The Gun Barrel Straights

Answered by: Spencer Skehill

Album title? Front & Centaur

Where did the title of your new album come from? The title came to us while badly hungover during a bizarre trip to Adelaide. As did the artwork. There's simply nothing like making a few important decisions with a stinging headache.

How many releases do you have now? This is release number two after our first single She's Moving Home. We sound plenty different now.

How long did it take to write/record? An eternity. They always taken an eternity. Some songs were written years ago and laboured over, some were written more recently. First prize to whoever can pick the oldest and newest songs on the album!

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? Fear.

What's your favourite song on it? The beauty of Front & Centaur is there's something there for everyone, but for me Magnificent is the winner.

Will you do anything differently next time? I'd do so much differently, but mainly I'd like to get it done a lot quicker. If you don't look to improve with each album you should probably quit music.

When and where is your launch/next gig? 16 Oct, The Gasometer Hotel.
