Single Focus: The Leap Year

Answered by: Rob Schifferli

Single title? Knesting

What’s the song about? It’s about the things that float around in your mind. Truth verses reality. In saying that, it’s not that deep.

How long did it take to write/record? It took a night to write. There are certain time where it all comes together. It took about four hours to record. It’s simple in structure.

Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release? Knesting/Dental Work 7”.

What was inspiring you during the song’s writing and recording? The song came about because Martin (our other guitarist) wanted to go home. I was fluffing with the main riff and he was jabbing back at me with his obnoxious guitar chords. It sounded good.

We’ll like this song if we like... Slint or Mogwai (with singing)???

Do you play it differently live? Nope. Exactly the same! 

When and where is your launch/next gig? 12 Jun at Astor Lounge with Wayward Johnson, The City Views and Lanark.
