One of the things that happened musically was we send him a song that we were working on called 'Hapsburg Lip' which didn't make the proper record in the end but did make the deluxe. It's not a very strange record but that was very unexpected.
He said that his favourite band was The Pixies which did surprise us a bit. They're unrepeatable because they're about anal sex and stuff like that - which you don't really want to hear.ĭid he play you anything strange musically? Within an afternoon he was cracking jokes that we found hilarious that were pretty weird. That was one of his main strengths: his ability to become one of us very quickly. He's a very surreal guy.

It wasn't until the band's played it to Radio One's Huw Stephens and then to a devoted crowd at London's Oval Space that his mind was put at rest. One of the best tracks on the new record, 'No Reptiles' is built around the following refrain.
