Wax Monster is 5!

Wax Monster is 5!

15 September 2025 - in
Today is the 5th anniversary of our second album The Wax Monster Lives Behind the First Row of Trees, released on 15th September 2020!
This album will always be a very special one, released in between lockdowns and during a year that was hard for everybody. Releasing the Wax Monster felt a bit like a conjuring of the whole period, a way to get back out there and have fun.
These photos are part of a photoshoot that was used for the inner sleeves of the album. You never know what you’ll find when you start wandering on the hills… Like a strange mushroom feeding on a goose egg nesting in a tree on the Welsh borders. The goose egg is clearly the vessel to other worlds!
If you feel like you’ve been missing out, we still have a few Wax Monster on Bandcamp on vinyl (second pressing) and CD!
Let’s remember the Source Code Release Party

Let’s remember the Source Code Release Party

Last week we were supposed to finish recording our second album at AR Studio. We also should have played the Globe for BrightField Spring Edition with a bunch of really cool people. Last month we missed an awesome gig that has already been reported for March next year! (more on that later)

But instead of dwelling on all that, let’s focus on the fact that we’re all fine and active. We’ve been sending each other bits of stems and whatnot and even if it really feels unnatural (our music has always happened because we were all in the same room jamming together), it still is something. We might even get a track out of it at the end of the lockdown!

A year ago, we were in a local church in Hay-on-Wye, launching Source Code with our spacesuits, smoke, lights, a choir, a church organ, lots of friends and very nice people.

We talked about making it a yearly event, or on the contrary do a tour in churches. Who knows?
