Etc :: April Fools (2009)

A virtual EP, three live recordings, from local indie rockers Etc..

That's Ben Harrison (guitar/vocals) and Harvey Chamberlain (drums).

Highlight: "Cupid Stunts / Love Is A Four-Letter Word (First take - ever)" (14:27), a post-spacey epic.

Also includes:

"Bring Me My Dunce's Cap" (Tom Weights guest) (6:24)

"Let's Take Forever" (live in studio) (6:01)

From their recording notes:

"The alchemy involved with recording can be frustrating (at least it can be for at least one half of the Etc power duo), but there’s no alchemy here. The Etc duo caught on Walkman as they play live in the studio, April 2009.

Includes: the first time ‘Love is a Four Letter Word’ was played… ever (see Harvey rise to the occasion…; w/ Harrison guitar masterclass commence circa the 10:30 mark…); ‘Bring Me My Dunce’s Cap’ w/ guest vocals by Tom Weights…; plus more to be added as it’s salvaged… "

Translation: All live. Completely sweat-and-spit real. No right-click fakery.

For a better experience, we recommend listening with headphones.
