we have a demo.
hello people.
to the few that read this, a few weeks ago we went to stuck on a name in nottingham and recorded our demo with boulty,
i think it was probably the best experience ive had recording. really good studio and felt amazingly comfortable, boulty knows what he's doing, and the lift in that place is probably the scariest thing ive ever experienced, but yeah i cant recommend recording there enough and its cheap as well which is a bonus. we didnt take any pictures or videos, but for the last track imagine me in shorts and vest on all fours screaming into the mic on the floor. my god it was a hot day.
links-------> stuck on a name
also Joe C did a cheap master of the tracks for us, again hes done a great job of it, so if ya plan on recording at stuck on a name its nice and easy for joe to master it, go check out his rates and such here-----> Subsequent Mastering
so yeah we have a demo ready for you all to listen to. at the moment you can only download it.
you can download it for free here MRKAXN DEMO
if you like it and would like to buy a copy, we will have it on 100 green cds and 5o green tapes ready in the next couple of weeks.
hopefully in time for these shows,
cheers

No demo, no shows, no ambitions...
so finally we are a band, of sorts.
ok.
Our name is MRKAXN, pronounced markaxon
we used to be in /are in other bands, but this is a new one. if you know us you'll know we're from Coventry except for tom cos' he lives in the city of shit that is sheffield.
we play fast and slow songs with the main theme to lyrics being about a bipolar overweight man who hates alot of things.
Is that a concept????
no.
so yeah , we havent recorded yet, but are looking to do it soon, so we'll inform the world as soon as that gets done, so you can all hate us a wee bit more.
but if anyone knows of any shows or would like to put us on then please do so. email us at tom.is.a.twat@gmail.com
this week clarkie got a hair cut from an irish man with a mullet and then made some rice crispy squares. He also spent a good part of a day scanning all his grandads photos from the past 25 years on to the computer. He thought he was just going round to move some boxes, he's now looking at 30,000 pictures to scan.
tom has made some artwork for the Humble Hoax and also spent 60 hours playing football manager. he's pissed off with with alex ferguson cos' he's been trying to poach all his young talent and its been upsetting the harmony in the dressing room.
jim turned 23 and went to the Peak District with the girl he hangs around with. He probably did something to be a hard man while he was there.
I went to the campbell for the first time in 3 months and got barred for a few weeks for spitting a drink all over someone. As well as throwing a a pint glass into the dance floor and having a piss at the uptairs bar while ordering a drink.
I#i'm hard.
I've also been looking for a new job and reading books. I read apples by Richard Milward and I'm now reading his new one called ten storey love song
tell all your friends.
