Merry Christmas Elevens!
We decided this Christmas we wanted to make you guys a Christmas covers EP, but we also decided we wanted to do something a little different and so we came up with the concept of 'Christmas Number Ones which aren't that Christmassy'. They can be enjoyed all year round!
1. Mad World (Michael Andrews and Gary Jules*, 2003)
2. Always on my Mind (Pet Shop Boys**, 1987)
3. Stay Another Day (East 17, 1994)...
Has it been a month already? I guess so. Here's our new song then! It's a bit quieter than the stuff we've been putting out lately, and it has some sax on it, let us know if you like it!
We've got some fun Christmas stuff coming next month, we hope that makes you excited.
As always thanks so much for the support, it means so much and it's the only reason this is even happening,

Happy 11/11!
Please enjoy this free cover, which'll become Patron-only at 11:11pm tomorrow night, so get it while you can (or even better, support us and become a Patron yourself, you get lots and lots of music right now, it's a good time to join!).
Fun fact, Mr Jonathan Kogan is pulling lead vocal duties in the verses here, let him know how great he sounds in the comments.

Well, this song ended up being more complicated than we initially thought it would be, but it might also be the best song ever recorded, let us know in the comments.
We call this song Kaleidoscope.

Does this pass for entertainment
Like the labyrinths before?
You fuck their minds up in the classroom
First, to second guess their soul
Head down you know, head down you know
Fall dominos, fall domino

This month we've decided to relive our childhoods by covering three of our favorite songs from the late 90s/early 00s. These three songs were originally sung by ladies, hence the very clever title. We've never recorded covers before, and we had a lot of fun making these. If you guys like them we'd certainly consider doing more! Let us know in the comments if so, and which songs you'd like to hear us cover.
01. All The Things She Said (originally by t.A.T.u.)
02. Maria (originally ...

As a special bonus free thing this month just for you guys, our Team 11 Patrons, we're releasing the demos to all of the SINGLARITY tracks we've released so far. By some absolutely insane coincidence, we had 11 demos (we really didn't do this on purpose, promise, honestly it's freaking us out a bit), 2 different demos for each track (apart from EGAP which only had one demo).
We decided to include both demos so you can get an idea of how our songs evolve over time, maybe...

The SINGLARITY train pulls into a new station, and we think it's the best one yet! Let us know in the comments if you agree :)
This is ØCULIST.
NOTE: This is the track for August! We tried to get it out yesterday, but it was taking ages to finish the mix so I decided to take another day to make it good (rather than on time). There will be another track in September, do not worry. Plus we might have something else ready for you guys too, let's see!
Lyrics
Finally, some new music!
This is Tear Up.
We hope you like it!
Lyrics
Humid nights in the monsoon
They’ll smoke out the beast in you
Visions I should disavow
Stand your ground, ‘cause it all works out
There’s an hour left to midnight
My dear, caught in the headlights
Plastique pose, transcend all doubt
I’m reborn in the blast fallout
Flares are up! Tear it up! Tonight!
Play for all you can
All they’ve...
FINALLY we've finished putting together our first ever live album, recorded on tour last month across the UK! The 11 tracks have been created from recordings taken throughout the tour mixed together. We hope you like it, we've had many comments over the years asking us to record ourselves live, and hopefully we'll be doing this for every tour we do going forward.
Apologies this has taken so long, but between Sparkles*' computer failing and him trying to move house during the production ...

Howdy guys!
We got back from tour a couple of days ago, and the leftover merch is now up on our store. We'll be announcing it properly in a few hours, but we're giving you guys a heads up so you can have first pick!
Still finishing up the live album, it's sounding HUGE, hope you're excited!

Today marks the 6th anniversary of the release of our first album All the Lights in the Sky, and to celebrate it this year we've done something we think is quite special.
In a break from our SINGLARITY project, we're releasing an EP of music we've been wanting to create for at least 6 years: Cassandra Rising. It's the soundtrack to the first episode of an anime we'd make if we ever got the chance, and an idea we had wa...

As last time, if you use Spotify, consider putting it into a playlist, because that'll help us a lot! We've made a playlist of all the SINGLARITY tracks in order, why not give that a follow too?
As always, thanks to our amazing Patrons for your support, time to get to work on the n...

We hope you guys are having a great day, Santa's Audio Elf (Sparkles*) has been hard at work mixing and mastering instrumental versions of the SINGLARITY tracks, which are now available to download! In the future, he'll make them at the same time as the actual track, like he probably should have been doing already (what an idiot).
Here you can find the mp3s, but if you go back to the previous posts you can find the instrumentals in wav and flac formats too!
Have a Merry Christmas ...

Hey there Elevens!
We've had a blast over the last couple of months releasing new music to you guys, and we think this experiment is going great so far: we hope you like the new tunes. It's been all thanks to your amazing response that this has been a success, and to say thanks we're releasing a special Christmas present just to you guys.
If you were at our Christmas show last year you might remember this, but to most of you we imagine it's new. We've only played this once! It's a...

The third single - Curtain Fall.
We love this new track and can't wait to play it live. Let us know what you think in the comments!
Lyrics
There are some ways to win
The primal games we’re in
I’m bleeding out the toxin
Waiting for the curtain
Where white and black collide
Ground one foot either side
You’re bleeding out your options
No more words of caution
Back when I thought I was
Built that way, just ...
