Fuel by Parasite

The third "proper" album, this time with the songs written 2009-2014. The singles were "The Minutiae", "Look At Me, Don't Look At Me" and "Banana Medicine".
A lot of the songs had been played during the ill-fated Scanlon & Banks lineup when they were due to appear on an album called "Strawberry Fuel" which was nearly finished apart from the mixing. This delay had led to the break up of the band. This is actually the third attempt at making this album as the original version was to be called "Crazy Fuel", featured a completely different tracklisting (including old long-lost live favourite "Amorous Oxide") and was started by the even more ill-fated Scanlon & Williams lineup. hey ho.

Spurred on by encouragement from Will Saunders (who features on "The Minutiae") and my cousin Ryan of the band Satellite State, this album took shape over the course of 2014 and features a wider range of instruments and styles than ever before. Some tracks feature a Roland D50 which was previously owned by Captain Sensible and used on some of his groovy solo albums. Check it out.
