hey all, our first album 'Plays Well With Others' will be out from next Friday 7th November 2003. expect to find it in Road, Tower and City Discs initially, and hopefully more afterwards. it will be available to buy online at www.roadrecs.com or www.skinnywolvesdistro.cjb.net free 2 track album samplers are available from Road Records this week. The Coldspoon Conspiracy The Coldspoon Conspiracy release their first full length album ‘Plays Well With Others’ on November 7th 2003 through Greyslate/Vernacular Records. The album, recorded and mixed over 3 days by Rob Bochnik (who has previously engineered albums by Smog, The Breeders and Shellac), is a culmination of 3 years of hard work, following packed gigs and festival appearances around the country, as well as shows in the UK and the US. The much anticipated album has been preceded by a sold out 7” EP ‘Hopelessly Naïve’ (2001), and several tracks on much sought after compilations. It is the first recording by the band’s current line-up of Pat Cannon (vocals, guitar), Darren Craig (guitar), Ronan Jackson (bass) and Peter Lee (drums). On ‘Plays Well With Others’, the band augmented their guitar/bass/drums sound with splashes of vibraphone, keyboards and piano, making for a richer, fuller sound. The album is being given a joint release by Greyslate Records (home to Dublin instrumental geniuses The Redneck Manifesto and The Connect 4 Orchestra) and new Dublin label Vernacular Records, and will be supported by live appearances around the country in the coming months. thanks very much
