A collection of reworking’s from across our two albums. The Blinders have announced a limited run of a new live album entitled “The Lounge Lizard Session”, on which a fresh lick of paint has been given to select tracks from last year’s “Fantasies Of A Stay At Home Psychopath” album.
“When everything went to shit with the Covid pandemic, we realised that if we wanted to continue playing live shows we’d have to drastically change the sound and really roll down the amps,” Thomas Haywood explains.
“We played a few shows at a local hotspot for the modern beatniks of Manchester called the Rose & Monkey Hotel. Musically, it’s the most enjoyment I’ve ever gotten out of playing a collection of songs. The whole thing became a project of ours, and we gradually began increasing the depth of the pieces by bringing in keys and other various parts.”
“These songs, these arrangements, became our way of getting back to our audience and once again revelling in the communion that we feel when we play on stage. This record was recorded in one take at Parr St. Studios in Liverpool, a place we’ve wanted to work out of for some time. Listening back, as far as keepsakes or souvenirs go…it feels pretty special.”
