The Future Can Wait

God I'm getting worse at updating this blog aren't I?

Anyway, on Friday I stuck out the 18th worriedaboutsatan album, The Future Can Wait. 

I've been doing this band for a huge chunk of my adult life now, and with the 20th anniversary of starting it coming up, it got me thinking about all the usual existential stuff: time, where it's gone, where does it go, holy shit I'm an adult now but when does being an adult start? why am I still thinking 2002 was like 'a few years ago', etc. 

That was the background hum to making this record, which I did in my tiny box room studio up here in Saltaire. I wanted to make three really long tracks and see if I could do a Tangerine Dream: piece it all together without it sounding too jarring or horrible. Hopefully I came close to cracking it, but that's for you to decide I guess.

Anyway, it's out now on digital, CD and streaming (apart from Spotify, because fuck Spotify). Have a gander at it here:
