STUDIO UPDATE - Recording for the new Shocked Elevator Family record is now well underway. So far around 8 songs have been recorded. A handful of those are basically finished, a few more need vocals, and they all need mixing but this first round of sessions should be wrapped up in the next week or so. So it's all starting to come together. Once the first lot of mixing is done we'll give you a preview of what's on the way.
