How many other rock bands are you dominating in Keighley right now? Are you having to fight off mosh-metallers from Silsden and Haworth too?

Woah fair warning on that vid? - what's with slitting girl's eyeball with a razor blade? Put me right off my baked beans 🙁

Haven't watched the video yet but slitting a girl's eyeball with a razor, that was a motif first used in the 1920s or 30s...surrealists I think.

A quick google and hey presto Un Chien Andalou (1929)

Oh yeah. For the squeamish, skip the first 29 seconds of the video

One question; where did the name come from?
Chasing Glass. I'm struggling 🙂

You know when you have a beer with a whisky chaser? The glass containing the whisky...

Thanks CZ 🙂

Turns out we're also no66 on the national Reverbnation Rock chart, which came as quite a surprise.

Not quite sure TBH 😳

We created that video a week ago, at that point we had 7 fans on Reverbnation and 70 or so on Facebook. Jonny boosted the video on facebook friday night. Wednesday night, RN fans started coming in at a rate of about 30 a day.

Be nice if they turn up the next time you play live.

It might be a challenge 😉 they're mostly in the U.S. and, well, we're not...

I actually quite enjoyed the song when you posted the video the other week.

Although The Pixies already did it... 🙂

We do seem to have a certain style that is not particularly new, I agree

No 43 in the UK national rock chart with this website too btw. Yes we know it's not THE charts but it's nice nonetheless 🙂

Ok we're not the biggest fish in a very small pool any more, we knew it would happen soon enough

Our new EP is now available to buy on Amazon, or to stream on Spotify, Deezer etc.

Have a listen, if you like you can buy, or not, and if you don't like, well that's good too. We know it won't be everyone's cup of tea.
