Press release;
"We've been together since 2007. We've accomplished a lot in that time; 2 c.d.s, a single, a video, mentions in the national press, FESTIVALS, numerous unforgettable gigs and moments with the people who have come with us.
But we've also changed in those 4 years.
As 2010 reached a close, our evolution had reached a critical point - we were no longer bound to the same instrumentation we had begun as a band with - but we were still playing songs as if we were. We felt an urge to do something new, but felt like we owed something to the past. We were also tired of tiring you - the people who support us - by delivering the same set-contents you had become familiar, too familiar, with.
So we stopped.
We stopped for 5 months. For 5 months we found ourselves in Ghetto's absence. We were forced to think about what Ghetto was anymore. We spent time reacquainting ourselves with ourselves, and each other. We started new ways of writing. We rediscovered parts of Ghetto which had become lost under layers and layers of hype received too early. Humbled, we seem to know the geography of Ghetto better than ever before. But there was still something missing; the live element.
The skeleton of this band has always been an aim to present a live show that blends the best parts of heavy/gritty and dance/electronic music. Our enthusiasm gave that skeleton organs - the parts that make the machine 'tick'. Its your continued interest that gives its skin, seals it and makes it whole.
Come along to Cyprus Avenue on the 30th, and be part of the rejuvenated body of Ghetto.
P.s. - It's also been a year since we released out last e.p., so we'll be lobbing off copies to anyone who hasn't got one before, for FREE!"
Cheers,
Chris.
