On Friday 18th May I will be abseiling 150ft down the side of Peterborough Cathedral dressed not as an oily fish, but as a giant bear. It is all for a wonderful charity called Shine who provide specialist support pre birth and beyond for anyone living with spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus. These are very complex conditions that affect moving, learning and health. And for the record Benny Bear is the charity mascot. Anyway, it is a long, long way up (or down depending how you look at it), and apparently, even on a good day, the top of the tower gets pretty blustery. I can’t say I’m filled with joy at the prospect, more a low level anxiety at the moment, and that’s just dressing up as a giant bear…So have a heart for a fishy old bloke in a furry onesie and sponsor me a few pounds
Thank you!

During the autumn of 2010 we were most taken with Pop. 1280 and their raw, junkyard freak-punk sound. So it is good to know they’re back and as raw and as visceral as ever as Bodies In The Dunes from forthcoming release The Horror (on the ever brilliant Sacred Bones label) testifies.
