Our fully collated Top 100 Chart for sales, downloads and plays has been published to the Wud Records forums. If you would like to see our chart for the whole of 2011, you can do so by clicking here.

We have changed the format slightly of how we publish our charts in the forums. Each chart will now be a separate topic in a new forum that has been created specially for charts. This will allow visitors to the site forums to comment on the charts we post.

The Dark Company album Alien Heat has had two more songs added to it. Crash and Prisoner have both been produced to alpha stage and fitted into the mp3 player where they belong.

The Alien Heat album by Dark Company is a collection of the songs played or at least partly composed by the band Alien Heat, from which Dark Company were formed. It still needs a lot of work to finish these songs, especially where it comes to mixing Prisoner as that one has over 90 tracks of audio! The entire Alien Heat album is now approaching full alpha status, with just two more songs – Wonderlust and The Joker – remaining to be added.

Crash is the digitally sequenced version of the song that appeared on Dark Company’s Signmaker album and takes a tongue-in-cheek prod at the TV genre of soap opera in general.

Prisoner is a collection of dark, philosophical wanderings and meanderings through the film set scenery of the beautiful and allegorical 1982 film by Jim Henson and Frank Oz, Dark Crystal.

If you would like to hear Crash, Prisoner, or indeed the rest of the Alien Heat album in its current state, you can do so by clicking here.

Following yesterday’s upload of a new song by The Bastard Sons of Dennis, we now have exactly 100 songs for sale at our shop at Bandcamp.

All of our songs have been available at ‘name-your-own-price’, which includes free. Since we changed our pricing structure thusly, sales have increased. We were going to review the situation after 111 downloads, and as that happened within a few days we shall keep to this current policy for now and review it in due course.

Customers who download songs or albums for 89% or more of the price we set for each will receive upgraded files for free by email when they become available. We hope to be able to add a lot more of our bands’ songs to the Wud Records catalogue at Bandcamp in the coming weeks.

We would like to say a big ‘thank you’ to everybody who has supported our work by paying for downloads. :-)

A new song from The Bastard Sons of Dennis has been completed and uploaded to their pages here and our shop at Bandcamp for you to download. This new song is called She’s as Beautiful as a Foot and has been added to the Cosy Lube Turtle collection as well as the Wud Records default music player.

She’s as Beautiful as a Foot is a cover of a song by Blue Oyster Cult from their eponymous 1972 album and is one that The Bastard Sons of Dennis rarely perform live due to the need for Mr Nejsan to retune his guitar to DADGAD, which is made more tricky by the tiny pieces of tin foil that reduce the worst of the effects of the fret buzz. All of the songs on the Cosy Lube Turtle album are Blue Oyster Cult covers.
