We have added the 2001 Night Vision demo by those riotous Paignton rockers Murdock to the Archives of Wud Records. Their bass player Adam, now living in Australia, has hinted that there may be more songs lurking in a locked filing cabinet in a disused toilet in the basement where the lights don’t work and someday he may dig them up from their sanctuary to be enjoyed once more by humans worldwide.

If you would like to hear the Night Vision demo by Murdock, please click here and press ‘play’ on the mp3 player when the new tab appears.

Pok, our wandering minstrel, has returned to Wud Records to spend some more time in the studio recording material for his forthcoming Anthology.

Over the past couple of days, much production and tracking work has been done to Silver Ships on the Sea and We Know You Well. Both tracks are beginning to sound fabulous! The current mixes of Young Light and Summer ’83 have been approved for mastering. Another one from the archives, perhaps less well-known and called Cunning and Tricks, has been tracked roughly and plans are afoot to begin work on The Sidewalk Song, Love Is My Purple Bicycle, Flashback, Born, She’s Beautiful, It’s a Blue Sky Don’t Hold No Rain and several others.

There is a small amount of video footage from this session which we hope we will be able to bring you soon on our YouTube channel, WudRecords. We plan to publish a lot more videos there in the coming weeks and months.

Wud Records are contemplating the idea of releasing several volumes of Pok‘s Anthology as there is such a great treasure-trove of music to enjoy there. We are considering doing some limited-edition vinyl releases as well as CD and mp3 downloads.

Pok will be back in the studio again next week and we will update you of what goes on in our News service.

Here is our collated top 20 download/playlist chart for December 2012 for all the tracks available from the Wud Records shop at Bandcamp.

Everything is linked to open in new windows for your enjoyment. :-)

Gallery 7 of Dark Company Pete’s artwork has finally been published. Gallery 7 spans the period from June 2012 to the present day and contains two pages. We will publish more images to Gallery 7 when they have been created.

None of the images in Gallery 7 have been published previously.

If you would like to view Gallery 7, please click here.

The Furniture (epilogue) by The Bastard Sons of Dennis has now been released and added to their Cherry Smoke Empire album at our store at Bandcamp.

This is the final part of the ongoing tale of Los Muebles, a traditional tale from the Asturias region of northern Spain, that tells of how a disfunctional family of linguistically challenged fishermen lost and then found some furniture following a flood, and the consequences. The Bastard Sons of Dennis have loosely translated the song into English.

We will be releasing the whole of The Furniture as a single once all nine of its parts have been released.

Gallery 6 of Dark Company Pete’s artwork has now been published. Gallery 6 spans the period from July 2011 to June 2012 and contains two pages, each with 48 images.

Many of the images in Gallery 6 have not been previously published as they were lurking in the depths of the Wud Records shed, behind the Shovel of Baneful Bludgeoning, or created more recently than previous gallery updates.

Several of these raw images have been used in the creation of album cover artwork for Dark Company and other bands.
