weegeebee I’ve got to admire your commitment to the concept of “the difficult 3rd album”
But what a 3rd album it would have been.
This is great Gerard and Ray. Great songs, great singing, great guitar noises. Crikey, even some great keyboard bits.
Please don’t leave it as long until the 4th because if you do I don’t think I’ll see it. Favorite track: The Script.

dhlg the greatest songwriter of my generation. a master of melody and a lyric that opens the heart of what it is to be human and how to navigate the murky waters of this thing called life. Add Rays awesome sounds and well.....euphoria, tears, sublimity. Thankyou

about

Recorded in 2003, tracks 1,2,4,5 and 6 were originally intended for what would have been the third Witness album but the band decided to call it a day before completion. Track 3 was recorded a few months later with the same line up but as a Gerard Starkie solo project.

Gerard Starkie Bristol, UK

Former lead singer with Witness, the band signed to Island Records released two albums; Before The Calm (1999) and Under A Sun (2001). They both received the most extraordinary critical applause, some of which was especially reserved for Starkie's own performances.

Gerard now performs and records as both a solo artist and with Hazel Winter as The Jesus Bolt. ... more

Machine Gun Nest

Ooh, this album is great! Great big catchy punk rock guitar riffs, darkly humorous quirky songs, keyboards in all the right places coupled with Hazel and Gerard’s very different but complimentary songwriting and vocal skills. I’d like to think I can tell which one of the duo wrote which song but I could be wrong. No particular favourite as it’s such a strong set of songs that as I’m listening I keep saying “Oh, I like this one”. Shout out to John Langley on drums. He must be at least 108 by now weegeebee
