This album started in the last hour of 2009. As NYE parties raged around the globe, I was in my room, tooling around making a song which I finished the next morning, and which became the opener and title track of this album. The title probably seems a bit depressing, but it is at least fitting...Enough Rope simply continues to exist, weird and slightly pointless. It may survive the nuclear holocaust.

This was recorded in chunks over the first seven months of 2010, except 'Whose Footprints Are These?', a series of layered ebow loops I rediscovered in a dusty corner of my PC. It represents one of two songs on here with PSOne-era video game dialogue references, which was a pure accident. It's a cause of some regret that I didn't turn the rest into a concept album.

My favourite track here is 'Destroy The Earth', six minutes of glistening light and shade. 'You Kiss Like Your Dad' owes its title to a mishearing of Cex's 'You Kiss Like You're Dead'.

It seems like a while since I made one these albums. I missed it.
