The band has released a fun video for their ode to indiscriminate love and loving, Cherry Pop. Pete advises that the cream poured in the video was expired (though the pie seems sadly fresh). "Never let it be said that Wimpshake are cream wasters!!! Quite the opposite!!!!"
Pete also reports that the band is going to play at least four brand new songs at Indietracks on July 30th. And maybe, if the bandmates can be persuaded, a cover of Electro Hippies' "(Don't Kill) Sheep" (gig video from 1988). A new release is anticipated by the end of the year on Fortuna Pop!
Also: Sam Metcalf from A Layer of Chips interviews Pete in anticipation of Indietracks 2011. Excuse me while I kiss the sky ...
And Scared to Dance is releasing an Indietracks special fanzine, featuring the band!Get the zine at their club night on July 23rd. That first link also has info on ordering the zine and making requests for the DJs, which will include pop queen Amelia Fletcher.
