Tablets - Take Two!

Take Two Tablets! Taketh!

Yes folks we're back with our second record and we hope you're going to love it has much as we've loved making it.

You Lie! features the first appearance by drummer Jones on lead vocal, in a homage to Ringo, and to liars everywhere.

Gonna Be A Fight is a song by Fash where he sings and plays guitar, with Domino providing the bass bops. Can you believe that's the vocal he recorded while tracking? Since we recorded this, we've dropped the second chunk of verse, so you'll have to edit this out using your MIND.

Watch Out For Yourself is fearsome.

Draw The Bridge appears for jam fans, and is actually structured with great purpose despite its nineteen minute length. Wait for five and a half minutes in if you don't believe us!

As before, mucho phanks to the John Lennon Memorial Scholarship for funding this record into existence. We think it's what Johnny would have wanted, even though he'd likely have labelled it "shit". Gracias pour Yokono Lennono per la monetas. Danke sehr alleso zum schallplattentudiotechniker Dr. Michael Beiert und Mr Phil Higgins for tolerating our many requests for multiple microphones and our always leaving the control room wired in a confusing manner. Special thanks to everyone who has supported or discouraged Tablets, particularly Auntie C, Beng who couldn't be with us this time, Dr Mat, Scottish islanders, beautiful Australians in Victoria, lengthy contrabassists, and one Varatuomari in Finland.

There's also a bonus track for superfan buyers - the instrumental version of Watch Out For Yourself. Mixing wiz IG wanted us to include it because IG loved its skippidy-dippidy riddim and because it contributed to making IG's tinnitus even worse than it was before. Please don't let that tinnitus ring forevermore in vain! There's also a bonus bonus item included in the download.

Watch out (for yourself) for our next EP *Paint it Brown* upcoming later this year. If you've enjoyed this record, you're gonna poo your pants at that one!

See yas later.

El Tabletaz.

Tracks 1, 3, & 4 Written by Lewington
Track 2, Written by Carter.
All four improved by Jones.

Recording engineered by India Goldsmith at the SSL Studio, University of Liverpool, Summer 2023. Mixed in 96khz Mono by IG through the SSL Duality desk, with liberal use of the Empirical Labs Distressor, Manley VariMu, and SSL Fusion. As before, the Tablets all played live in the room to get that genuine Tablet groove. No overdubbing was done on track two, and minimal overdubbing done to the others. Seriously its monophonic like in the sixties, stick through your oscilloscope if you don't believe us.

Produced by Tablets.
