New website
Welcome to the new Thumpermonkey website, lovingly themed by Mike Hutchinson.
Work continues apace on the as yet untitled new album, which is currently being mixed by Anthony Chapman. Were still working on a few tracks as well; all we can say at the moment is that it will be landing at some point in 2012, along with a few new videos, and appearances across the UK, (including slot at our beloved Malcfest).
We’re also super excited to welcome new bass player Sam Warren to the fold, just in time to get some low-end grunt on the new recordings after a year of cheating with octave pedals. Check out his piercing stare in the recent photo-shoot by The Chaos Engineers. Incidentally, we can’t praise their work highly enough, (not just the hot pictures of Sam).
To keep up to date with work on the new album, join our mailing list by popping your details in the box to the right, (where it will be consumed by the terrified looking primate). Pip pip!
