You may be wondering where the hell the Footage have been. No updates to the site for over a year, no gigs since October, nothing on the mailing list... Ok so they've never been the greatest of communicators but this was getting ridiculous.

Luckily they have a decent excuse and I'm pretty sure you'll forgive them once you hear what it is. In fact I suggest you start getting excited, for they have been burrowed away in a dark room in South London working on their debut album and everyone who's heard the work in progress agrees that it sounds pretty special.

It's called The Summit Of Mount Everest Is Marine Limestone and it's made up of 13 songs some of which you may recognise from their live performances over the past year and a half and some of which have never been played live or recorded before.

I'll get a track-listing up within the next couple of days and I'll even try and get my hands on a clip or two to post up here to whet your appetites.
