About Me

The Angelshakes have died another death. This is their third proper one (they've also suffered several non-fatal comas). They may be resurrected at some point in the future. Who knows? It's happened before.

Meanwhile, our gravestone has been lovingly inscribed with some new recordings, which we finished during our dying days. We've posted two of the "outtakes" from these 2009 sessions. There will be more to come. Eight more, to be precise.
