High Anxiety

High Anxiety was the seventh full-length album by the band, originally released on the 5th May 2003, and was recorded at Parkgate Studios between December 2002 and January 2003 with producer Pete Bartlett at the helm and also saw the mixing talents of Chris Sheldon (Foo Fighters, Pixies, Biffy Clyro) again.

High Anxiety was the first album to feature drummer Neil Cooper. A long time friend of the band, Neil paid his dues over the years with bands like The Beyond, Cable and Gorilla to name a few.

Subsequently described as “a contender for album of the year” by Rock Sound upon release, with Classic Rock claiming the band had produced “arguably the first grunge classic in 10 years,” High Anxiety is 11 brilliantly crafted songs with a fierce punk rock edge.

The newly remastered version is released on vinyl for the first time, as a standard 140g black vinyl while the 2CD version features demos of all songs from the album recorded at Fortress Studios in May 2002 with Pete Bartlett , with further demos recorded at Real Word Studios in Bath in 2003, alongside bonus tracks and b-sides.
