GAMA BOMB frontman PHILLY BYRNE comments:
"When we released Tales from the Grave in Space as a free download last
year, one of the most common responses from our fans was 'When can I get
this album on CD?' Which was both surprising and reassuring.
"We're giving our fans what we'd ideally like from a band we love; banging
thrash you can either listen to for free or own as a high-quality physical
package if you prefer something for your shelf.
"We worked hard, very hard, on the tracks which make up Half Cut. When we
spent days recording Tales... in the studio, we were working on Half Cut in
the kitchen of our cottage at night. We recorded on weekends and at home
long after recording had finished. These are the freshest songs we've
written, but they're quite different from the songs on Tales... they're a
bit meaner, a bit more evil.
"We're lucky we had the talent of Rory McGuigan to design the album sleeve.
He's made something that looks better to us than any thrash album ever made.
This is exactly the kind of CD we were always meant to have, and we hope our
fans agree.
"People asked us 'where's the CD?' and we're happy we can finally say 'Here
it is, go crazy'."
