▀▀███▀▄█████▀ ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ Goodbye, their first release since 2001s ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ Ten Songs About You, is a collection of ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ nine intimate songs, recorded with ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ longtime collaborator and producer Tom ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ Aitkenhead at the same rat-ridden ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ railway arch theyve been using since ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄

▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓▌ ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
▐███▌▄█████▀ According to Ben, Goodbye was the ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▄ ▄███▄█████▀ easiest album to make from conception to ▀█████▄
▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ completion it was very smooth. Apart ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ from a six month period in the middle ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ where we didnt have a record deal. ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ Goodbye became homeless the day after my ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ 31st birthday, says Jason, and we found ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄
▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ ourselves trying to get it new lodgings ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ at the same time people started saying ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ it was the best thing wed done, which ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ was helpful. ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ The album was quickly picked up by ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ Keith Cullen at Setanta, one of the ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ few truly independent labels in the ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ industry. Setantas the perfect home for ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ our last sprog, says Ben. Weve always ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄
▄▄▄▄▄ ▐██▓ felt at home anywhere that doesnt try to ▓██▌ ████▄ ▄█▌
▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓▌ push square pegs into round holes. ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
▐███▌▄█████▀ ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▄ ▄███▄█████▀ Goodbye is the boys most assured and ▀█████▄
▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ heartfelt album since their 1999 dbut, ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ Hello. According to Jason, its almost a ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ full-circle return. Sometimes, when a ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ song works effortlessly with just an ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ acoustic guitar and a vocal, it pays to ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ make no extra effort. For Ben, it nicely ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄
▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ documents the beginning of my late 20's ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ ego crash. ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ The title for the album, which is about as ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ straight-ahead as it comes, says Ben, ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ seemed the obvious candidate: many of ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ the songs touch on changes of ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ circumstance, and, as Jason says, our ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ usual subtext: loss. And the ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ double-whammy of it being the boys ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄
▄▄▄▄▄ ▐██▓ farewell as a duo evolved through ▓██▌ ████▄ ▄█▌
▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓▌ circumstance. ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
▐███▌▄█████▀ ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▄ ▄███▄█████▀ We felt we ought to be honest enough to ▀█████▄
▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ give our pet project a shelf life, says ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ Jason. And when youve been signed, fted ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ and dropped, its hard not to regard ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ that as the end of a cycle. ▓██▓ ▄█████▀

▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ Ben&Jason, however, have no plans to drop ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄
▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ off the radar. Ben has secreted himself ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ away from the world to pour everything ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ into a new and very different project, ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ while Jason has spent most of the year ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ being freighted across the planet with ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
