Today is #bandcampfriday, which means all sales on today will go directly to the artists without Bandcamp taking a cut To mark the occasion I have added a bonus recording of our one & only gig at Two By Two, Newcastle on 4th July as a bonus with all digital downloads of the brand new Meiosis album 'All I Know Is That I Know Nothing'

We recorded the set through the sound desk so it sounds pretty decent & I'd love you all to hear it as we were pretty proud of ourselves that day!

The set features tracks from the new album plus some old Meiosis classics.

1. Wishing It Was Sacred (Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

2. This Time (Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

3. Reset/Start Again ((Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

4. Dead Slug (Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

5. Cartoon Cats (Looking For My Friends) (Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

6. Dribs & Drabs (Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

7. Alice In Wonderland Syndrome (Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

8. On A Mission (Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

9. Play Games With The Freaks (Live at Two By Two. 4th July 2026)

The live band for this set were a proper GBL who also feature on the studio album:

Vocals & Guitar - Martin Thompson

Vocals & Guitar - Simon Chester

Vocals & Guitar - Jade Emerson

Piano - GW Lang

Bass - Andy Ludbrook

Drums Micky Leach

Please consider buying the album on Bandcamp today as not only does it help us recoup some of the costs of making & releasing but it really does encourage me to want to make more music & release it in this way in the future.

I'm not allowed to sell our cover of 'Babies' by Pulp, which we played as the climax of this set, so I have popped the audio of that track on Soundcloud for you to sample for nowt.

SERIES 2

EPISODE 6

BROADCAST/RELEASE DATE: 13TH JULY 2014

Martin wants to let you all know you can follow him/abuse him on Twitter: @MusicByMeiosis

Alex and Martin conclude this series with some old “in” jokes adapted from series 1 that nobody apart from Alex and I will enjoy. We hear the answers to some Probing Questions posed to Andrew Proud of Captain Trips, a little poem Alex and Martin wrote when they were 15 year old school children and a live version of ‘Blith’ by that Brilliant Mind. We also take lots of drugs and start “tripping” or “flying” just like the cool kidz and end up bumping to an old nemesis. Will he kill us both? Yes he does.

Also we play some awesome music by:

EPISODE 5:

BROADCAST/RELEASE DATE: 6TH JULY 2014

Here we are with Episode 5! There’s some lovely music on this episode plus a little interview with a lady we suspect is not local. Alex & Martin’s friendship comes under strain as we get more tired and grumpy with each other’s presence. It all turns a bit sour after our localness is found to be intercepted but remember kids… it’s just a joke! It all goes a bit weird (but not as weird as episode 6!). Look at the awesome music we’ve got on our lovely little podcast this week:

BROADCAST/RELEASE DATE: 29TH JUNE 2014

Alex & Martin return with Episode 4! FOUR? of the Friendly Atmosphere Newcastle Music Scene Podcast.
