FACES AT THE WINDOW - 2000
7" EP - Beat Bedsit Records, BB7001

Recorded and mixed in one punk rock evening in the winter of 2000, this 6 track EP was made up of a couple of songs written some years prior, and a few that were as then quite new. It's all pretty raw, and I'm glad now that I was able to record my first ever guitar before it expired (£10 from a car boot sale, 6 years faithful service). I also discovered a broken electric piano in the studio, so used that on a couple of songs, plus a xylophone which featured on about 20 seconds of song and was heavier than everything else I had to carry there.

Track listing:
Living Together
Our Basement Bedsit
Faces At The Window
Compulsory Euthanasia
Fuck You Mister

TALES FROM THE SATURDAY NIGHT LAUNDERETTE - 2002
Split CD Album with We Am Janet - Beat Bedsit Records, BB5006

Me and my friend Roger, who is We Am Janet, had talked about a split release for a long time before we actually made it materialise. In that time we managed to discuss formats of 12" and 7" diameter before settling on a more modest 5". The Pog songs on this CD are generally longer, slower and more downbeat than the EP, with some organs and piano helping the atmosphere, although there are moments of abrasive jollity, such as Boring Boy and Shopper's Theme (slight return). Unlike the first record, I roped in a couple of other people to lend their talents to the pot, namely Pico / Domestica celloist Bela Emerson, who supplies said instrument to three songs, and my sister Kerri, who does some crooning here and there.

SOB STORIES FROM THE ONE-STOP SLIPPER SHOP - 2003
CD Album - Heel Turn Media, HTM7
Recorded amid the rank and file of the Beat Bedsit stockroom, this was pretty much spread over Summer 2003. Features, on all but one song, the marvellous Casio MT600, which I picked up from a car boot sale (in the rain, dedicate that I am) for a single pound coin. So anticipate much modulated warble. Annalise supplies both electronic and hand-generated percussion, as well as some splendid backing chortle. As a whole, it's moderately jovial, which may have been due to the sunshine pouring through the window every time I recorded.

POGWASH - 2004
CD compilation - Hairy Chested Records, HCM004
Released by the tiny Texan label which is run by a guy in a one man electro noise assault called Boogdish. I hope to invite him over next year. Anyway, he asked if he could do a CD about a fortnight after Slipper Shop was finished, so I replied that I had no songs left but he could have a compilations worth. And that's how it happened. So here you get roughly half of Slipper Shop, a couple from Launderette, a quick show from Faces At The Window and some oddities, namely reworkings of Filth, What Trevor Said and Compulsory Euthanasia, and a raw version of Little Fishes by Patrik Fitzgerald.

THE DOG END MAN AND THE PIGEON LADY - 2004
CD album - POG5
The Dog End Man is an actual Brighton character, although I should think that most towns and cities have at least one. I haven't seen him for some time so he may have expired. This is the first album to be comprised of the Paul / Annalise / sequencer lineup. As such it's all pretty upbeat, though not necessarily cheery. The whole thing was recorded in the bedroom (as tradition dictates) and there's lots of organs and keyboards to drown out the drone of the guitar.

BOTHERING THE BUNSHOP DESPITE THE INJUNCTION - 2006
CD album - POG6
This picture tells a tale in which our intrepid commited vegan bothers a local bunshop in order to spread the good word. It doesn't work though. This is the first album to feature Deacon, and it continues the theme of gaining a member with each new release. It's generally a very upbeat affair; having said that, the dismal tugging of tearstrings is as always in attendance with some doom-laden acoustic offerings.. Today, Nowhere is the longest Pog song yet, clocking in at 11 minutes and 25 seconds.

Best album yet, although I'm bound to say that.
