APR 2015 - During the re-uploading of my records I've changed the title of the album "No Play No Work" to its original title "Nuclear Kamikaze". I'd changed the name at the last minute because of the events of Fukushima at the time of release, but the whole album was made with this concept in mind, and "no play no work" didn't illustrate that at all. It's about a she kamikaze with a nuclear device, but it's also about the acceptance of nuclear energy, which makes us nuclear kamikazes.

APR 2015 - I've changed digital distributor, all records were taken down from all retailers and streaming sites but are now back on or about to be.
