Newest Forum Update:

"Hi everyone, I thought it was about time I posted something up to let you know that things are still happening. Though the guys are taking some time off work is still going on for the new tracks. The studio live recordings are currently being mixed and should hopefully be ready by the Spring. I've heard the bands new recording of 'Someone's Calling' and it's brilliant. The guys are still working on the new songs as well and still plan to release them this year.

As well as that plans are also being readied for tours which will include more of the new tracks. 2013 promises to be one of the most exciting years for fans of Modern English for a very long time. Watch this forum for more information, 

Richard

P.S. special thanks to all of you for keeping the forum alive. If only more fans were as forum chatty as you."
