Making of the Album
Prominent in both The Sanctuary Recording Studio and on The Defamation of Strickland Banks
is Eric Appapoulay’s upright piano. Ben Drew explained that “Because of how old it is, and some things are slightly out of tune, it reminded me of those old hip-hop records where the sampled piano does sound a little but gritty,” “That’s why I loved it. It looks great and it’s got a proper resonance.”
In a SOS interview Eric Appapoulay describes their process during recording sessions: “It was just Ben and myself and Richard and Tom. We would be in the room together, Ben’d be on his acoustic guitar in that little doorway bit with his mic, setting down the guides. I had guitar in the Fender Twin, drums just clean, and then the bass I put through the LA2A, because I love the way it warms it up. Then we were using the bass amp as well, because we had the whole band in one room — the control room was in the drum room that you see now — so we were jamming like in a rehearsal. It had a band feeling, like Motown, where they just used to sit in one room and record together. That was the idea with this place, I wanted the whole band to feel like it was a gig scenario, playing as a band.”
fter the albums completions it shot to the top of the European charts, won several awards in 2010 and is nominated for February 2011’s Brit Awardfor 2 awards including the MasterCard British Album of the YearAward.
