Played small club show at Madame Jojo’s

At the beginning of 2009, the band played a small club show at Madame Jojo’s in London , their first in the capital since the NME Big Gig the previous year. During the set, the band featured new songs “Imaginary Pleasures” and “In Silver Forest”, together with the previously aired “Moonhead” and “Valley of the Calm Trees”. In March 2009, it was reported that the band had been told to re-record parts of their second album, after it was rejected by label Polydor . Reynolds said “we’ve made a really dense, psychedelic record” and that “it isn’t the right thing for us [the band]”. In an interview with BBC News , Reynolds revealed that “Moonhead” and new track “Marble Fields and the Hydrolight Head of Delusion” were “probably going to make it”, and that they were working with ” Simian Mobile Disco production” during April–May 2009. Reynolds added that “Valley of the Calm Trees” had been retitled “The Parhelion”, to reflect its lyrical content. James Ford of Simian Mobile Disco confirmed working with the band later in the year, stating in an interview with Newsbeat that they were “…trying to keep it melodic and vocal because that’s one of their great strong points”.
