In April of 1978, Graham Hatman got kicked out of his flat for non payment of rent. He crashed at Mick Frumpton's house and wrote what would become the lyrics for Night on Skull Mountain over an intense weekend of drinking. Needing a new living situation, he decided to abscond to his mother's English country cottage. The band followed, and within a span of a week they had fully arranged the songs that would become Night on Skull Mountain. The band was able to negotiate discounted studio time at Flatley Hall in West Bromwich and recorded the album soon after. | In April of 1978, Graham Hatman got kicked out of his flat for non payment of rent.
