mclusky - the world is still here and so are we

It’s been 21 years since the bleakly funny Welsh noise-rock greats Mclusky released their last album, but that’s about to change. Mclusky got back together in 2020, and they raised money for a long-delayed US tour by releasing a four-song EP… they share an absolutely deranged new track with an even-more-deranged video. – Stereogum

… “People Person” …  finds Andrew Falkous sounding as sneering and sarcastic as ever over a pummeling rhythm section and plenty of noisy guitar freakouts. The song comes with a video directed by Remy Lamont, and just like the last single, the video provides as much social commentary as the song itself. – BrooklynVegan

formed in cardiff, wales in the late ‘90s, mclusky quickly became one of the most beloved underground punk bands of their era, known for their biting lyrics, angular riffs, and chaotic live shows. The band released three critically-acclaimed albums – mclusky do dallas (2002), the difference between me and you is that I’m not on fire (2004) and my pain and sadness is more sad and painful than yours (2000) – before disbanding in 2005. Since reforming in 2019, they’ve continued to bring their ferocious energy to stages, with their fourth album, the world is still here and so are we, out may 9th via ipecac recordings. mclusky is damien sayell (bass, vocals), jack egglestone (drums, vocals, percussion), and andrew falkous (guitar, vocals)
