The Pop Corporation

Yes! Mclusky are back! Of course, they’re the most clever-clever knuckleheads who ever graced a bleeding earhole, which means their fans can err on the side of very devoted, but shurrup, they’re fuckin’ dynamite and it’s great they’re back!

Back how? Well, with an absolute glorious racket, they’ve put out their first music in a very long time, a four-track double A-side (or whatever), called ‘Unpopular Parts of a Pig’/’The Digger You Deep’.

There’s also ‘Fan Learning Difficulties’ and ‘That Was My Brain On Elves’, and they say:

hey, look at this – it’s a double a side.
IS IT? yes, yes it is.
BUT THERE’S NO SUCH THING ANYMORE! right. well, there is if i say so.
WHY? why anything?
OKAY, WHY NOW? better question. well, we recorded it and thought we might release it in order to raise money towards the ridiculously expensive us visas we require if we’re to finish what we started in that stupid, wonderful country.
THAT’S PRETTY DIRECT! That’s entertainment, boy face.
ARE THERE MORE SONGS? yup.
WHEN WILL THEY BE RELEASED? next year. an album is half recorded. we just need to write and record the second half but that’ll be easy.
WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE JANES ADDICTION SONG? Ace of Spades.
OKAY, I GET IT, YOU’RE ZONING OUT. I ASSUME THAT’S ALL FOR NOW THEN? yes. yes it is.

A new album then? Some gigs? We hope so! Put your hand in your pocket and support them. We heard Andrew Falkous was working in a Tesco or something, so let’s stop that being a thing eh?
