Sam & The Plants - In The Scare Shed

Partially separating the frost bitten fells that make up
Lancashire's lucid landscape are small clusters of naked
black trees and hedgerow that provide shelter for a host
of disgruntled inhabitants hibernating from typically cruel
British winters.

In a wood not dissimilar to this you'll find a welcoming
co-inhabitant who spends his time making fractured folk
songs with limited electricity and a wide range of mutant,
mechanical music machines ranging from zygotic zithers
to 10 second tape loops, lutes and flutes. Imagine Delia
Derbyshire in deepest Lancashire recording a
Nepalese Incredible String Band with members of
Os Mutantes and Faust keeping the generator warm
and the kitchen operating in audible proximity.

Sam McLoughlin's viscously self-sufficient, fair-weather
commune band make the type of acid soaked folk and
handicraft punk-rock that unified Gong and Soft
Machine fans before he was born.

Limited to 500 copies.
