More goodness from Great Pop Supplement! A new 7" by Phosphorescent limited to a paltry 250 copies. The press info sums this up absolutely perfectly. It's a direct blend of Will Oldham and Jeff Mangum ala Neutral Milk Hotel. There's almost no point adding anything else to it cos I'll be wasting my time and your eyes. It's excellent though and if you fancy some psychedelic country pop with a brass section then you'll be wanting this puppy. I Am A Full Grown Man is well worth checking out!

What their label says...

Up next comes the first UK outing by Athens, GA singer songwriter Matthew Houck's ever changing psychedelic folk/blues band PHOSPHORESCENT. Kind of middle ground between Jeff Mangum and Will Oldham, 2 tunes of gloriously ramshackle disjointed blues delivered in Houck's plaintive, cracked voice. Wonderfully weird yet beautiful poetry delivered among a psychedelic wash of horns, pump organ, pedal steel, choral voices and fuzz guitar. Warmly intimate, soulful psych bettered perhaps only in recent times by Neutral Milk Hotel's mighty "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea". Heartache and pure uplifting joy in equal measure over 2 songs of 5 minutes plus, each.

A very limited, numbered pressing of 250 only in ace packaging.
