What their label says...

Lupen Crook’s absence has been noted ...but now, with his band The Murderbirds teetering in the wings, Lupen Crook is about to re-emerge, poignant and prepared.
l‘Matthew’s Magpie’ opens to the brittle rhythm of the man’s acoustic 8 string and is soon joined by his distinctive, uncomfortable vocal, here perching on the edge of every sentence.
‘Matthews Magpie’ is a punk rock affair, sharp and unashamedly straight to the point. Of the FOUR b-sides ‘The
Hardest Way Home’ is likely to become a live favourite, this version grooving from beginning to end, and ‘22 U and The Sa-10 Sounds’ , a home recording, sees Crook left to his own devices, with thrift shop Casio keyboards and quirky
melodies flying left right and centre, a lo-fi pop song, an original and confidently colourful finale to this set of
recordings.
Limited to 750 only.
