about

"When m.t. scott approached us about his latest project and mentioned he was heading in a folk/country direction we were equally bemused and concerned.

Our better angels should have reminded us that whatever scott does it is not going to within the realms of perceived genre norms.

He has drip-fed us the tracks on this album at each stage of their development for a while now. Each time there have been subtle changes to the form and content with a marked improvement at each stage in the process.

He wants to call this 'Country Rock' which is fair enough, but, as usual, with his work, it is much more than that. Starting with an obvious nod to a certain band from Prestwich (mining and melding several parts of their career) and then moving through phases of country and folk music with his usual anarchic abandon, scott has created a unique suite of songs.

The addition of Josephine Dechamps' vocals towards the latter end of the production process was an inspired move and added that certain magical element that was necessary to fully conclude the project.

The subject matter, as with all his work, is both biographical and autobiographical, inspired meta-fiction in musical form with tangential psychogeography woven into the cover of the release and the backbone of the collection. There's the odd in-joke also for those of you steeped enough in the lore of the music of the last 35 odd years

He continues an exceptional run of groundbreaking and unique music with his trademark witty, sardonic, and sometimes cynical view of the world.

Embrace his vision and abandon your preconceptions.
