The whole thing became a project of ours, and we gradually began increasing the depth of the pieces by bringing in keys and other various parts. Musically, it’s the most enjoyment I’ve ever gotten out of playing a collection of songs.
“We played a few shows at a local hotspot for the modern beatniks of Manchester called the Rose & Monkey Hotel. “When everything went to shit with the Covid pandemic, we realised that if we wanted to continue playing live shows we’d have to drastically change the sound and really roll down the amps,” lead singer Thomas Haywood explains.
The project evolved from a series of stripped-back shows, the band falling in love with their new-found approach and finding themselves wanting to dive into their music and explore its sonic depth via additional instrumentation and experimentation. The Lounge Lizard Sessions is a collection of rearranged compositions more suited to socially distanced and intimate performances. Pre-orders of the album via the band’s official website will gain exclusive access to The Lounge Lizard live-stream taking place on July 24 th. Limited to just 500 copies on CD and 500 on vinyl, it will arrive a little over a year since the release of their critically acclaimed album Fantasies Of A Stay At Home Psychopath and features reimagined songs from the record alongside other favourites from their catalogue. The Blinders have announced a brand new live album – The Lounge Lizard Sessions – out July 23 rd via Modern Sky. “‘Fantasies Of A Stay At Home Psychopath’ is an essential document and soundtrack for these quite frankly dystopian times. “drowsy post-punk, marrying the grimmest of Joy Division with Bad Seeds” “one of this country’s greatest rising bands… the sound of our times” “brooding post-punk… a fusion of IDLES and Nick Cave” “The band incorporate influences from the likes of IDLES and solo-era John Lennon… a particularly penetrating, bruising listen” LISTEN HERE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED ALBUM FANTASIES OF A STAY AT HOME PSYCHOPATH OUT NOW It does not store any personal data.PRE ORDER HERE RELEASE REIMAGINED VERSION OF ‘MULE TRACK’ The cookie is set by the GDPR Cookie Consent plugin and is used to store whether or not user has consented to the use of cookies.

If, however, you do longer sessions, put this on your list of ‘pieces of essential kit’!įor details of stockists and other Kevin Nash tackle, visit Elton Murphy Yes, there are cheaper and, if you only do overnighters and money is an issue, I’d say maybe try a different one and spend you money on other tackle. He didn’t want to crawl out of his bivvy and the fish weren’t feeding, anyway!Īll in all, this is a good bedchair for the session angler. The fact that it tipped it down for the whole three days that we were fishing meant that the bed got some serious sleeping on by my mate, too. I could sleep on that instead of my bed at home!” “There’s nothing wrong with the Outlaw one I’ve got, but that is so much more comfortable. The reaction I got from my friend when he borrowed it was exactly what I was hoping for. it’s comfortable, well put together and, having been designed by somebody who knows what it’s like to spend a long time on a bedchair, it’s well thought out! With the wide ‘mud feet’, this bed isn’t moving anywhere once it’s set up! Of course, there’s a wipe-clean cover on the foot area, as us carp anglers tend to be a bit messy! The inbuilt pillow means that you don’t need to strap on a separate cushion (or scrunch up a jumper in order to make a pillow!) and the leg adjustments are simple, effective and perfect for getting the bed set up just right. The bed itself is nice and wide, strong and very comfortable to lie on.
