mclusky - the world is still here and so are we

The heralded UK band’s first album since 2004 and first for Ipecac Recordings. 

Having formed in the late nineteen-nineties and releasing music, if that is what it was, from 2000-2004, Mclusky disbanded soon afterwards in a slow motion farce of not enough drama to get much press off the back of it. Now they are back fuelled initially by spite but now enjoying it too much not to do it, and playing to crowds in the UK, US and Australia which are much bigger - and more hygienically inclined - than in their so-called heyday. So far nobody has complained, except for one guy in Leeds (and he was clearly on ketamine). They are writing a new album - entitled 'the world is still here and so are we' due for release in may 2025.

mclusky were a band between 1999 and 2005 and now they are a band again

I know, mindblowing. go wonder at the night.

mclusky firmly believe that all djs should be French

mclusky are a band of three

don't worry, that's not a riddle

or maybe it is? who can say

imagine why they'd be doing shows now (or then)

OR simply rearrange the following letters - nwe albmu

The band will be kicking off the album release with a UK headline tour in May 2025, as well as UK & EU Festivals throughout the Summer, followed by more UK & EU headlining in the Fall before heading to the US and Australia.
