about

Second album from David Cronenberg's Wife, Hypnagogues (meaning a drug that induces sleep), a year on from their critically acclaimed debut Bluebeard’s Rooms.

The single track “The Fight Song” landed the band a well deserved Marc Riley session on BBC 6 Music.

Hypnagogues is a selection of eloquent kitchen sink dramas set to Tom Mayne’s trademark sardonic lyrical humour and the bands bright surf-psych guitars but this time, a distinct country & western spirit haunts the album, particularly with some of the more melancholic folksy tracks such as “In the Limo” and “Desperate Little Man”. BBC London’s Gary Crowley described the first DCW album as “a cross between Clinic and Suicide” but this album demonstrates a deeper respect for Jonathan Richman and the Velvets.

In his search for the 3 keys to life, Jack Medley lost the keys to the lock up, so while he, and we, gained spiritually, we lost sight of the merch... Happily, Jules found the keys whilst digging up his latest batch of courgettes at the allotment, leading to a rediscovery of a bounty of Blang Stuff.
