Friar Tuck

Julian Cope
2024, Head Heritage

And so the adventures of Robin H. Hood continue! The Prince of Fried has brung forth 12 brand new humdingers: all hummable and lyrically compelling and replete with wah-acoustic guitars and beautiful orchestrations of Mellotron 400 from Liverpool’s Blondest. So inhale the garage fuzz dub of ‘R in the Hood’; the mantric powerdrive of ‘Four Jehovahs in a Volvo Estate’; the sentimental Pete Burns lamentations of ‘In Spungent Mansions’… and who could resist the affectionate micro-trolling of ‘Will Sergeant’s Blues’?
