Leeds musician spumspumman has announced that his debut album ‘Three Days on a Tricycle’ will be released on the 24th March via Tireless Idealist. The self-produced album will feature 12 tracks including ‘Anatomy Factory’ – releasing 17th February.

The 90s influences of Beck, Elliott Smith and Sonic Youth are hard to ignore on ‘Three Days on a Tricycle’, with spumspumman’s experimental lo-fi production sensibilities sounding like a breath of claggy air in today’s clean & pristine sonic landscape.

The album’s initial single ‘Anatomy Factory’ flits from a clean, sombre verse to a distorted, jarring chorus with an ilk of Nirvana’s ‘In Utero’, transitioning to a wavy, psychedelic bridge that would fit more neatly into The Vine’s back catalogue. Lyrically, ‘Anatomy Factory’ provides an introverted look into the personal makeup of spumspumman, introducing anxious and paranoid lyrical themes that can be expected throughout the rest of the album.

All tracks written and performed by Stan Braddock
