Limited edition 12" black vinyl
GoldFlakePaint: 'Loaded with extra bite and swagger, Weird Country is a bold new chapter, a fiery burst of indie rock that illuminates all the myriad people and places that inspired it inside its distinct frame.'
The List ★★★★ - Illustrates different sides of Glasgow's musical influences with personality and humour. The record's themes of cultural openness, internationalism and self-critique aren't far from the surface, yet they're delivered in such glowing, self-possessed fashion as to be only available to those who wish to pick them out. The music is for all.
The Scotsman ★★★★ - There is much of Glasgow’s freewheeling 80s indie sound in Weird Country, a joyous looseness and a charming twang, as well as deliberate nods to Pavement and The Velvet Underground.
The Skinny ★★★★ - Weird Country is a triumph, a clear step forward from Savage Mansion. A playful, witty record - which urges the listener not to take themselves (or the band) too seriously, while still finding time to tackle some ambitious themes.
The National - 'These are songs that reveal themselves in increments and change meaning depending on context, like an abalone shell shimmering in the sun. It feels special.
For The Rabbits - 'A beacon of creativity and hope, Savage Mansion’s second step is an intriguing one, a gentle re-imagining of their sound that further marks them out as one of Scotland’s most intriguing new bands'

lyrics
I was a famous writer
I had a velvet brogue, Gloria
Will you mirror me once? Try me again
I wanna be your only boy, I wanna be your only friend
That’s how I roll
Attache at the embassy of the stars
That’s my desire, that’s my design
Somewhere, somewhere to make my feelings known
two hundred, three hundred and fifty
you’re making them known
So I’m not alone
What about something leather?
A stone that’s cast
in satin sheets
well
What about when I’m low, at the end of the week
Is it all black and white?
Performative kindness
and actions that are second to poetry
I’m no expert but
You’re a puppeteer
Somewhere, somewhere to make my feelings known
Twelve thousand five hundred and fifty you’re making them known
Somewhere, somewhere - you’ll be fine
Is it heaven or hell, is it real life?
Somewhere, somewhere - you’ll be fine
They’ll mention your name
Don’t come here again!
Don’t come here again with a declaration of love
Don’t come here again, again and again again and again again and again
Somewhere, somewhere to make my feelings known
Actions speak louder than words but you’re making them known
Somewhere, somewhere - you’ll be fine
Is it heaven or hell or is it real life?
Somewhere, somewhere - you’ll be fine
Your name is your name
I don't hear a lot of this kind of music, gives me ,loose Sonic Youth vibes. Everything about it is cool, like too cool for school cool. I want to skip class and spray paint an alley with these people. Kyle Zarnoch
