McLusky has released a new song titled “People Person”, accompanied by a video directed by Remy Lamont. McLusky, formed in Cardiff, Wales, in the late 1990s, gained attention for their sharp lyrics, angular guitar riffs, and dynamic live performances.

After disbanding in 2005, they reformed in 2019. Their fourth album, The World Is Still Here and So Are We, is scheduled for release on May 9, 2025, via Ipecac Recordings. The current lineup includes Damien Sayell (bass, vocals), Jack Egglestone (drums, vocals, percussion), and Andrew Falkous (guitar, vocals). Read our interview with mclusky.
