about

The fifth collaboration between The Slums of Mediocrity and Samuel Bean is more of a singer-songwriter affair. Mostly a folkier driven set, with grunge, trip-hop and some slight shoegaze elements thrown in for good measure. Recorded in various spirts between December 2016 and October 2017.

PLEASE DOWNLOAD THIS RECORD. All purchases come with a 28-page PDF booklet with credits, lyrics and photos.
