I make noises in the bands Meursault and Regretta Garbo. Fueled by films and music.

Well whaddya know, our new album is out today!

"their most ambitious, fully realised collection yet" - The Scotsman

"Meursault’s sixth album, recorded on the Isle of Skye, ably captures the soulful, transfixing performances Pennycook and his seven companions are known for" - The Skinny

The first reviews are in for our new album! This one means a lot to us and we're all deeply moved by the warm response it's getting
Meursault album review: Meursault - The Skinny
The sixth record from Neil Pennycook journeys through a post-apocalyptic future with chaotic synths, mournful strings and feedback-riddled crescendos in tow.

Rewatched Big Trouble in Little China and I'd somehow forgotten about this guy. So much sadness in those eyes. Those many eyes.

Finally watched Tsui Hark's The Blade, one of the bleakest, most nihilistic martial arts film I've ever seen. Absolutely furious filmmaking.

Mishima confirmed on rewatch as top-tier Schrader. Plus maybe my favourite Philip Glass score.

Love when you pause a film for a pee break or something and you return and notice the pause hits so hard

Myth by Beach House never fails to make me melt into a puddle. One of our best bands.

Excited to announce we're playing two shows at Edinburgh's beautiful and intimate Pianodrome, a venue made entirely from disused pianos, in July to support the launch of our new album. Cannae wait to play these songs live!

getting misty-eyed reading about the potential that John Woo saw in Chow Yun-fat (from a 2004 interview with Robert K. Elder)

Really hope Villeneuve's Rendezvous With Rama adaptation has the bit where the guy chases a giant crab to get his stolen lunch back

Woke up still thinking about the Succession finale, watched Mercenaries from Hong Kong, finished a song and now heading through to Glasgow to see Andy Shauf. Not a bad day.
