THE ICONIC #1 DEBUT ALBUM FROM BRITISH LEGENDS MANSUN IS NOW AVAILABLE ON SINGLE VINYL LP. Reissued in limited quantities for RSD 2022 & quickly selling out, Kscope are now proud to issue this album on black vinyl. Originally released in February 1997, the Platinum selling ‘Attack Of The Grey Lantern’ debuted at Number 1 in the UK album chart & included the hit singles ‘Wide Open Space’, ‘She Makes My Nose Bleed’, ‘Taxloss’ & ‘Stripper Vicar’. Mansun were one of the most iconic & innovative British bands of the late 90’s. They released four classic albums ? ‘Attack Of The Grey Lantern’ (1997), ‘Six’ (1998), ‘Little Kix’ (2000) & the compilation ‘Kleptomania’ (2004). As Draper puts it “The Grey Lantern is like a comic-book hero ? the album is about this village of people with really disgusting morals & the Grey Lantern sorts them out. I suppose the Grey Lantern’s me. I wouldn’t have a cape, but there are definitely characters on the record ? Albert Taxloss, Chad, Dark Mavis. At the end of the album, it all gets resolved & you find Mavis is actually the Stripper Vicar.” Frontman Paul Draper released his new solo album ‘Cult Leader Tactics’ in January 2022. Kscope are proud to present ‘Attack Of The Grey Lantern’ on Standard Black LP.
