Ubiquitous Meh!: SouthWay Gothic

Posted on the 04 June 2019 by Hctf @hctf

Luke Richards of freak folk punk outfit Zapoppin' has released a flurry if solo albums with his solo project Ubiquitous Meh!, playing synthesizers, organ, drum machine as well stepping up to the mike for some off-kilter singing. His latest is called SouthWay Gothic. It's an exercise in some weird primal scream therapy by repeating It's Just Like Real Life< over and over again, but also lo-fi tribute to early Depeche Mode with the catchy Race Against Rockism.

He walks the tightrope between avant-garde and electro-pop> For lack of better term DIY prog New Wave will have to do, with the Have You Been To The Fair? as a serious contender for underground dance parties - think Mike Oldfield after being exposed to Gang of Four records for quite some time.

SouthWay Gothic is a self-released album. Buy it (CD, cassette, name-your-price digital) from his website.

  1. My Excuse
