Album Info

Less than a year after releasing his debut, Andy has returned with the Phantom Pains EP a 6-track EP that casually defies the conventions he established for himself on his first release. Recording the EP in a single room with no separation between instruments, Andy and his long time producer Tony Buchen have discarded many of the formalities of the studio in favour of a raw sound that speaks to the vulnerability implicit in Andy’s lyrics. Phantom Pains may prove to be Bull’s musical coming-of-age. “A lot of the things I used to be very concerned with, musically and personally, started to fall away, and continue to fall away, like a period of correction. I guess I like this idea of a necessary correction” says Bull, who’s elegant lyrics reveal a surprising melancholia, as on the title track, a story about a man who cuts off his own hands to atone for a shameful past, or ‘Dog’, a song about killing a menacing dog who silently stalks him, (a song which also happens to feature the haunting vocal flourishes of his old touring buddy Lisa Mitchell).

Phantom Pains Ep

Andy Bull on 23.01.2012

Wow. I have only just jumped on the Andy Bull band wagon after hearing his version of "Everybody wants to rule the world" on JJJ's Like a version vol 7. I ordered this ep and his previous album Were too young. I love them both but this EP is truely amazing. His voice is absolutely incredible and is showcased so beautifully on my favourite track "My Street". This guy doesnt take himself too seriously but is so talented and should be a household name.
