Like Yer Wounds Too

by Poor Performer

supported by

Andy Waltzer An outstanding album I've quickly developed an addiction to. Clever & compelling lyrics, melodies that get right under the skin, bits that will make you laugh and parts that could make you cry if you were capable of crying. It's a varied thali of sounds as well, from dizzy waltzes to a kind of back street Brill building feel to a few songs that conjure Songs For Sale era Vic Godard. So good. Buy it & if you're like me & want a CD, download it & burn it on to a CD-R. You're welcome.

Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
For years, Simon Rivers' The Bitter Springs has released amazing albums, EPs and singles of his brilliantly comedic, literate pop songs and oddball experimental forays.

Now he's re-emerged as Poor Performer, and in a frenzy of writing and recording unleashes not only his debut solo work (on vinyl and downloads), but put together a bonus CD EP of worthy songs which he couldn't fit on the album . . . songs that might have been accompanying singles had it not been for an era of massive vinyl-pressing delays for such things.

Includes unlimited streaming of Like Yer Wounds Too via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

A work of considerable power and subtlety. Certainly a grower but I was hooked on first listen and it seems to improve on subsequent plays. Well done to everyone involved and good luck for the future, hopefully a long and successful future. simon1956smith
