CRIG is the debut solo project from the singer from Leeds post-punk outfit AUTOBAHN. A lo-fi, satirical take on the singer-songwriter tradition, reminiscent of early Guided By Voices. These are raw, unfiltered diary entries, delivered with directness and a DIY spirit. Here’s how the man himself describes it:
CRIG is Vegas Elvis,
CRIG is a late, but caring midwife,
CRIG is a butterfly that never dies,
CRIG is a bong hit of 20 Marlboros on a summer's night.
CRIG is a denuclearised rocket,
CRIG is a satellite drifting into space,
CRIG is a burning rain forest,
CRIG is a jellyfish lazing in a sea of disgrace.
CRIG is a fan of the underdog,
CRIG is a world without fear,
CRIG is Winona Ryder in Heathers,
CRIG is Evel Knievel's rear wheel.
CRIG isn't a battle,
Or a fight to kill,
CRIG is for future,
CRIG is free will.
