i sure am getting sick of this bowling alley follows mclusky's 2025 album the world is still here and so are we, which was their first new album in twenty years, with "i know computer" arriving as the first preview of the mini collection of songs, which will be released digitally in March, and on physical formats in May.
Speaking about i sure am getting sick of this, guitarist and vocalist Andrew "Falco" Falkous says: "content. it drives the modern music world. photos. opinions. more photos. more opinions (please note - not all photos and opinions are bad, just 99 per cent of them). how about - and indulge me here - music? that content-y enough for you? fact is we can’t stop writing, at least at the moment. it’s fun (that’s all it needs to be). it’s the common denominator of band. only death will slow us down (note - it won’t stop us).
"the idea for this release started as a bit of a stop-gap - a thing with which to help promote the north american tour - and ended up as something else entirely. ‘i know computer’ and ‘as a dad’ are new and are singles (they may make the next album, who can say, it’s already half-recorded and you will like it). damien probably likes ‘i am computer’ a bit too much but that’s okay, the heart wants what the heart wants.
"‘spock culture’ and ‘hi! we’re on strike’ were recorded during the the world sessions. why didn’t they make the album? i’m not sure. lyrically they are important historical documents, up there with the pusheen the cat books and/or the US constitution.
"‘fan learning difficulties’ and ‘that was my brain on elves’ have only had a digital release before and are, to quote british children from forty years ago, ‘skill’. hopefully you can agree that i - and by osmosis, all of us - have read a lot of books. - falco x"
