Francis Lung - Nu Lyf

Francis Lung is the pseudonym of Wu Lyf bassist, Tom McClung. And, in typical Wu Lyf fashion, little is know about this ethereal side-project, and I expect it to remain cryptic for a while to come.

What we can grasp from this is that the rumbustious growl of Wu Lyf's spittle tone has been replaced by McClung's equally sombre coos. While Wu Lyf evoke excitement through riotous delivery, edgy in its unpolished and raspy shunt, McClung does the exact same thing through honest and bare sincerity. Equally as ghostly is the minimal approach which confirms, if you did not already believe, that the Manchester group are far from a PR hyped, industry stunt. They are the real deal.
