about

Well, no one necessarily needed, wanted, or even asked for it, but here it is anyway…
The Bucky archive! Vol.2
Our mostly previously unreleased or at least hard-to-find songs, our rare gems, bootleg series, legacy, dowry, treasure trove, our box set (admittedly without the box)…our very own Dead Sea Scrolls…
OR, in slightly less grandiose terms – our juvenilia, leftovers, crumbs, sweepings, and old shit.

Lots of different kinds of songs on here: rockers, soppy ones, live or ‘field’ recordings, experiments, acoustic demos, songs we can neither actually remember writing or recording, Street in Somerset-centric songs, songs written for really ultra-specific purposes - but most of them, for better or often worse, still sound exactly like us!
