It has been a little while but Eugene McGuinness is back. We'll be offering much more insight into his marvellous new album, due for release in early 2012, soon, but for now here's Lion, a new song that does all its own talking. And a lot of it too. Download Lion, here: http://www.eugenemcguinness.net/<br /><br />Currently touring as part of Miles Kane’s band, Eugene explains the following about Lion: "I really don't know what to say about this one. It's just meant to be the biggest 'fuck off' my soul could muster."<br /><br />The accompanying video, shot by Will Lovelace and Dylan Southern (The Fall, Elbow, Arctic Monkeys) sees a suited and booted Eugene flanked by a surreal troupe of dancers in the crumbling industrial wasteland of his native Essex suburbs and captures the intriguing contrasts of his songwriting - equal parts stark and playful; as of the arthouse as it is the public house - perfectly.<br /><br />Lion will also be available as a digital bundle with the track Frosty, from 5th December. (RUG428D1).
