mclusky has announced an upcoming 6-song EP from the recently reactivated group. Out on March 20, the EP is titled i sure am getting sick of this bowling alley, releasing via Ipecac Recordings. The EP features two songs only available digitally previously, plus four new songs.

The band released the world is still here and so are we last year.

"The idea for this release starts 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," says the band's Falco.

The more you know.

i sure am getting sick of this bowling alley track listing:

1.    i know computer

2.    as a dad

3.    spock culture

4.    hi! we’re on strike

5.    fan learning difficulties

6.    that was my brain on elves

Difference Between Me and You is That I'm Not on Fire

Super producer of such illustrious bands as McLusky, Nirvana, and Bush, (SERIOUSLY STEVE WTF?) Steve Albini recently said that McLusky is the best band working in England right now.
