Review by Robert Cooke

The Witch And The Robot is a weird name for a band. On Safari is a weird name for an album. Let’s face it; calling a song ‘You Alr»

'on safari' is the debut album from the witch and the robot, possibly the strangest new act you'll encounter this year. blending dark psychedelia, folk, shanties and spoken word, these lake district dwellers prove that the darkest music often comes from the prettiest places. the lakes have long inspired poets, painters and romantics but the witch and the robot have filtered that inspiration into something dark, intense and meat-strewn. their weird, wonderful, and, at times, unsettling live show includes a masked mascot, dancers, bunting, custard pies and of course, a meat raffle. beautifully packaged with original artwork by lubik and goodnight, and classic lake district photography by the guitarist's dad.
