An EP that's been in the womb for 2 years and grown only a little in that time. A paired back, simplified vision that mines the stories of nightowls, villians, the disillusioned and the isolated.

The Late Hour

Something Stiff

This is the lead track off latest EP "The Late Hour", which will be released 09/12/22 on Dismembers Club. The Late Hour is a pared back, simplified vision of psych-tinged indie folk that mines the stories of nightowls, villians, the disillusioned and the isolated. This track in particular describes a cold, dark room the night before something is due to go down, the paranoid thoughts of the protagonist and the endless time they seem to be spending in purgatory.

Something Stiff CLEAN VERSION

This is the first EP/Mini-album by Scrambled Limbs. Recorded, mixed and mastered by one guy alone in his attic studio using whatever was lying around, it attempts to tell the tale of a musician re-discovering his musical identity, without really attempting to tell that tale at all. 

Flitting from folk seen through the eyes of psych-pop to late 60s noise driven prog-lite, dancing from hypnotic off-kilter grooves across to slumping fuzz-drenched stomps, the EP is the result of hours of endless tinkering to bring you the vision of what Scrambled Limbs should be and feel like. 

I hope you like it.

It's about a dystopian future where we have been isolated so long we have forgotten how to socialise with each other, a kind of purgatory between longing and fear.

Soundblab - "This album has sonic color to burn. It’s intense, and it is lovely. A record that searches the cosmos for the deep depth of our own humanity. 9/10" 

Emerging Indie Bands - “...exploring insecurities and anxieties, with a deft skill, as, rather than leaving the listener raked with inner turmoil, the mind finds a quiet pleasure in the what could easily have become a journey of despair.” 

Videostatic - "a darker, more bewitching exploration into inner-city disillusionment"
