Real Men

I never wanted to be like you
I never wanted to look like you
I never wanted to act like you
I never wanted to think like you
You’re a real man
You're a real man
I never wanted to read The Sun
There’s more to life than just beer and fun
Don’t enjoy drinking till I’m sick
I don’t think that that’s particularly big
You’re a real man
You're a real man
I never wanted to go out at night
Sole intention just to have a fight
I never wanted just to put it in
Any old thing that the cat dragged in
But you’re a real man
You're a real man
Never wanted to join the SAS
Never wanted to kick your ass
Never wanted to be that crass
If you’re a real man, I think I’ll pass
Are you a real man?
Are you a real man?
Build your muscles, push your chest out
You’re a real man
Touch girls’ asses, push your weight round
You’re a real man
Are you a real man?
Well, if you're a real man, I think I'll pass
Never wanted to be like you
Never wanted to look like you
Never wanted to act like you
I never wanted to think like you
I never wanted to be like you
I never wanted to look like you
I never wanted to act like you
I never wanted to think like you

Sit and Suffer

Thank you for the offer
If I need you, I will call you on the phone
But I don't expect my troubles to be
Anyone's but my own
I'll just sit here in silence
I'm simply not accustomed
To asking for the help I really need
That emotional closeness
You don't know where it will lead
I'll just sit here in silence
I'll sit and suffer in silence
I'll sit and suffer on my own
I'll sit and suffer in silence
I'll sit and suffer on my own
I never wanted to find myself
In this predicament, but here we are
The world turns, and fortunes change
With the twinkling of a star
I'll just sit here in silence
I'll sit and suffer in silence
I'll sit and suffer on my own
I'll sit and suffer in silence
I'll sit and suffer on my own
Do you understand me at all?
Do you hear what I say?
Do you understand me at all?
Do you hear what I say?
Do you understand me at all?
Do you hear what I say?
Do you understand me at all?
Do you hear?

Mr Wu's Pigs Deal, UK
The brand-new five-track DAVY DOES KENT EP is now up for pre-order!
Pairing catchy
tunes with lyrics that claw at the human underbelly, Mr Wu's Pigs lays raw but melodic vocals over jagged power chords and unrelenting drum patterns. The songs have led to Mr Wu’s Pigs drawing unexpected comparisons to acts such as Buzzcocks, T Rex, Bauhaus and Nirvana.

Mr Wu's Pigs recommends:
This is by far my favourite record of 2017. I play it all the time. It's heavy but poppy and grungy and fun.

The Land and the Garden
by Vic Mars
Everything Vic Mars does is worth checking out, but this is particularly brilliant: electronic pastoral music.

The Long Knives
by The Long Knives
I've been watching The Long Knives play great shows for the past seven years or so, and they never disappoint. This album captures them perfectly.

Higher and Higher Forever
by Zero Percent APR
Lo-fi indie that recalls the glory days of Shrimper and Shimmy Disc, where rock-solid melodies sit inside rickety instrumentation.

Nyxy Nyx - Thee 3rd Album
by Nyxy Nyx
The terrific new record from Nyxy Nyx recalls the best of the early ’90s—slow-moving, shoegaze-adjacent songs with woozy melodies.
