Donkey Inching’, the Cellophane Suckers’ ninth studio album, is set for release in September 2026.
Unwavering and stubborn as a donkey, the Cellophane Suckers follow their very own path at their very own pace. The band, decried as “lead-swallowing” high-speed rock ’n’ rollers, stoically let chords linger and celebrate feedback, reducing rather than harmonising, then picking up the speed when you least expect it and slowing down shortly afterwards to roll on in a Dadaist fashion… the drums become a machine, the guitars increasingly embodying ying and yang. With “Execution Day”, they pay tribute to Spencer P. Jones, whom one might well cite as a musical influence, and Neil Young is also honoured, whose Wall of Sound goes down well with the Suckers. The fact that a text by Charles Bukowski is also “set to music” may be down to their love for red wine…
“Donkey Inching”… creeps stoically and stubbornly, like a donkey, into your ears.
