Call In The Crash Team marks the compelling debut from LYR—a trio that unites the evocative lyricism of Poet Laureate Simon Armitage with the sonic craftsmanship of Patrick Pearson and Richard Walters. Released on Mercury KX in 2020, the album weaves together electronic, classical, and folk elements to create immersive soundscapes rooted in modern times.
Each of the eleven tracks introduces a distinct fictional character, exploring post-industrial settings and giving voice to the overlooked and marginalized. This edition includes an A6-sized poetry book featuring the album’s lyrics and additional artwork, offering a deeper insight into LYR's inventive blend of music and poetry.
