Product Description
CD Description
This is the first non-Levellers release from OTF recordings. It sees McDermott's 2 Hours return to the form of their highly acclaimed first studio album, The Enemy Within, combining the song-writing genius of Nick Burbridge with traditional-type tune arrangements, augmented by bass and kit drums. Core members, singer and guitarist Burbridge, fiddler Ben Paley, and bass player Matt Goorney, are joined by multi-instrumentalist Tim Cotterell and many others, including The Levellers’ Charlie Heather, to produce a record set to be a milestone in contemporary folk-rock. Produced by Tim Cotterell and Jeremy Cunningham, and mastered by Jon Sevink, the album continues their close association with The Levellers while restoring McDermotts to their own unique place in the scheme of things. "Proper folk-rock music, all lean and no cheese - a rarity in the genre! It's a definitive boundary-pushing record." (Jeremy Cunningham, The Levellers) "McDermott's 2 Hours cut the mustard." (Q magazine) McDermott's 2 Hours launch the album at this years Sold Out 'Beautiful Days' festival. Tracks: Molloy / River / Crusaders / Bone's Farewell / Crazy Jane's Day Out / The True Story Of Eugene McQuaid / Stowaway / All Soul's Night / Stand By Yourself / Lie Down And Dream Of Ireland / Trickster.

After twenty years or more in the business (with or without The Levellers) this is, quite simply, the best McDermott's album to come out of a studio. As Simon Jones in fRoots put it, "Great melodies, acerbic, canny lyrics, McDermott's finest hour may yet be to come." Or Sean McGhee in Rock'n'Reel: "Essential listening." Don't miss it. Folk-rock music at its finest.
