David Cronenberg's Wife

Described as "where genius meets idiocy"[1] by BBC Radio 2's Mark Lamarr, the band's lyrics combine dark subject matter with an off-kilter humour.

[2] The album was recorded by Simon Trought (formerly of Tompaulin and Hayman, Watkins, Trout & Lee), Dot Allison, and guitarist Ian Button (formerly of the Thrashing Doves and Death in Vegas).

[4] In August 2009, the band released their fourth single "The Fight Song" and played a second session on Marc Riley's BBC 6 Music show.

The band's second album Hypnagogues was released in November 2009, with a noticeably more personal feel to the lyrics and a less harsh sound, even approaching alt country on some of the tracks.

The band had two previously unreleased tracks featured on Trashmouth Record's 2014 compilation Thinking About Moving to Hastings along with songs by Fat White Family, Pit Ponies and Warmduscher.
