Grey Tickles, Black Pressure

Grey Tickles, Black Pressure is the third solo album by American musician John Grant.

[1] Grant stated that he wanted to get "angrier and moodier" on the album, although he enjoyed the process of making it more than his previous two.

[2] The album's trailer features Grant in the midst of a psychotic break, covered in blood and wielding a croquet mallet as a weapon.

[2] The album features three guests: English singer Tracey Thorn features on the track "Disappointing", American singer Amanda Palmer provides backing vocals on "You & Him", and English drummer Budgie plays the drums on every track.

[4] NME named it "one of the albums of the year" and praised both its personal lyrics and pop melodies.
