My Nth Bit of Strange in Umpteen Years is a performance-only album[1] by Scottish singer-songwriter King Creosote, debuted in October 2009, at Fence Records' Hallowe'en Homegame Festival.

"[2] The album features "Bats in the Attic", which would subsequently appear on Creosote's Mercury Prize-nominated collaboration with Jon Hopkins, Diamond Mine.

I realised I had to make a stand, and I came up with an album that people won’t have to buy, but will have to hear live to fully appreciate.

I’d love for the songs to become popular, and for me to take the show further afield, but because the album will change from one rendition to the next, I’m also hoping to attract the collectors.

"[3] Regarding the album's composition, and its unconventional mode of distribution, Creosote noted, "These new songs are more personal, and there’s lyrical freedom in knowing they’re not going to be pored over [as with a commercial release].
