Oh no
Quote:
Multinational electro-funk band Willy Gunk have postponed the release of their debut album - by 15 years.
The album has also been renamed. Where it was once called These Days II, now it bears the name American Autocracy. Amoungst the other changes, Oli Springsteen has been replaced on triangle by his distant relative Bruce, rhythm bassist Erik Moosef*cker JR has been replaced by the band's touring musician Hugh McDonald and tambourine player David Geordie has been replaced by the spirit of Keith Moon.
The band's newly (self-)appointed lead singer and songwriter Sebaastian Van Der Gallagher spoke about the news on the band's website.
"We feel that parting company with half the band is the correct way to go, to ensure the future of Willy Gunk as an artistic and financial entity. Erik had no desire to play any new material, choosing to focus on playing the same old hits, and Oli was simply a nuisance. Nobody cares about David so I won't go into that. Jack and Joe fully support me with this endeavour, and we're also withdrawing all our concert commitments to focus on our album. If things go according to plan, it should be ready by 2025."
Fellow remaining members Jack Jagger-Richards and Joe Forgotten-Surname could not be reached for comment, but it's likely that they are hunting down and killing session musicians to prevent being replaced.
These are dark days indeed for members of Willy Gunk.
