Mclusky is a Welsh noise rock band formed in Cardiff in 1996, known for their abrasive sound, dark humor, and confrontational lyrics. They released three critically acclaimed albums: 'My Pain and Sadness is More Sad and Painful Than Yours' (2000), 'McLusky Do Dallas' (2002) and 'The Difference Between Me and You Is That I'm Not on Fire' (2004)—before splitting up in 2005 due to internal tensions.

Falkous later formed Future of the Left, continuing the raw, sardonic style. In the late 2010s, mclusky began performing reunion shows. Eventually returning in full with new material and a revitalized live presence. On May 9, a brand new album will be released (via Mike Patton's Ipecac Recordings): 'the world is still here and so are we'. So glad we have them back. This world needs a mclusky!
