THE ICONIC #1 DEBUT ALBUM FROM BRITISH LEGENDS MANSUN CELEBRATED WITH SPECIAL 21ST ANNIVERSARY EDITION

FOLLOWING EX-FRONTMAN PAUL DRAPER'S SOLO SUCCESS AND UK TOUR WITH ATTACK OF THE GREY LANTERN

Mansun were one of the most iconic and innovative British bands of the late 90s with Parlophone. They released four classic albums – Attack of the Grey Lantern (1997), Six (1998), Little Kix (2000) and the compilation Kleptomania following the band’s split – as well as a popular and now rare series of EPs. Kscope, having now acquired this impressive catalogue, are running a thorough reissue series that delves into a treasure trove of previously unreleased audio and visual material, including the much awaited full remaster of their #1 album Attack of the Grey Lantern.

The band’s output launched them into a fervent cult following, which now holds the annual UK Mansun Convention and started the petition that called for frontman Paul Draper to release his debut solo album Spooky Action in August 2017. The solo album, also released on Kscope, soared to #19 in the UK album charts and led to a sold out UK solo tour, during which he performed Mansun's definitive and most popular track "Wide Open Space", and its live recording features on Draper's new live album Live at Scala. Due to fan-driven popular demand, Paul then played an ambitious second solo tour in early 2018, performing Spooky Action as well as Attack of the Grey Lantern.

The audio has been fully remastered from the original master tapes by long-time Mansun collaborator P-Dub (Björk).
