  • Description

    Alcopop! (who recently won 'Best Small Label' at the 2013 AIM awards) are delighted to bring you the UK release of - primary singer-songwriter for seminal band The Get Up Kids - Matt Pryor's latest album – Wrist Slitter.

    Already hailed by Rolling Stone, Rock Sound and Noisey - the album includes 12 dynamic tracks as well as appearances from friends Chris Conley (of Saves The Day), Bob Nanna (of Braid), and Steve Soboslai (of Punchline). Pryor further expands on the origin of album title Wrist Slitter, "I was prepared to write a very sad album, a wrist slitter, but this album ended up being the exact opposite of that." The urgency, impassioned delivery and downright luscious pop sensibilities of this album evoke TGUK at their very best.

    Though best known for his work with The Get Up Kids, Pryor has a vast musical catalog including his folk-tinged group The New Amsterdams, children's music project Terrible Twos and indie-rock super group Lasorda – featuring Nate Harold (fun.), Mike Standberg (Kevin Devine & The Goddamn Band), and Dustin Kinsey (The New Amsterdams).
