Description
Simon Armitage's latest collection brings together lyrics from various musical projects and ventures. The poems were written for LYR, the DIY indie band The Scaremongers, film and theatre productions such as 'Songbirds' and 'Feltham Sings', and other miscellaneous pursuits. The book includes an introduction that charts these diverse projects and explores the origins of ritualised language, as well as an outro offering contextualising notes and anecdotal insights. This collection showcases Armitage's range and his unique ear for the music of language, presented here in a new and engaging form. A companion to his work with Land Yacht Regatta, 'Never Good with Horses Assembled Lyrics' offers a fresh perspective on the poet's use of song lyric and poetry.
