Oliver Sim - Hideous Bastard

***Initial orders receive a bonus 7" single and film strip. While stocks last and no purchase necessary ***

The debut solo album from Oliver Sim - vocalist and bassist of The xx, Hideous Bastard is a deeply self-confessional journey of fear and shame inspired by the queer horror films he loves. Oliver is joined by Jamie xx, who produces Hideous Bastard with an elegant touch, and Jimmy Somerville (Bronski Beat/Communards), an angel, who takes us to the heavens. Full of surreal pop sounds that escape into the ether and break free, Hideous Bastard is a bold and ambitious debut that sees Oliver explore his voice and his capacity to evoke emotion, melding masculinity and tenderness, beauty with a baritone.

Deluxe edition with Crystal Year vinyl, bespoke die cut gatefold sleeve and exclusive fold out poster.
