Carpe Diem, Moonman (1LP Transparent Red Vinyl)

Perth’s finest, Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, continue their onslaught on 2025 with the release of their 7th record. Carpe Diem, Moonman is another weird and wonderful journey through the mind of Jack McEwan, the talisman of the Perth 5-piece. Lead single ‘Weird World Awoke’ is another ferocious blast of inimitable rock and roll, with a lyrical rollercoaster to keep pace with the relentless tempo and guitar slaloms.

McEwan himself had this to say about the new record: “Carpe Diem, Moonman” is an entanglement of chaos, the bi-product of excessive touring, an explosion of doubt, wonder, excitement, dog bites, Greek philosophy, death, weekend benders and a partridge in a pear tree, a mongrel of sorts. There’s so many genres, flavours, cream crackers and fairground amusements packed into Carpe Diem, Moonman. It blasts out the gates, takes you for a spin then leads you off into somewhere beautiful, fun and enthralling. I want people to come back and find something new with each listen.”
