Here it is: the cover reveal for the new Cursed Murphy Versus the Resistance album Republic of the Weird. Painting by our own Tamara Gangnus. Cover design by our Rebecca Gangnus.
We all fell in love with this image when it cropped up in Tamara’s portfolio. Here’s what she has to say about its origins:
“This particular image developed while reading about a real life experiment that took place in the 90’s in Arizona which focused on creating a sustainable closed-system biosphere. Simultaneously in the real world we were living in a world of lockdowns and climate crisis. With this image I was trying to capture the optimism and sense of adventure into the unknown as well as the disastrous decisions that have brought us to this point.”
The album will be released on CD and in digital form on Friday November 4. We play a special launch show at The Crown Live, Wexford, on Saturday November 5, with guest DJ Den Lawlor. Can’t wait to see you there. Like and share at will.
