GUM/Ambrose Kenny-Smith

Ill Times - Deluxe Edition Injection Molded PET Vinyl

£27.99

Released: 2nd October 2026. GUM/Ambrose Kenny-Smith - made of Jay Watson (Gum, Pond, Tame Impala) and Ambrose Kenny-Smith (King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, The Murlocs) - release the deluxe edition of 2024's, 'Ill Times', an album born out of a friendship that began over a decade ago. The album is easily as much fun as the duo had making it, and that was a truly ridiculous amount of fun. For six albums now, you've heard Jay Watson's brain, unfiltered, as GUM. Now you can hear what that brain sounds like when it's refracted through Ambrose Kenny-Smith's bluesy, soulful lens. And it's a very wonderful sound indeed. The deluxe edition comes with an additional 4 bonus tracks. 180g 12' injection-molded opaque black PET record. 12' jacket comes with printed inner-sleeve, all housed in a 100% recycled plastic over bag. *Injection Molded PET EcoSonic Vinyl is a sustainable, high-fidelity audio format engineered as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional PVC vinyl records.
