Product Description
Title: bÚkl – Blue Ghost in the Memory-Machine Format: Limited splatter coloured vinyl Label: Music Zone Records
Release date: March 7th 2025
Music Zone presents ‘Blue Ghost in the Memory-Machine’, the debut album from Cork artist, bÚkl (Shane Healy).
Produced and recorded in 2024 by Shane at his home-studio, the music shifts from psychedelic prog tinged tracks to hard rock and alternative rock to minimal acoustic ballads with folk elements and songs with quirky electronic drum machine foundations.
The lyrics range from irreverent and tongue-in-cheek to heartfelt and dark, with a sprinkling of Gaeilge in the mix also.
It is a concept album of sorts where the songs, inspired by, but also hindered by over a decade of mental health battles, have finally found their way into the light. This journey has been encapsulated in the cover artwork by Cork visual artist, Jim McCarthy.
This is the limited green, purple and light blue splatter Vinyl version.
