News: The iconic Lloyd Cole announces Australian tour to support new album ‘On Pain’ and regale us with some old favourites.

Arun Kendall November 24, 2023

This time it is ‘Same Old Day’ – another dappling ray of aural sunshine with a slightly wonky ramble and Justin Wilding Stokes’s sardonic and wry delivery. There is detectable a slight fairground, carnival lilt, redolent perhaps …
