{"product_id":"pope-adrian-37th-psychristiatric","title":"Pope Adrian 37th Psychristiatric","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePope Adrian 37th Psychristiatric\u003c\/i\u003e is the third LP by Rudimentary Peni. \nRecorded in 1992 but not released until 1995, it was the first music the\n band recorded after their already leftfield \u003ci\u003eCacophony\u003c\/i\u003e album. It is an \nunderrated and difficult masterpiece of truly outsider music. Full of \nharrowing and morbid songs based on repetition, repetition and \nrepetition, pushing the listener into a trance like mood. Pope Adrian \n37th Psychristiatric shows the most experimental side of Rudimentary Peni testing the punk song concept, turning it into a mantra chant at \ntimes while sounding like only Rudimentary Peni could. The album opens \nwith lead track ‘Pogo Pope’, which sets the tone, with Blinko repeatedly\n singing ‘Pogo Pope’ ad nauseam, and the whole of the album has a \ncontinual loop of the phrase 'Popus Adrianus’ running through its \nentirety. At the time Nick Blinko was experiencing severe delusions and \nbelieved that he was Pope Adrian the 37th and was detained in a \npsychiatric hospital under Section 3 of the 1983 Mental Health Act. The \nalbum is unhinged and challenging but 100% pure and idiosyncratic.\n\nThis official reissue comes on a single sleeve with printed inner and 16\n page booklet with Nick Blinko artwork and has been remastered from the \noriginal tapes by Arthur Rizk.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sealed Records","offers":[{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":50531831251275,"sku":"2220471","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50531833872715,"sku":"2220472","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/a4220853357_16_571469c2_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1728112623","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/pope-adrian-37th-psychristiatric","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
