About this item

Pop Levi has celebrity supporters as diverse as Jarvis Cocker, Lauren Laverne, Noel Gallagher, Tame Impala and Kasabian, who he was asked to support at Somerset House in London.

Named by NME as “a true cult hero”, and a “genuine maverick” by Q.

Pop Levi has released two albums through Ninja Tune with Super Numeri, played bass with Ladytron and released solo albums through Counter records. Levi released his debut solo album on Counter Records, ‘The Return To Form Black Magick Party’, which he toured all over the world. Levi is also a talented director and has shot videos for a Vans x Stussy collaboration.

Recorded in three purpose-built private home studios (in Norway, Greece and Los Angeles), ‘Medicine’ rubs Pop’s obsession with Prince up against his love of Bolan, throws in a little Paul McCartney, some early Stooges, a chunk of Lindsey Buckingham and even a dash of Peter Gabriel, for a record which channels bubblegum pop through Satanic ritual and classic rock for one of the oddest, funniest, most compellingly unique records you’re likely to hear in 2012.

“Trippy, sexy, wickedly produced, deeply psychedelic glam rock” - Mixmag

“Beguiling and bizarre in equal measure… there is depth beyond the Willy Wonka weirdness” - The Guardian
