Publicity Department (Album Launch)

Publicity Department is the solo project of Sean Brook, singer and primary songwriter from London's alt-rock triers Brunch (“the lost middle ground of Los Campesinos! and Fugazi I didn’t know I’d always wanted”– For The Rabbits). Taking influence from his songwriting heroes David Gedge, Brian Wilson, John Cale and John Shuttleworth; Publicity Department was intended as an outlet for Brook's pop sensibilities whilst retaining the fuzzed-out feel of 90s alt-rock.

The third Publicity Department album, 'Old Master', (released via York’s prolific Safe Suburban Home Records) sees the project return to the set up of the first record, with Sean Brook handling all the writing, performing and mixing duties. It is consequently a move back into more lo-fi, homespun territory, and features a collection of songs variously from the perspective of old men raging at a world they have all but destroyed but no longer understand, and the young people trying to make sense of what’s left.
