This limited edition red vinyl double LP features McCarthy’s debut I Am A Wallet alongside 13 bonus tracks from their first four singles. A cult indie pop classic praised by Nicky Wire of Manic Street Preachers, the album blends jangly Byrds-like guitars with fiercely political lyrics. Originally released after standout early singles like “Red Sleeping Beauty” and “Frans Hals,” it showcases Malcolm Eden’s sharp critiques of capitalism, religion, and authority—all wrapped in catchy, melodic pop. The set also highlights McCarthy's legacy as the origin point of Stereolab’s Tim Gane and Lætitia Sadier.
