The 21st anniversary edition of Mansun’s debut Attack of the Grey Lantern is re-mastered by Jon Astley. This groundbreaking 1997 album blends cinematic art rock with soaring melodies, featuring the timeless anthem "Wide Open Space." A UK No. 1 hit, it stands out amid Britpop for its cerebral, prog-inspired style. Presented as a tongue-in-cheek concept album, it follows Paul Draper’s alter ego, The Grey Lantern, as he confronts the dark secrets of a small English village through lavish, witty pop songs.
