Originating from noisy improvisations and chaotic concoctions recorded in a basement in Cork, Ireland. Crying Loser is a raw byproduct of abrasive, frenzied and hypnotic energy, looking to scratch the miserable itch of life at the bottom of the barrel.
A no-wave quartet comprised of Arthur Pawsey (guitar, vocals), Micheál Fitzgerald (bass), Sam Clague (bass clarinet, flute) and Ruairí de Búrca (drums), Crying Loser released their first EP, Oaf Milk in September 2023, with a vinyl release by Swish Swash Records following in 2024. Following two successful tours across France and multiple shows all over Ireland & UK, Crying Loser’s upcoming full length album The Ick, pushes the limits of the groups’s chaotic and feverish compositions.
Flesh Interface is their latest single, accompanied by a nightmarish video directed by Zoe Greenway. Noisy, energetic and left-field, Flesh Interface combines hypnotic rhythms with outbreaks of frenzied madness. With several features on BBC6 Music from Deb Grant, Amy Lamé and Nathan Shepherd, Flesh Interface begins this next chapter for the group, with their debut album dropping in 2026 with Trapped Animal Records’ new imprint, We Go to 11. Aside from signing with Trapped Animal, Crying Loser have recently been signed to Wipe Out Music’s roster by Matt Baty of Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs for publishing & distribution.
