Hi,

Long time UKDK fan and my first post on here.

Did anybody else see the article in last Saturdays Guide magazine that comes with The Guardian newspaper? It's on page 4 if you've got it.
The track Werewolf is spoken about in a really glowing way by Jeremy Dyson (League of Gentlemen) in an article about what they call 'scun' - scary and fun.
I'll scan the article and email it if you want to see it.

Looking forward to Rebellion.

AdeB

UK Decay in The Guardian

Hi Adeb

Welcome to UK Decay Communities!

Thanks for letting us know, we had seen the article on 'scun' on the
Gaurdian website but did not realise it was also in the Guide magazine!

Its not the first time the track 'Werewolf' has attracted the attention of
the national press. Back in 2005 the 'Independent on Sunday' published an
article written by Suzi Feay on the topic of Ghost stories and scary sounds.

Werewolf took the honour of 'Scariest Sound ever' in the writers opinion.
(we have a scan of the article here)

It would be great if you could scan the recent Gaurdian article Ade,
you can send it to werewolf (A) ukdecay.co.uk
We would really appreciate it!

Nice one Adeb, hope you enjoy your stay here!

W.W. for UK Decay Communities

According to Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson (The League of Gentlemen)
UK Decay's 'Werewolf' is 'Scun'
The Guardian Guide Magazine article on Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson's 'Scun'
The Guardian Guide Magazine article on Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson's 'Scun'

A couple of texts and a shout on the forum alerted the staff in a rather
bleak Aldwyck Towers last week to the fact that there was mention in
the Guardian Guide magazine of the UK Decay's horror epic, Werewolf.
On further investigation and thanks everybody by the way, for the shout,
we were able to ascertain that Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson from
'The League of Gentlemen' were talking about their new concept of 'Scun'.

This is a play on words 'scary, but fun' = 'Scun'!

On being asked to explain the new concept Andy told his experience of
hearing the track 'Werewolf' for the first time when Jeremy insisted on
playing it to him.

Apparently it brought him to tears, he was so scared. UK Decay had
found a werewolf, provoked it and then recorded it........Urban myth in
the making? If only he knew the half of it!

Could there be any truth to the rumour the boys had fed the captured
werewolf a crate of cheap baked beans before the recording session?

Anyway 'Ghost Stories' looks like a lot of fun for those 'brave enough'
to check it out
Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson bring their stage show Ghost Stories
to the London's West End
