Moloko Statues

Moloko were an Anglo-Irish electronica/trip-hop duo from Sheffield, England consisting of Róisín Murphy from Arklow, Ireland and Mark Brydon, from Sunderland, England. Statues is their fourth and final studio album, released on 3 March 2003 by Echo Records.

Moloko‘s final album, Statues, will be issued as a limited 2LP coloured vinyl pressing in November. The 2003 album features the top 20 singles singles ‘Familiar Feeling’ and ‘Forever More’ and is the final 2LP coloured vinyl reissue from Music On Vinyl.

Limited edition with bonus live disc entitled 'Value Pack'. Amazon review by Muraiki: Moloko, the "post-trip hop" turned dancepop duo from Sheffield, England has an impressive musical catalogue. From the experimental electronica of Do You Like My Tight Sweater, to the funky stylings of I Am Not A Doctor, to the stylistically-confused but vocally expressive Things To Make And Do, and the lyrically mature and lushly orchestrated Statues, Róisín Murphy (vocals) and Mark Brydon (production) have shown that they know how to entertain. Catalogue, a compilation album that spans 1995 to 2003 and pulls from band's entire output, is a distillation of the former couple's talent.

Moloko have been often imitated during their career but no band had quite the self belief as this Sunderland/Wicklow duo. The unique star quality of Roisin Murphy and melodic prowess and musical genius of Mark Brydon have long overshadowed their counterparts that have come and gone. Moloko remain one of the most often quoted and most influential bands of the last 10 years. Catalogue brings together all the chart hits and the finest collection of tracks from the 4 studio albums.
