Kevin P. Gilday & The Glasgow Cross return with their highly-anticipated fourth album, Me or the Devil. Featuring songs dismantling social and personal ills, from gambling addiction to consumer culture, the new album acts as a combustible companion piece to 2024’s groundbreaking How I Won the Culture War (★★★★ The Scotsman). Showcasing lengthier and more intricate compositions, it marks another evolution in the ever-shifting sound of this singular band.
Available Friday 2nd October 2026 via Iffy Folk Records, Me or the Devil is a gloriously unique album, from the electronica of Anxiety Music to the 24-hour news cycle that floods the title track. Lead single Accumulator (released on 25th September) sets the tone for a collection that insists on experimenting, its dark jangle setting the backdrop for a tale of gambling addiction and a critique on the ubiquity of betting advertising in our society.
'A unique sonic palette, merging contemporary spoken word and post-punk/electro instrumental arrangements, bringing to the surface each artist's individual musicality.'

The List
'Pure Concrete is Glasgow in a nutshell; diverse, boozy, unshrinking, occasionally crude, and often hilarious.'
