Bang! Records present What Would I Know?, the posthumous album from Brian Hooper. The release of this album is bittersweet; on one hand it is a happy and proud moment, while on the other, it feels deeply sad that this is the posthumous album of much-admired artist Brian Hooper. Entering into the album, can one imagine a new album from Brian Henry Hooper (The Beasts of Bourbon, Kim Salmon and the Surrealists, Rowland S. Howard) with Gareth Liddiard of The Drones? What does it sound like? Picture Syd Barrett lost in Australia and you've got it! This is a truly personal and magical album, full of identity and openly exposing the genius of Brian Hooper. Features liner texts courtesy of Kim Salmon.
