Cloudboy - Pet (1996)
Pet brings the Cloudboy aesthetic clearly into focus. Its strident musical setting, with Craig Monk's string arrangement rolling things along, grows into a more sinister mood by chorus time, all the while adding more threat to the sensation that Demarnia Lloyd's little girl lost vocal will see things end in a nightmare. It doesn't of course, but maybe that's just one of those smart musical tricks, pitting the big mean boy-band sound against the woman's voice and having her come out on top.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
