New York, NY. (Top40 Charts/ Roadrunner Records) - Biffy Clyro's Simon Neil returns with his eclectic side project, Marmaduke Duke. Marmaduke Duke is described by The Atmosphere (aka Simon Neil of Biffy Clyro) and The Dragon (aka JP Reid of Sucioperro) as a wandering soul, a personification of man's most primitive and often under-explored impulses. His debut album 'The Magnificent Duke', saw The Duke chart his slow descent into psychosis as represented by three differing musical suites- larynx-shredding rock, head-mashing ambient and heart-melting acoustic. For Duke Pandemonium, we see a change: The Duke is back and is ready to party. This is a soundtrack to hedonism, decadence, deviance and dancing and 'Kid Gloves' is its audacious and deceptively restrained illustration of the hedonistic partying to follow. GO HERE to check out the video for the first single "Kid Gloves."
