Mansuns debut, the iconic 90s #1 album Attack of the Grey Lantern, is a much-loved and experimental piece of music at the heart of fervent cult following for the British group. Their dedicated fanbase started a petition that called for frontman Paul Draper to release his debut solo album Spooky Action in 2017 and cast thousands of votes in an online poll to choose AOTGL as the album for Draper to play in full on tour in February / March 2018.
Paul Drapers 14-date Spring 18 tour followed Spooky Action entering at #19 in the UK album charts, a US tour with label mate Steven Wilson, and helped to celebrate the 21st anniversary of one of the most favoured British albums from the late Britpop era Attack of the Grey Lantern. The album has also since been remastered and released in deluxe format by Kscope, re-entering the UK album charts at #28 in June 2018. This rapid success for the ex-Mansun songwriter has seen him perform the main stage at the UKs esteemed Festival No. 6 and Kscopes 10th anniversary event at the Union Chapel in London alongside Anathema, Gleb Kolyadin and Nosound.
