Crywank

About

Crywank are a three-piece DIY folk band from Manchester, England. They focus mostly on sad songs.

Crywank started in 2009 with Jay Clayton attempting to do some folk-punk influenced acoustic music with no previous experience playing guitar. The first album "James is going to die soon" was inspired by a painful break up. Jay stated that "I wrote these songs out of frustration and sadness and they ended up making me feel a lot better, I hope they have a similar effect on you".

In 2012 Crywank released their second album 'Narcissist On The Verge Of A Nervous Breakdown'. Described as "a collection of paranoid songs mostly about me trying to understand my own sadness along with the concept of sadness as a whole. It was fuelled by self help books and pot."

In late 2012 Dan Watson joined Crywank on percussion, and in early 2013 they released tour demos for their third album 'Tomorrow Is Nearly Yesterday And Everyday Is Stupid' which was released in October 2013.

Since 2013, the band has expanded their discography to a total of 8 albums, including 2016's 'Don't Piss On Me, I'm Already Dead' and what was slated to be their final album, 2020's 'Fist Me 'til Your Hand Comes Out My Mouth'. The band announced their breakup in 2020 and are planning on completing their history together after their final worldwide tour. In 2021 the album 'Just Popping In To Say Hi' was released to raise funds after a house fired. On a twitter post in 2024 it was announced that the breakup would no longer be going headed and that Jules Noel of Guard Petal would be joining as the bands permeant bassist
