Lewis Furey’s The Sky Is Falling is a cult late seventies art rock and chanson influenced album blending poetic songwriting, dramatic arrangements and European cinematic atmosphere. Released in 1979, the record reflects Furey’s background in theatre and film, delivering an introspective and emotionally charged listening experience that sits between art rock, French chanson and progressive pop.

This UK RCA Saravah pressing features the original minimalist sleeve artwork and the full studio album as intended. Furey’s songwriting is literate and expressive, with richly layered compositions and a strong narrative tone throughout, making this a sought after title among collectors of intelligent seventies singer songwriter and art rock records.

A distinctive and underrated album that appeals to fans of Serge Gainsbourg, Scott Walker, Brian Eno era art pop and cinematic European influenced songwriting.
