The Cribs announce album anniversary tour

The Cribs will be celebrating 10 years since Men’s Needs, Women’s Needs, Whatever in May.

Ten years since the release of Men’s Needs, Women’s Needs, Whatever, The Cribs will be taking the album on the road across the UK this May.

The tour will see the album being release on vinyl for the first time in ten years, having celebrated critical success upon release.

“When writing an album, you (not so) secretly hope that 10 years down the line people will still care about it, still listen to it and get something out of it whatever that may be,” the band announced. “And so, ultimately we just feel really lucky and honoured to be in a position where this ‘conundrum’ of looking back vs moving forward is even a consideration.

“In short, this isn’t The Cribs indulging ourselves and reliving the past – it’s more just a big THANK YOU to all of you that have been with us throughout the years, and a ‘welcome aboard’ to those who missed it the first time around.”
