Saul Adamczewski, co-founder of Fat White Family and frontman of Insecure Men, suffered a severe personal breakdown in 2024 and spent months in a closet in Tulse Hill suffering from severe psychosis and opioid addiction. After calling his mother and going through rehab, he began to rebuild his life and reconnected with his family and bandmates. This recovery led to "A Man For All Seasons", Insecure Men's second album and a creative rebirth.
Recorded in the spring of 2025 at Ray Davis' Konk Studios in Hornsey, North London, with producer Raf Rundell, the album reflects Adamczewski's turn to collaboration, with a band line-up that includes Marley Mackay, Victor Jakeman, Alex White of Fat White Family and Steely Dan Monte. Thematically, the album explores heartbreak, mental illness and addiction, combining melancholic country influences with lush, narcotic lounge-pop textures. Tracks like "Time Is A Healer" convey raw emotion, while songs like "Alien" and "Cleaning Bricks" bring out the album's more junk-pop-heavy instincts.
Rooted in Adamczewski's country music-influenced childhood, the album carries the haunted, submerged sonic identity familiar from Insecure Men's first release, but feels more collaborative and mature. His lyrics are both confessional and escapist, offering solace and catharsis. Beyond this release, Adamczewski plans a country album recorded in Memphis, a dub project, and continues his exploration of folk and experimental forms, always searching for truth and healing through music.
From near collapse to creative revival, Adamczewski's journey is both cautionary and redemptive - a journey that reaffirms his role as one of the UK's most unique and enduring musical voices.
