This very Scottish track caught my ear tonight and I had to share it with you all. I had a twitter exchange with a friend this week that reminded me of how much we love finding new music and of how sick to death I am of major label artists who put out album after album the same old thing. That’s not to say that all established musicians lack creativity and courage – not at all, but I just can’t bring myself to hype the latest regurgitation of whatshisname just because some major corporation has put a shit ton of money into it. THIS here product by The Moth and the Mirror, who are are: Stacey Sievwright (The Reindeer Section, Arab Strap), – Vocals; Guitar; Gordon Skene (Frightened Rabbit) – Guitar, Vocals; Louis Abbott (Admiral Fallow, Song of Return) – Guitar/Vocals; Kevin McCarvel Smoke Jaguar) – Bass; Iain Sandilands – Percussion; Peter Murch – Drums), is not only new music by some new people and some seasoned musicians, but it SOUNDS new and exciting, yes? I like its dark moodiness and the way it doesn’t all wrap up happy in the end, like French movies. We americans are always looking for that happy ending, it’s so boring. This track, this is hardly boring. xoxo
