| Cut Deeper 30/1/18
deep cuts for you | | 1 |  | Black Mountain
Wilderness Heart
Buried By the Blues
I usually turn to psychedelic music to brighten up my day, but this time around it is rather sorrowful. Surprisingly enough, this sounds much more like a typical Black Mountain song than the rest of this album. And it is also the least joyous and upbeat cut on there. But no fear, fellas, it is not distressing. | | 2 |  | The White Birch
People Now Human Beings
Nick the Sailor
...now, this is distressing. | | 3 |  | Codeine
Barely Real
Hard to Find
A quiet, slow and creeping cut that doesn't explode. Just keep that in mind. It may not sound appealing at first, due to its slow bass play and unemotive vocals in a weird non-melodic mix, but it just somehow stays with you and you have to revisit it and try to figure out what the magic behind it is. | | 4 |  | The Good, The Bad & The Queen
The Good, The Bad & The Queen
A Soldier's Tale
One of Damon Albarn's most Radioheadian songs. Do you really need more? | | 5 |  | Quasi
Featuring "Birds"
You Fucked Yourself
Your old typical middle-of-the-road 90s indie snarkfest with a sweet tangling guitarwork and silly-simple piano play. | | 6 |  | King Creosote
From Scotland With Love
For One Night Only
A perfect example of King Creosote at their high, where everything sounds uplifting and hopeful, even if positioned amidst distress. It's a song that calms through its joyfulness. It's a song that is a beautyof instrumentation and complete sophistication. | | 7 |  | Flying Horseman
Rooms/Ruins
Killer
Here's a spoiler for tomorrow: this is my next review. And more spoilers: I don't talk nearly enough about how much this album reminds me of And Also the Trees. And on no other song is it as apparent as on Killer. | | 8 |  | The Fall
Bend Sinister
Gross Chapel - British Grenadiers
for butcherboy and Mark E.
In light of the Fall's main sociopath's very timely demise I have to add one more entry on the list (foolish I thought this will be a post-punk-less week). This is not their best. This is not their wildest. This is not their brigthest. This is just their quintessential. | |

02.13.18 | This series is dead, by the way. I might do this a couple of times more, but it's not a regularity anymore. |
