Released September 3rd 2013
I'm back and ready to massage your ears with sweet and sexy tones of music for your filthy pleasure you naughty reader types you. Today's sounds come from Leicestershire indie rock trio Young Knives with Something Awful.
Right from the beginning you can tell this track is not your run of the mill indie tune, the tone is bleak and dreary, crashing drums and haunting vocals set an almost dystopian feel to it; but something changes at the one minute mark, the song gets a burst of life and seems upbeat even if the lyrics keep up the slightly depressing tone. These aren't faults I'm making, I happen to enjoy this tone with music and the mental pictures it creates.
With an effective arrangement of varying peaks and drops the song plays like it would feel at home on a game like Fallout, listening to the lyrics of a person changing to something they see as terrible you get a feel of a journey or the plot of a film. Fantastic work from a band I'll be paying a lot more attention to from now on.
