Just a trio of tracks this time, I blame the relentless rain...makes
me particularly picky. Grrrrrrr. First up...awwww bless ‘em it’s CocoRosie with
another missive from their twisted fairytale world entitled We Are On Fire. Produced
by TV On The Radio’s Dave Sitek it’s, to borrow the old reviewers’ cliché, ‘hauntingly
beautiful’.
Gil Scott Heron cover anyone? Don’t mind if I do. Step
forward Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr. (repeat to fade), with an appropriately impassioned (and rockier) take on one of St Gil’s lesser known classics.
Last up yet another great track from a Brooklyn band, this
time it’s TEEN’s Better. Tribal drums? Check. Slightly drugged up female
vocalist? Check? Vintage synths? Check. Handclaps? Check. Play it loud and earn
yourself instant hipster points in your office/cell/squat/tower block.
