Am off to foreign lands for a couple of days. Hope folks like this while I'm gone....
One of my fave bands sadly no longer making records. Deceptively simple and played so gracefully.
This song, weirdly, makes me imagine the picket lines during the Miners' Strikes in East Durham... Works even better if you imagine 'beat' being used as the irregular past participle verb form, as is common in Yackerese!
I know what you're thinking: "Another Walkmen song?" These songs are just far too lovely.
