There was an innocence that informed the first album, 'Corrugations'. The songs were built on the optimism of learning to play and perform. 'Angels' comes from a much darker place with more layers of instrumentation and riven with a fury at a world where everything has been reduced to the consistency of a tepid viscous gloop, where politics is a fashion, where music is mediocrity, and where celebrity has replaced substance. In a world of shopping malls and rabib consumerism, no one seems to pause and wonder who profits from all the crap that we're being sold, or who owns the supermarkets where a world without meaning is on display. 'Angels' is a response to this - the idea that everything is the same and there is no difference between life and death. 'Angels' is 11 tracks that came out of necessity. Sounds Like: The musicians I admire have all set themselves against the way things are: Tom Waits, JJ Cale, and John Martyn; Skip James, Marvin Gaye, and James Brown; Gillian Welch, Cat Power, and Mary Gauthier; Rainer Ptacek, Tinariwen, and Stevie Ray Vaughan; Neil Young, Calexico, and Iron & Wine Type of Label: None |
