Sea Stacks - Brutal Concrete/Scottish Wilderness
Sea Stacks - Brutal Concrete/Scottish Wilderness |
When I lived in London I mixed in
a few social groups and every now and again I would spend the evening drinking
with a chap of such wit and intellect that I was drawn to him like a moth to a
flame. I only met him once or twice but I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations
on everything from the theatre to architecture to homemade cocktails from our
younger days. Sea Stacks are a bit like that chap in that I never seek them out
for one-on-one time but every time I encounter their music I feel better for
the experience. This free download, 'Brutal Concrete/Scottish Wilderness', is
in advance of their forthcoming new single and is a bleak but strangely warming
piece of understated orchestral indie. If ATP still existed, these guys would
be a shoe in but at the very least they should be appearing at something in the
Royal Festival Hall curated by Edwyn Collins within the next 18 months.
