BEING – Over
BEING - Over |
Release Date: Out Now
West Sussex duo BEING are perfect
for a certain time on a certain day which is particularly niche. Their debut
release, ‘Over’, is downtempo durge folk with an ambient side that brings to
mind certain obscure but much loved (by me) acts like Contact Mo and the Slow
Life. The throbbing guitar strings and morose vocals are perfect for the kind
of grey day that only the UK can serve up but then that could be true of Nick
Cave or the Tindersticks. No, the particular day that this music is perfect for
is some time between Christmas and New Year when you’re a teenager or perhaps
you’re living away from home and your significant other has just dumped you.
Sure, things are bleak and the vocals capture that perfectly but there is a new
year, a new hope and a new you just around the corner and the subtle power in
the rumbling bass strings force that home sublimely. These two gents create
magic with just a bass and a voice, bleak magic but magic nonetheless.
