Release Date: 31st January 2017
Cornish quartet Haunt The Woods
has been on my radar for quite some time now but I’ve never managed to make the
time to hear their music, which is a huge shame. ‘Beautiful Catastrophe’ is the
lead track on a forthcoming EP and it is, well, beautiful without a hint of
catastrophe. The soft, country-esque guitars build until the song establishes a
steady rhythm and by the 3 minute mark we’re in a full blown indie romp that
the likes of Mumford & Sons or Brother & Bones would be proud to add
their blood, sweat and tears to. But there’s something more here, something on
another level that makes this stand out like a shining beacon of hope. If you
strip the urban vibe out of Elbows music and put Jeff Buckley on vocals then
you’re getting close but that wouldn’t quite cover the tightness and the
fraternity that you can hear coursing through each chord, each beat and each
powerfully delivered vocal line. Simply superb.
