Louise Brennan – The Culture of Resistance
Louis Brennan - The Culture of Resistance |
Release Date: Out Now
Dublin’s Louis Brennan, currently
hanging out in London town, is the latest emerging artist to have penned a song
about the current state of the world and, particularly, the nightmarish
quagmire that is British politics at the moment. Terrorist nutjobs aside, there’s
a political battle going on at the moment and Brennan sums it up beautifully ‘The
Culture of Resistance’ in his equally beautiful baritone country drawl. Over a
soft, gentle acoustic ripple, Brennan sings slowly and purposefully “I want to
believe, to be swept along when the feeling is strong but I just pretend to
care, hungover in my underwear”. This is Johnny Cash singing a Divine Comedy
song as the bombs fall and all that’s left is a village in the far reaches of
Scotland and the Scotch won’t last much longer. There is something glorious and
tragic about this song which is matched by the montage video which shows
Western consumerism in direct contrast with the nothingness felt elsewhere in
this messed up world. Humbling.
