It's been a while since we last had a playlist round these parts...
Things start off deceptively calm with the spectral folk of Charalambides, but those dark undercurrents start to cohere with Current 93 and become full-on sinister by the time we reach the Residents. Passing the scenic expanses of Roxy Muisc’s first and David Bowie’s last album, we hit the spiky peaks of mclusky, Fucked Up and the Ex. Before finishing with an uproarious and uplifting burst of Stiff Little Fingers. The title and image come from a Basquiat painting.
John Cale: Over Her Head
Charalambides: Dormant Love
Current 93: A Thousand Witches
The Residents: The Scarecrow
Pixies: Hey
The Smiths: These Things Take Time
Aaron Neville: Hercules
David Bowie: 'Tis A Pity She Was A Whore
Roxy Music: If There Is Something
Robyn Hitchcock: If You Knew Time
mclusky: You Should Be Ashamed, Seamus
Fucked Up: Det
The Ex: Maybe I Was The Pilot
Stiff Little Fingers: Silver Lining
”I have satellite maps for near destinations
”So why take a risk when you can take a vacation?”
