Like the soundtrack to an old-fashioned gothic western (is there such a thing?), Blanche songs are creepy, twangy, and very, very pretty. With sad banjo and moody vocals, these slow, ghostly country songs let the listener drift back to the days of pre-industrial America. You know, the good old days, before the electric light bulb illuminated the sneaking shape of the sly killer and cast his shadow across the barn door for the hapless victim to see.
I do not like this kind of music.
I think this is brilliant.
Wow, Another Lost Summer is a great song. Good post.
This is one of my favorite bands of the moment…
one of my favorite bands. even though i have just heard these two songs. can’t find their record anywhere in Norway..
No mention of the late great Goober and the Peas in the review? For shame!
