05/19 - With An Arm Across The Torso

This is a list for endings and deaths.

Scott Walker - Cossacks Are

So, Scott Walker is dead. And that fucking sucks. The man had more masterpieces in him. The man was a masterpiece.

Grinderman - Evil (Silver Alert remix ft. Matt Berninger)

The world is a cluttered room, with walls and floor bending and crying from the weight. You can feel it all caving in, can't you?

Little Simz - Boss

Stop. Stop. Stop. Stand in awe. Punch a hole. Take the lead. Charge into the cataclysm. Little Simz is boss.

Róisín Murphy - Overpowered

Super-classic. Can't believe I've never had it on a list before. Well, now that's over. Alien feelings we have to accept.

Pentangle - House Carpenter

I've listened to this so many times in the past couple of weeks so that it's starting to sound otherworldly. That, or it was always otherworldly, what with its sitar- and tabla-seasoned Scottish folk, trailing the way from homely comfort to catastrophe. Despite its dire warning, I'm leaving tomorrow on a train, and I'll even get on a ferry down the line. Here's to a month in the Finnish forests, or, if my fate should be that of the besung fickle lady, an eternity in hell!
