Melbourne’s Margins create music that’s both minimal and cinematic; characterised by a sparse, efficient beauty yet big enough to fill out the barren, dusty landscapes it evokes. At least, that’s what I think of when I listen to their excellent self-titles LP. This song, and several others on said album, contains an unexpected left-turn half-way through that certainly keeps things interesting. If Nick Cave and Warren Ellis get sick of soundtracking Nu-Westerns, John Hillcoat should give these guys a call.
Wow these guys have a great sound. I cant agree with you on the barren landscape thing, its more like a surf sound for mine and feels fresh and crisp a bit like a crisp cold spring morning on the beach. Beautiful stuff
