Dead Letter Chorus – ‘Laces Bound’
Blah, I hate colds. They suck. But this isn’t about what ailment I’m suffering at the moment, it’s about Sydney band Dead Letter Chorus (no, not Dead Letter Circus, or Dead Letter Opener). Don’t ask me why everyone’s fascinated with undelivered mail…
To be honest I don’t know too much about these guys. From their various bios and press releases, it doesn’t look like they’ve been around too long. There’s six of them, and the vocals are swapped between Cameron Potts and Gabrielle Huber. Judging by the title of their brand new EP Listen Carefully (We Shall Say This Only Once), they’re ‘Allo ‘Allo fans. The EP is getting a national release on July 7 (yep, 07/07/07).
The band were gracious enough tho send through an MP3 of a song from their forthcoming EP. The song, entitled ‘Laces Bound’, is just the sonic warmth I needed to get through this damn cold. The vocals are courtesy of Gabrielle on this one, and her voice reminds me of someone, though I can’t remember for the life of me who. Oh well, it ain’t important. What’s important is that this is a really great indie/foilk tune, and hopefully it’ll be as comforting to you as it is to me.
