Comment: the man behind Wings Of An Angel is a phenomenon. Maybe he is not man at all, no I am not inclined to say instead of a man there is an angel, maybe it is a hidden collective behind it. Why I supposed to think in that way? Because he has released more than 140 releases in recent years. It must be a prodigious exertion to reach it. Only very few chosen are able to do it. If to think of it this can be compared with the doings of the Almighty one. All what he said and did all would get realised immediately. All what Wings Of An Angel has thought all would have surfaced after a while. The recent one consists of a couple of tracks which are quite disparate by their format, composition and tonality. Danger Is An Imminent Reaction used to base on a spherical droning. I was running in a colourful, autumnal forest while I was listening to it for the first time. It is a track which suggests as if you are the only person in the world. There is no place for other persons. You have no need for other people at all because your own existence is tightly related to the surrounding nature which is your mother, father, lover, whatever. In other words, it is the rebuff of civilisation which is the source of decay and depression. The track clocks in at a 16 minute. The following track It's Too Hard To Teach A Daft Sun-Assaulter How To Make Raspberries Grow In The Dirt is as long as a 67 minute being based on piano chord shuffles and surrounded by an airy ambience. Its emotion and mood are more veiled and ambiguous and because of that it is problematic to relate to it on emotionally. However, I suppose I am barking under a false tree and instead of searching for overwhelming emotions (due to the opening composition) you have to set out to follow rigidly the format and the pattern of the composition. That's it. In a nutshell, listen to it for to stand under the shadow of the wings of an angel.

  • Indie folk

Comment: since the end of the 00s I have had two great lo-fi and DIY acts from the very underground of the United Kingdom, more profoundly, The Hirundu, and Clinker. Since 2014 or 2015 I can consider The Bordellos as a third act in the list. Why I like the mentioned acts? It might be because of their cynicism in lyrics and in their music which in turn harks back to my personal experiences while listening to an early MES and The Fall, especially Perverted By Language (1983). Of course, I like the music of the recent ones because these influences cannot be heard as a copy paste version but one can hear unexpected dodges and tradition ruined appearances in music. The Bordellos is not a unit who somehow likes to be aesthetically repressed. They have been doing what they like to do. They have released a bunch of EPs and some albums so far. This 4-notch one is based on quiet and even buried incantations based on primitive chords and visions. Let's call it lo-fi jangle pop, primitive Americana, outsider folk music, tea cup sadcore. I have nothing left to do as they sing. Like The Fall has always loved rockabilly as an American influence The Bordellos has added Americana as an American influence to the latest releases. I have no regret while spending time with it though I would prefer the combo's previous ones because at times it is way too buried. But I understood their musical path to move on from one point to the next one. That's the logic, that's the dynamics.
