Just A Silhouette – Ex Lovers
What an absolute wonder of a song! It’s the sort of track that you have to listen to over and over because it just makes you feel so damn happy to hear that little guitar line. And don’t even get me started on the interlude – which feels as unhurried and carefree as anything I’ve heard in years.
This is every song from Sarah Records, filtered through the memories of every 80s band that should’ve made it big but no one ever knew about. Hearing something like this just reminds you of how great it is to be alive.
Ex Lovers have a couple singles on Rough Trade (and “Photobooth” is every bit as good as “Just a Silhouette), but I want an LP!
