Common Kings get together with Stephen Marley with a reggae drop about doing what it takes to feed your family.

A slinky flow about materialism and that sense of needing people, and things, to belong to you.

An airy vocal mix of subtle harmony, a fat punchy sound from the bass, and some lovestruck lyricism paint an introspective scene.

Pretty much all bass line and melody, this catchy single strikes a balance between a riff-y roots-elegance and a touch of modern throwaway-cool.

Si Clancy creates a conversation with himself, to perhaps exorcise a memory from his heart, or just to celebrate the absurdity of love itself.

There is this feeling that the music here is just a bit raw, very human, and unadorned; its not exactly alt-folk, its not exactly anything, its Kurt Vile.

A folk-inspired acoustic guitar along with a classic roots-band sound and some creative harmonies make this a bittersweet and lulling aural retrospective.
