Soft-spoken vocals, often melancholy and lots of good acoustic guitar. Generally medium paced and rather spooky. The best songs are 1 and 2, 3-5 are also good and 6 isn’t that good. Just play in the order they’re recorded 1. Guitar/vocal and a simple, relentless beat. Haunting and pretty. A bit of creepy violin and keyboards thrown in. 2. Nice acoustic guitar work, somewhat sparse vocals, howling and spooky strings. 3. Acoustic guitar and vocals with a bit of a story, switches to distorted, echoing guitar and psychedelic keyboard reminiscent of the 60’s. 4. Simple guitar rhythm with vocals first half. Second half a progressively intricate piece of guitar work. 5. Is this about a serial killer? Dark humor or genuinely scary, I’m not sure. 6. Loud persistent drone with light guitar work. Personally, I’d pass on this one. The id | ||
