Melancholy, pretty, Americana wrist-cutting pop. Spain was one of the more obscure cogs in the slowcore movement in the nineties, but then they broke up and the songwriter Josh Haden (son of jazz legend Charlie Haden) went on to a solo career. The band reconvened last year and recorded a couple of new songs. Both songs are worth your time. For fans of Tindersticks, American Music Club, Dakota Suite. No FCCs.

1. Gentle acoustic strums, simplistic guitar riff, Hammond organ, chorus is very accessible, picks up for outro. Good pop song. (4:19)
2. A little slower, vocal line is doubled on guitar, very rootsy, kind of gospelly. (6:14)
