Cull – World Inside Your Head ( + more)

How about old mate wailing away on that guitar around 2.30. It’s not 80s wanky though, just enough to warrant a steady bounce of the head and the raised eyebrows of any colleagues who happen to stride by my cubicle. Jokes, I have my own office. How many times must I remind you that I’m a bigwig now and I demand you’re respect. A good way to earn that might be to use the correct form of ‘your’ but failing that I’ll just keep plying you with jams and hope for results. Hopefully you’ve already listened through canker up above though if you’re a fast reader it may still be playing and you’ll realise that I was violently reductive in pointing out the merits of a few guitar licks with so much else going on. Even the way vocals switch from left to ride at the twenty second mark or the excellent quavering vocal that run the course of the track – the both need notice.

Now though, let some of the new tune into your ear holes and you’ll thank me. This one’s called ‘World Inside Your Head’ and it’s a slower, woozier thing that’s actually a bit of an earworm. I’ve been singing that damn chorus phrase all day. It lives in the same world inside your head as Porcelain Raft or Tropical Strength, a world of meticulous production choices applied to the sound of a full band which, if reports are true, is made up of a pretty talented set of music types. Also, how about that descending bassline? Legitimate question waiting for answer here, how about it?

And here’s one more for the road, the flipside to ‘Canker’, this one is ‘If It Works’ and in answer to what clearly isn’t a question, “yep, it sure does”. Excellent.
