Hello reader, welcome to the post about the song called ‘Control’ by the artist called Leftenent. You have arrived here to read some Good Thoughts about this song and I’ve come here to write those Good Thoughts so let’s get mutual on this one shall we? Leftenent is the just-recently adopted mantle worn by Sydney’s Antonia Guaci. She’s getting a bit mantle greedy however since last week she filled out the requisite paperwork and adopted yet ANOTHER mantle. That one was called GAUCI but more on that in a second. Probably worth mentioning here Antonia that mantles aren’t just toys you get given at Christmas and then tire of before giving away in April. If you decide to adopt a mantle then you need to Treat It Right. Back to this Leftenent project though, which is immensely personal on the lyrical end with some deeply vulnerable pondering words that don’t feel like they could be anything other than the honest reaction to a real life hurt. It’s beautifully delivered, especially at the end of the track when the vocal production on ‘Your love is control’ thickens it up so wonderfully. If you know Antonia however, the quality of the recording shouldn’t be any surprise. She’s a much respected studio hand with some lucrative credits to her account. She’s even been working with our favourite boy Anatole on his debut album so you know she’s got all the cosigns for you to commit to this fully.

Now down here, this is the other project I was threatening you with. This is one has double the Gauci with not just Antonia but sibling David in the band alongside excellent Sydney musician Felix Lush. Totally different vibe, equally incredible record.




Have your say:

    I especially like the Gauci track. It reminds me of Austra.
