 ... area in 1953, or rather about any kind of unexpected disaster 'brace yourself for storms and summer drought'. The song starts slow, quiet and deliberate 'H5N1, killed a wild swan. It was a kind of omen, of everything to come', but the song builds until the guitars at the end ring out in a way not unlike my old favourites, Sonic Youth. Another classic example is 'The Great Skua' which is an instrumental named after a sea bird. The song rolls and soars so that you can hear the ocean crashing and picture the great bird ...more
