Master musicians of Jajouka
Gnawa chanting and Berber drones
These inspired our half-hour improv jam on Green, Green Grass of Home

Absolute genius lyrics

Catchy tune from last year.

Pale Blue Eyes - TV Flicker

Just started listening to this, the album False Lankum by, obviously, Lankum. I had never listened to them before and I feel like a whole new world is opening.
Go Dig My Grave is astonishing.

Apparently written about a reviewer who called their gig repetitive and ā€˜laid backā€™.

Laid back,
Laid back,
Laid back weā€™ll give you play back.
Laid back,
Laid back,
Laid back Iā€™ll give you play back.
Over and over and over and over and over,
Like a monkey with a miniature cymbal,
The joy or repetition really is in you.
Under and under and under and under and under,
The spell of repetition really is on you
