about

Elsewhere, the gently propulsive angular rock of Ice In The Water sounds akin to a great lost Mercury Rev cut and features de Grunwald’s electronically-altered voice airing his feelings about passing time and the damage done, but in a joyous, almost celebratory way: “Don’t it make you feel so cold/Don’t it make you feel so old.”

lyrics

Midnight in my dream
It was midnight going down to the bay
Nothing was coming through I had no words to say
I was listening nothing coming through
I was listening to Neil
I was listening to St Thomas
Because I know the way he feel
Don't it make you feel so cold
Don't it make you feel so old
It's Christmas
Only Christmas ain't Christmas to me
There's lights and shining stars
Colours on all the trees
But something happened don't know where or when
I think something happened to you
But I know something happened to them
Don't it make you feel so cold
Don't it make you feel so old
I was halfway to Blind River
Broke down on the road
Hitched a lift to the old junkyard
Waiting to be towed
We was going nowhere
Twenty four the place to be
First time I felt the cold
Ice surrounding me
Don't it make you feel so cold
Don't it make you feel so old

Unravelling is a giant step forwards, being less a collection of songs and more a cohesive album-length statement. ... more
