New Tune from High Pines

When you name drop Felt, Serge Gainsbourg and the Fall in your influences, you better believe I’m going to have my eyes on your work…so here I am with this new tune from High Pines. In a way, it reminds me a lot of the Black Watch, utilizing this darkly tinged guitar lines that have just the faintest hint of a sparkle, like a glint off metal in the moonlight. Plus, I’m a sucker for sweeping string arrangements, which add a beautiful texture to this tune. And, in the vocals, you get this heaviness, almost like a pained beauty, if you will. Super digging this today; it appears on Between, a new LP dropping August 20th.
