Mt Fog’s Eyes in Buildings
I owe a huge apology to the kind folks in Mt. Fog, as I was completely meant to cover their latest single last week, but alas, time and life caught up with me. The Seattle trio specialize in a brand of pop music that seems far removed from modern signposts and whatnots; it’s filled with whimsy and artistic expression, as if we’re journeying into some mystical world. This go round, that’s all owed to Carolyn B’s performance, as her operatic tones are all over the place, but controlled, mind you. At times, her range and pitch are reminiscent of Bjork, playful and yet skirting around the edges of pop magnificence. Put that together with the jazzy musical flex and you have yet another reason to grab Every Stone is Green; it drops on March 13th.
