Carpet Releases Soft and Hidden
Clearly we’re all up in our feelings here this morning, working with the outliers and now this down-trodden track from Carpet. Listening through, there are some guitar tones that remind me of the first few Pedro the Lion LPs, and that matches up with the solemn voice you hear during the main verses. But, the selling point here is when the tones stretch to higher octaves, reaching for these lighter flourishes that rain emotion down upon the listener. That’s where the brilliance of this tune works too, letting you just hang out in your feels (as the kids say). When times get tough, we retreat to music, and the forthcoming Fruit EP seems to be a tune that’s going to fit into a lot of playlists on long walks alone.
