MP3: Dead Letters Spell Out Dead Words - I could have sworn I heard them SING
Anyone out there? Being as we are now in the dead zone between Christmas and New Year's, I figure I should probably hold off on new music for another week so here's another selection from one of my favorite albums of the year, Dead Letters Spell Out Dead Words' "Fall, fall, falling". Actually, this is perfect music for a day like today, especially here where it's a crisp blue day and the world is coated with ice. The earth is still and time moves slowly. It's a tranquil sort of beauty, but vaguely threatening too - there's sunshine, but it's too low in the sky to provide much warmth. Rather, it's still cold and bracing outdoors, a tease. It's the beauty of winter, of retreating into your home, into yourself. Of hibernation. Not in silence or resignation, but rest and rejuvenation. To emerge stronger on the other side.
