The Bilinda Butchers :: "The Lovers' Suicide"

Like a version of the early Two Door Cinema Club demos, the Bilinda Butchers chase a slice of pop, replete with ebullient guitars and gratuitous high-hat drumming. The result, "The Lovers' Suicide," certainly represents something a bit more dreamy, the vocals relentlessly buried in reverb and lo-fi, but nonetheless grounded in the foot-shuffling realities of the dance floor. Even the breaks, the attitudinal adjustments that slow the arrangement momentarily, hold the promise of the galloping guitars and booming tams to come.
