 to access audio and video on collective you need real player.Songs for your head, heart and feet. Malcolm Middleton’s second solo album is so strong and articulate in its vision, that it thwacks back into place the idea of independent guitar music as honest and expressive. Although lyrics on Into The Woods absurdly mix images of steak McCoys and roaming bears with sustained melancholy, this is a joyously poetic and exuberant album. The pristine and varied production (rising cellos, muted disco thumps, euphoric Creation-era distortion) wraps dour observation in pop sensibility, leaving a record that should strike you joyously in the head, heart and feet. Malcolm Middleton - Into The Woods, released 20 June on Chemikal Underground.
