It doesn't happen regularly, maybe every 2-3 years, I hear a band for the first time, and low and behold, they've been writing music for quite some time, then I'm miffed that their music hasn't been more widespread. Anyway, Donegal band Constant Supply pose serious questions with their latest single, 'The Misanthropic Phase'.
To dissect, it begins with a booming down-tempo drumbeat, the vox come in, are we in an unachievable melting pot of downtempo and baggy Manchester scene? Yes. This is actually happening. Orla Gircreest's looped vocal is a nailed on accompaniment to her saxophone playing in the final third. It's been a long time since I've come across a single, let alone a piece of music, that veers deliberately away from its core with such a shrug of the shoulders, the variety of movements between sounds here is beyond impressive.
