The Crookes ft. Misty Miller - Ex-Lovers YTV

06/10/15 YouTube Video

Isn't it beautiful when a couple of great artists come together and make something beautiful. This has been proven with The Crookes and Misty Miller collaborating on Ex-Lovers. It is a bit of an acoustic number with just two voices and a guitar. The Crookes' George Waite and Millers boy/girl vocals seem slightly played down for the first half of the track but they really build up to something really powerful and emotional in the final verses. I truly feel that they are mourning their split. Enjoy!

Ex Hex - Rips OA

October Album

My album from October is Ex Hex with their debut Rips. October has been a slow and steady month for me in terms of good albums that have been released. They have been put out here and there all through the month with a slight surge of great ones right at the end. Other great albums from this month include: Johnny Marr, The Bots, Bass Drum Of Death and Ultimate Painting and more.

I have been a fan of Mary Timony from her time with Wild Flag and that band is the reason I found out about and got into Ex Hex. Rips is a more old school rock sounding record and seems to speed through in terms of length. I think I prefer it to the Wild Flag stuff because it all seems a bit more dirty, scuzzy and straight forward with no pretending which is all things I admire. I hope you like this track and more.
