|  | | | | Re: CHERRY GHOST Beneath This Burning Shoreline (2010 UK 13-track
CD album - Following the release of their critically acclaimed top 10
debut album, 'Thirst For Romance' and a two-year hiatus, the Ivor
Novello award winning songwriters Cherry Ghost have regrouped and
with the help of Dan Austin [Doves, Massive Attack], they have
recorded one of the most hopeful, beguiling, theatrical, and ultimately
captivating albums of the year. Running the gamut of human emotion,
the album moves quixotically from track to track, exploring new
narratives in each one, take 'The Night They Buried Sadie Clay', a
funeral march that celebrates the life of a dying woman that never
gave in or gave up hope, or 'Only A Mother', a tale of domestic abuse
and promises unrealised that's straight out of Morrissey book of poetic
social commentary. Meanwhile, recorded live and in one take, the
blasphemous ballad 'My God Betrays' sees Cherry Ghost collectively
bestow one of the most sorrowful & contemplative tracks in annals of
contemporary music. Includes the single, 'Kissing Strangers', with its
psychedelic lullabies, Glen Campbell guitars and stately drumming)
