Daydreaming: "Survivalist Fantasy" - Kyle Morton (What Will Destroy You 2016)

Οι συστάσεις:  O Kyle Morton είναι  βασικό μέλος της ορχηστρικής (απαριθμεί συνολικά 11 μέλη) Indie Rock μπάντας Typhoon, στους οποίους παίζει κιθάρα, πιάνο ενώ έχει συμμετοχή και στα φωνητικά. Οι Typhoon έχουν να κυκλοφορήσουν νέα δουλειά από το White Lighter και το 2013, ο ιδιαίτερα παραγωγικός Kyle Morton όμως κυκλοφόρησε το 2016 τον πρώτο προσωπικό δίσκο του με τίτλο What Will Destroy You. Ο δίσκος είναι ιδιαίτερα αξιόλογος, σαφώς και δε ξεφεύγει πολύ από την επιρροή των Typhoon, με τον Morton ωστόσο να επικεντρώνεται κυρίως στο κιθαριστικό Indie folk και σε πιο απλές και γήινες μελωδίες. Ξεχώρισα αμέσως το ''Survivalist fantasy'' που είναι όσο απλό, ρυθμικό, ερωτικό και ταξιδιάρικο χρειάζεται για να σε συνεπάρει.


The Artist: Kyle Morton (Oregon, USA)
The Track: "Survivalist Fantasy"
The Album: What Will Destroy You (2016)
The Sound: Indie, Indie folk
And Says...



The traffic lights are out and all the phones are dead 
Don't answer the door for anyone 
Before we lost the power I think the television said
Stay inside your homes wait for help to come That must have been weeks ago
Now I've got this sinking feeling
You and I are the only ones



Now I'm the last man standing
You are woman's paragon
The garden's ours now we're competitionless
But suppose a third party's necessary
Just to get it on
That the rituals of love demand an audience
I went I found some mannequins
Set 'em up lining the bedroom
The safe words: eyes to God My love come and lie down with me The world was ripe
The world was crowded
And in its compound eye
We felt expansive
With the knowledge
We had our whole lives
Yeah we had options
Now our love
While not enough It's all there is The truth settled down like a euthanized pet
It's over there's no need to repopulate
Inscribed in our eyes was the grim epithet
Lovers without leverage, we sealed our fate
But there's a chance we can still be saved
I cooked up some medicine, darling Just drink until there's nothing left My love come and lie down with me Yeah, sure.
Uh, it starts like this
I'm standing at the top of the stairs and down at the bottom there's this door and someone's pounding on it as hard as they can... trying to get in So my instinct is to run away but the stairs they don't go anywhere, so I can only go down Uh, the door itself it's got this - it's got a window in it and through the window
I can see the outline of a face but the features are all indistinct and the light outside is this kind of sick, grey twilight As I'm going down the stairs
I have this thought that all of this
Has already happened
Then I reach the bottom and I open the door
