After three days of roadtripping and camping vintage Volkswagen style, I was searching for some Lo-Fi goodness for the post dub fest blues.
And where else would you start but the one and only Bill Callahan from his Smog days.
Melancholy, four track production at it's finest...
Thankfully I was introduced to Callahan/Smog with the Australian air play of 99' release "Knock Knock".
"Cold Blooded Old Times" climbed straight into my modern classic basket, with it's brutally honesty and possibly hard to digest lyrics - for some - but it's an absolute masterpiece in my opinion.
I've chosen something slightly softer to swallow this week - as were all guaranteed of the inevitable weather you like it or not.
Introducing...
"Dress Sexy At My Funeral"
