Continuing with my rather transparent Mark Kozelek fixation, the new w/trem track Lincoln Hill features jangly DADGAD guitars (I mean jeez, Mark, get a new tuning…), a jaunty shuffle in the rhythm department, and somewhat mournful lyrics about being all introspective, ect.

It does not sound anything like Scritti Politti, which is perhaps a pity as I have discovered that Scritti Politti sounds absolutely wonderful.

When I have finished reading Lacan’s ?crits, and written moreover a 100,000 word treatise on the role of consonants in the proper delivery of breathy high-tessitura vocals, then maybe I will be ready to make a tune that sounds a bit like Scritti Politti.
