How weak is the pun in that title? Luckily Augie March have a new album out this month, which means that Glenn Richards will be working his lyrical magic once again. Title track Watch Me Disappear isn’t storming single material, but it gives me the sense that this is just one voice from an album that’s going to be full of voices. A novel in sonic form, if you will.
Good to have them back, and hoping that Watch Me Disappear is as strong as Moo, You Bloody Choir. While you’re waiting for your copy to arrive, listen to There is no such place (acoustic version) and marvel at how these horny-handed sons of the antipodean soil deliver such effervescent beauty, etc, etc.

That’s really nice - the Aug deserve a bigger international audience than they have. I didn’t like Moo, You Bloody Choir as much as Strange Bird, with the wonderfully deranged waltz, Song in the Key of Chance.
