Lock & Quay

Already responsible for one of my favourite releases of 2009, Forest Swords could cease to exist tomorrow and I’d still count them as one of my favourite acts of the decade. As it stands, their latest release is due out on cassette tape through Leftist Nautical Antiques in August (pre-order), and they’re playing their debut show at our No Pain In Pop showcase on September 1st in London.

The video looks like it should really belong to someone like these guys, but the weird organic samples and chasmic guitars - a combination that somehow seems to sit strangely somewhere between two of my other picks of recent times, Burial and Arch M, plus a hundred other influences I’ll never place - pulls it off, as easy as light through burn’d shade.
