The Antlers - ”Kettering” (from Hospice)
Hospice was released way back in March (ancient history in the Indie rock world, I know) and is already buzzing around many “Best of 2009” lists, so I’m hardly being cutting edge by writing about it here. However, this melancholic, darkly beautiful album is much more fitting for the crisp fall than it was for summer, so I guess it makes a certain sort of sense that I’m just now coming around to it. The album is about a man having to witness the slow death of a loved one to cancer so it’s not exactly the stuff of sunshine and rainbows; however, a little darkness every now and then can be a lovely thing too, no?
