Perfect sound of
summer?
Comet Gain.
There can be no argument
here. No other band manages to convey that ecstatic summer feeling as effortlessly
and with such beautiful desperation. The dizzying optimism, the self-forgetful
melancholia, the total fucking triumph of a great melody.
This, then, is my
perfect Comet Gain mixtape for the summer:
1. “The Fists In The
Pockets”
3. “Draw A Smile Upon
An Egg”
4. “Fingernailed For
You”
5. “Why I Try To Look So Bad”
6. “I Close My Eyes
To Think Of God”
7. “She Never
Understood”
8. “Movies”
9. “Clang Of The
Concrete Swans”
10. “The Weekend
Dreams”
11. “Some Of Us Don’t Want To Be Saved”
12. “Sad Love’ And
Other Short Stories”
13. “Wait Til’
December”
To be played on
repeat, obviously.
