Black International - Dead Languages

from Kowalskiy's Free Monthly Scottish EP #14 by Kowalskiy

/

about

"This is one of the first songs Black International ever rehearsed. The lyrics had popped into my head fully formed one night when I was in that weird dream zone between being awake and asleep, and luckily I kept a notepad beside my bed in case of any nocturnal revelations. It's intentionally 'dumb' musically, and the words are a tongue in cheek vignette about a couple forging a relationship in the midst of cultural decline, or something like that. We recorded this demo in 2008, and it was dropped from the set not long after, never to return. I still quite like the economy of it, the whole thing's done and dusted in under 2 minutes, almost child-like in its simplicity. A little piece of bubblegum pop." - Stewart Allan (Black International)

about

Kowalskiy Glasgow

Kowalskiy was called a lot of things, including an "esteemed" and "cult" Scottish music blogger "virtuoso". I might have announced my sudden retirement from blogging in early 2013, but I leave you with 30 free EPs featuring more than 150 brilliant Scottish bands to remember me by.

Thanks to everyone who contributed, and everyone who downloaded one of these EPs.

All the best folks,

David x
