about
Southern California six-piece Dutch Interior write classic songs twisted up in melancholy and friction. The band, comprised of Jack Nugent, Conner Reeves, Shane Barton, Hayden Barton, Davis Stewart and Noah Kurtz, most of which have known each other since childhood, find joy in the turbulence of modern life, and the fragile strings holding us together. Their music side-by-side makes more sense than you’d think, conjoining aspects of ambient, slowcore, experimental folk, southern rock and more into their own both wholly personal and universally transcendent language.
Live, the songs become even more expansive and uninhibited, and the band’s knack for repurposing and reimagining speaks to their own forever oscillating creative vision where the music is constantly evolving from its original form. “Ecig (UK Version),” holds up this example: the other side of the coin from the band’s original recordings of introductory single “Ecig”, now abounding with it’s own elongated sharpness and sense of heightened focus. Lead vocalist Reeves’ incantation weaves a fuzzed-out spell of harrowing longing, spilling over into rhythmic intensity. It’s a crucial adaptation of a fan-favorite that has always existed within the lore of the band.
lyrics
Pull the knife from my back
and show me the color.
Is it red
or is it black?
Just hand it over.
The wound pulses like a rusted swing set,
and now the higher I get
off my electronic marijuana cigarette,
I feel regret.
So hold pressure where it lacks,
‘cause I could lose a lot of black blood;
the black blood that dresses the macerated edge
drips into buzzards that follow you my friend.
Oh my friend, I still see you in your bed
resting beside me with an elbow bent.
Arrested Development playing over
and over again. Oh my friend,
I still see you in your bed. And now I..
I hate because it hurt.

Sometimes when you just come across great ear candy, you just have to stop and listen. I bought the album without listening to it all, that's how much i was invested in this new found great band. Redhead
