Destroyer - Rubies (from
Destroyer's Rubies)
I've got plenty of time to write about this one before iTunes changes to the next track; about eight minutes, in fact. Probably won't use it all though.
I listened to this album for a while without really being able to make any sense of it, and then all of a sudden in the course of one listen it was like
every hook on the album (and there are a lot of them) finally penetrated my consciousness. So basically I just convulsed like a gangster being riddled with bullets from a tommy gun for fifty or so minutes.
That was a few weeks ago, but
Destroyer's Rubies has proven to have impressive staying power; I still want to listen to it pretty much every day and I have to force myself to try new stuff instead. It's a great, great album.
