Halloween is (mostly) over. There will be a few more post-holiday parties over the weekend, but for the most part, we’re going to wait a whole other year before it’s okay to dress like an idiot, act like an idiot, eat candy like an idiot and consume alcohol like an idiot. This can be a lot for some people to take in! If you’re a non-idiot who craves this sort of idiocy, it can be a shocker to wake up on November 1st and realize it’s no longer socially acceptable to wear a cape outdoors.
While I can’t help you with that, I can tell you that Polly Scattergood‘s latest album, Arrows, has a few rather good tracks with what one might call “haunting” vocals. (Listen to the way her voice quivers on “Miss You“, and you’ll know what I mean.) It might not be enough to cure your “This is NOT Halloween” blues, but it’s a start…
“Cocoon”, embedded above, is the song that sold me on Scattergood. Although, to be fair, it was Manhunt Daily contributor Lawrence who first introduced me to the British singer’s first single from this album, “Wanderlust“. And to be even fairer, I was casually familiar with the work of her self-titled album, but it never really grabbed me as much as her newer offerings.
To be the fairest, I am running late this morning and feeling a bit crazy! Sharon Needles touched my crotch last night while we were taking a photo together, and I think she put a curse on my penis? It’s the only logical explanation for me running late.
Also, um, goodbye! I have to go write about buttholes and cum sluts now, because things like Polly Scattergood don’t get us page views. Hope you all had a lovely Halloween last night and got your dicks sucked by, like, seventeen different dudes. At the same time! While sucking seventeen dicks yourself.
