Swaggering and heat stricken, Honey cruise slow on the edges of a forgotten town all day – shirts off, sloppy and reckless but with an understated purpose – a slurring vocal hook poised precariously somewhere between disapproving fuck-you nihilism and reluctantly crushed heartbreak carrying the wonderfully understated coda of “I see everybody’s got someone to love” in the frontseat of a carefully ascending drunk-driven rhythm. The upshot of all this is a sad, almost classically redemptive pop song that is refreshing in its patience and would-be epic scope yet of course still blessed with plenty of unholy tape-hiss, just as we like it.
