Better late than never...again.
I found this song through a remix on rcrdlbl. Also worth listening to, the Forest Swords Remix sends you to a foggy dreamland where everything is chanted slowly and the atmosphere is reminiscent of some sort of horrible winter wonderland. I was curious as to what the original version sounded like, and after looking it up on Youtube, found that is was drastically different. Less electronic, more indie. Still amazing, even better than the remix too.
Crooning I've got white chords running through my body to throbbing percussion, the hum of a chorus in the background and other mystical sounds, it gives a similar feeling of desolation that the remix provides, though it's not as "out there" with the inclusion of comprehensible lyrics (though who says lyrics makes a song better? Well, my sister seems to think so...but more on that later). "White Chords" paints a picture of a rainy London street, where you think that you have a white cat when it actuality it is black. It is strange. It is different that the indie you might be used to, but it is abstract art in song. It's beautiful, as I would call such a thing.
