Passers by stopped their cars, let their kids run to the fence to frown down to the shale coast below. Of all the photos of the whale that lay there that day, they would later say they could not convey the scale or the gunmetal grey. It took months to strip the flesh and a team of ten to dig the trench and bury what was left. Twenty years spent sound asleep as birthday parties restlessly outgrew their afternoons. The phone rang off in the workshop. The message left described a kind of skeleton for a skeleton, the curvature of the spine, reassembled in permanent ascent, aloof of definite expression on what her resurrection meant. Pride of place, the museum gates, a popular pedestrian commuter route. Dinner dates and business meetings all started late, saying “I couldn’t tear myself away”. In the summer, after hours, there’s a ladder and a coat of bone white paint, and the swells in the traffic, two blocks over, almost sound like waves.

Great to hear new music from these guys – their energetically powerful alt-rock sound has continued to evolve with even more exciting song structures, fantastic vocal harmonies and robust guitars. Sharp and sweet! Michael Reilly
