'Strange brew. Kill what's inside of you.'
New York based Singer - Songwriter Stewart Bronaugh taps into universal feelings of loneliness, anxiety romance and isolation on Lionlimb's new album Limbo.What more could you hope for in these troubled times.
It's a murky and mysterious record as you might expect. Angel Olsen comes and joins him on 'Dream Of You.' but there's penty else to recommend the project and its end product. Bronaugh has a disembodied and not what you'd describe as a strong voice. Given the murkiness of the sound here, a confused and troubled voice actually seems to be precisely what is called for most of the time .
Mixing up a whole set of influences. '70s Italian soundtracks, 60s Girl Group Ballads and Funk and Soul Classics.' {Portishead and David Lynch. The overall effect is not unlike ordering yourself a dish you don't fully understand when you're in an Asian restaurant and getting a bowl full of thick, forbidding soup.
Solids swimming in muddy liquid dumped in front of you some tume later. Best get your head down ,keep mum and tuck in if you know what's good for you. I find myself returning to this.I realised just now that Limbo is a highly appropriate description of what's going on here. It's suspended. Anyhow the results ar highly intriguing.
