Line of Sight by Plains (2022)
Oct 15, 2022
If you're a fan of the last Waxahatchee album St. Cloud (and I am), you will not be disappointed by Katie Crutchfield's latest project. She has the extremely rare ability to make songs that are so familiar, they sound like something off of classic rock radio, recording in the 1970s, but no. It's new music from 2022.
Some more jams
I had never heard this GBV track before even though it's on a record that contains some of my faves from their catalogue. I just love this line 'Everywhere that you go, I'm with you now', and the general emotional, epic force of the chorus.
My good friend Lee played this for me in the car on the way home from band practice. Classic way to find new tunes. So simple and powerful. This is the type of stuff that makes me want to make music. It's an original, but to me, sounds like a punk band covering a classic lost Motown single.
