"The Streets Of Your Town" is perfect summer listening.

From the New Yorker: Critic's Notebook The Great Between by Sasha Frere-Jones May 29, 2006 On May 6, Grant McLennan, one of two songwriters in the Australian band the Go-Betweens, died of a heart attack at his home in Brisbane, at the age of forty-eight. Though they formed the band in 1978, in the punk era, McLennan and his writing partner, Robert Forster, created an aesthetic that had little to do with volume, speed, or noise. They wrote plainspoken, serious, and intentionally literate pop songs that rarely cracked wise or hollered out loud. McLennan’s gorgeous song “Cattle and Cane,” from 1983, was voted by the Australasian Performing Right Association as one of the greatest modern Australian songs. The song is neither loud nor soft. It maintains a tension that it decides never to release. A simple but oddly timed motif is played in unison by guitar, bass, and kick drum. McLennan pauses between words, flickering between melancholy and a sense of wonder that we can remember things to be melancholy about: “I recall a boy in bigger pants / Like everyone just waiting for a chance / His father’s watch, he left it in the showers / From time to time / The waste, memory wastes.” |
