The Bluetones’ leading light Mark Morriss, takes time off to wander towards a darker, cosmopolitan, Mediterranean instrumental and self-pitying lyrical concealing direction.
This single is part of the build up towards solo debut album, ‘Memory Muscle’ (out 02/06/08 on Fruitcake Music.) Morriss is keen to slow down and labour his vocals to achieve a more pedestrian lob, in order to show the difference between this and his main project.
That now infamous instrumental adventure is still there, but some lyrical mournfulness shows Morriss in a more sombre guise. This indicates that he has a genuine reason for going solo and those fearing that The Bluetones maybe running out of ideas need not worry, the lead man is simply exploring his soul.
