Mouth Breathers – A Sunny Day in Glasgow Mouth Breathers
Aaron has one of the most refined and discerning tastes in music of anyone I know. A tremendous musician himself, he knows his licks and knows when a song ticks. But his musical aptitude isn’t the only reason why I asked him to recommend a tune that have been doing it for him. It is because Aaron and I both enjoy being cynical. And when talking music during a dull lecture class full of Juicy Couture wearing co-eds, the potential for cynicism is endless.
So I asked Aaron for a tune, and he immediately dove into his backpack to produce his iPod. No hesitation. He offered “Close Chorus” by A Sunny Day In Glasgow, without any attached disclaimer. No modest “It’s pretty good,” or “You might not like it, but…” This was it. This was the jam.
I thought he was going to let me have a listen, but instead he queued it up for himself. Thus, I had to wait until later that night to hear the jarring chord progressions in “Close Chorus” that intrigued Aaron. Thanks buddy. Thanks for leaving me to listen to the discussion of approaches to analyzing cultural industries and whispers of scandalous Facebook photos.
