Meursault | Flittin’

It’s about time I remind myself that All Creatures Will Make Merry hit my top 10 albums of last year, though it went criminally underrepresented among the blogging crowd - oh well. There’s a few albums every year that persist on despite their relative obscurity, even with those who oughtta be in the know.

Fellow blogger Slowcoustic, however, has the idea. In a recent post he highlighted two live, intimate video recordings of Meursault’s upcoming album that instill a deep, deep confidence in the band’s next outing. Flittin’ shows that the lo-fi, acoustic Scottish song-poets have stayed in familiar territory with their new outing - namely the heart-wrenching, deeply moving tracks they’ve been known for. Check it out above, along with another video for Settling over at Slowcoustic.
