Thea Gilmore - Angels In The Abattoir Update (May 2010)

The new song this month from Thea Gilmore is Devils Song (note the lack of an apostrophe). Thea describes it as follows: 'I guess its a bit of a musing on the nature of being a songwriter and how, no matter how in control of your art you think you are, its actually art that wears the trousers!'

The song is mid-tempo, dark echoing vocals, guitar led with some great piano. Excellent lyrics, sung with control and subtle menace in equal measure. Just what we expect from Thea and another fine song. It looks like Angels will go into a second year which is great news and I for one will be resubscribing for another round.
