THE LAST TOWN CHORUS - "Wire Waltz"



Ever fell in love with a voice?
This might be it! Megan Hickey is an angel, only angels can sing like this, she can sing the yellow pages and you'll still feel like drowning in an ocean of the sweetest honey...
I really liked her first album but this is a major improvement, whereas in the 2004's debut sometimes the mood was a bit "sleepy", here everything keeps your attention on a high from start to finish, with a David Bowie cover of "Modern Love" (honestly, words can't describe the beauty of it, you have to listen to it!) and precious gems like "It's Not Over" and "Huntsville,1989" where she remembers her adolescence with such vivid images and her lap steel building an hypnotic web of sound behind her (again) immaculate singing.
Memories never sounded so good.

8/10
