Kanye West might think his music is dark, but if dark is what you want then Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds’ album Murder Ballads is properly dark. The stories of Stagger Lee and O’Malley’s Bar will well and truly test your ability to embrace darkness!
As an antidote to tales of death and murder some electronic, poppy dance tunes were in order – Delphic’s January 2010 album Acolyte got an airing. Notable to me for 1) having been support at a Little Boots gig I saw in Leeds and 2) providing the theme to Sky Sports cricket coverage of England over the summer with the first track Clarion Call.
