Good Morning to You

People seem to like these and it’s been a few weeks since the last one, so here’s another mix tape. I might just be wired differently, but I’ve always preferred Emily Haines’ dour solo work to Metric’s glossy bombast. When given some room to breathe she has a knack for elucidating the tired and helpless sides of adulthood, even to the point of letting the mood become oppressive, which is a risk I sense fewer songwriters taking without the aid of over-produced atmospherics these days. Even though it’s fairly soft in the middle—Haines, Sade, ambient Eno, etc.—this one does lean further toward ‘classic’ (not Classic) rock.
