As misleading names go, His Clancyness is up there with the best. It conjures images of pomp; of arrogance and braggadocio. Or maybe of a teenage metal band.
Either way, there is no bombast here. Instead, His Clancyness makes beautiful, delicate music – widescreen yet claustrophobic.
His Clancyness is Canadian, but ‘Carve A Peach’ sounds definitively like America. It has the same combination of quiet despair and disconsolate beauty that one might associate with nomadic, romantic young men travelling across the Midwest; the sort of melancholy that Saddle Creek does so well.
‘Carve A Peach’ is taken from a split 7″ with Shimmering Stars, on Splendour, out Monday.
