Not to be confused with a hillbilly courtin’ jam (do hillbillies court, or do they just load up on moonshine and hope for the best?), ‘The Brutal Here And Now’ is a jolly piece of experimental folk that just happens to have some seriously toe-tapping banjo as part of its make-up. A couple of gruesome lyrics are betrayed by the song’s sprightly rhythm, which soon builds into a ravishingly proggy climax. [link]www.thirteenthlock.net[/link]
