Apparitions Of Melody - The Dead Letters Edition
First single “Fiction,” now the album’s leadoff hitter, is a revelatory study in balance. A serpentine, tense arpeggio that would make Jawbox blush is batted aside by a propulsive, palm-muted gallop until Pelsue tears into the hook, “We’re making fiction of our lives, burning pages as we write.” Literate, taut, and rumbling with apocalyptic subtext, “Fiction” more than sets the tone for what is to follow. Be prepared to study “the lines between the lines” as you pore through Apparitions’ songbook on this re-release.
