HILLS! WEREWOLVES! RUN! - S/T

Released July 2009
TOR03

In the spring of 2009, the debut album by Hills! Werewolves! Run! (Marc Gillen, Stephen Benson) was released. Stylistically, the record covers a lot of ground. Running through the records spine are four miniature electronic instrumentals, coming over like Suicide lost on a foggy night in the Cumbrian hills. "Ships On Fire" the album's second track, struts like the Holy Modal Rounders hi-jacking a Velvets rehearsal, whilst David Byrne looks on, jerking his left hip at an empty disco. "Burn" is a whiskey soaked alt. country lament which looks up to grey coloured skies with tired eyes. Then bursts forth "Dreamin' About Jeffery" a stuttering alt. folk stomp drunk on surreal dreams about St. Augustine and sea creatures. An uneasy calm permeates the end of the album as the lovelorn piano of "Cassie Don’t Dance" cascades gently into the spooky introspection of "Candy", where trains whistle to keep the ghosts awake as sounds blur onto the end. - Marc
