Genuflex. Not a name that I’ve heard many people say, but an album with all the calibre of a classic that just missed its moment. An #unspunhero, in fact.
It’s dark, malevolent in its music and yet light and beatific - perhaps even divine could be used to match the band’s name.
Go and have a read. You’ll be rewarded with a beautiful Bowie cover, a remix by Pop Group’s Mark Stewart, and a link to the album on a certain streaming service.
Convinced this is a gem of an album that’s been overlooked. That’s why it’s this week’s #unspunheroes blog post: https://unspunheroes.com/2023/07/02/colonel-abrams-colonel-abrams/
Perhaps an #unspunhero right now, not sure it’ll stay that way. Very much enjoying Robin Kester’s Honeycomb Shades.
11 track album
Here at Unspun HQ we’re #nowplaying this gem of an #unspunhero, Emmett Finley. Part rock, part folk, part classical, country and gospel, it really defies genre labels. It is absolutely stunning, right through to the last track (a fave here at Unspun HQ).
