MUSIC: Villagers - [2010] Becoming A Jackal [CD/LP]
Villagers, a project headed and fronted by Irishman Conor O'Brien, culminated following the disintegration of his previous band The Immediate. O'Brien's sharp, definitive voice coupled with his uncommon playing style and eerie, heartfelt lyrics make their Debut album a hit, enough to earning them multiple awards and a nominations for the Mercury Prize. Hard to label as just alternative indie folk, as the terms tend to be generic. Dark and heavy lyrics throughout make this album beautifully depressing.
