Switch the letters

Lunt hadn’t released any new songs in almost ten years. This second album works as a reminder – most of our releases do owe a lot to his work as a producer. "Switch the letters" didn’t get as many reviews as Angil and Raymonde Howard’s records, but the happy few who did have a go at it were stunned and amazed. This album is bound to become a well-kept secret, an intimate masterpiece. Gilles Deles has not been touring, mostly to work on other personal and artistic projects, such as creating our new experimental division, The Tremens Archives.

Lunt plays music as a hobby. You can picture him wearing a toga, chanting his crazy folk songs at the sun, as in Beta Band’s most inspired moments. Or maybe seating on an ‘electric deckchair’, when the songs get a bit rougher, with Neil Young’s grumpy nonchalance taught to Silver Jews, Palace, and Mark Mulcahy (whom Deles sounds like when singing the marvellous ”Where’s the Revolution”).

Switch The Letters is as moving as a mature seism.
