On Repeat All Day: Windmill’s “Tokyo Moon”
Cheers to Some Velvet Blog for reminding me of this gem from the UK’s Windmill aka Matthew Thomas Dillon, which was released last year on his debut album Puddle City Racing Lights. It has the same vocal fragility as early Mercury Rev, though slightly more frazzled, and bombastic drum sound sound as mid-era Flaming Lips, with lyrics that are a million times more cryptic. Perhaps the video will clear things up:
Nope, now I’m more confused and a little sad. It’s still a great song though.
Windmill’s album is available now from Insound.
