Avec Motherless et No reply, Meg Duffy fascine par sa maitrise minimaliste et sa violence contenue. Dans les deux chansons on trouve des mères et des portes, un questionnement lancinant et en filigrane une grande douleur.
Le prochain album de Hand Habits produit par Sasami Ashworth est prévu pour la fin de l’année.
Hand Habits – Motherless
Child without a mother
Ocean without a shore
Now don’t go askin’ me questions like that
You’ll only open the door for
You’ll only ask me too muchTwo hands on you
Two choices to make
With one decision, a knife you’d steal
And one that you choose to take
A secret taken to the graveChild without a mother
Ocean without a shore
Stop asking me why
You’ll only ask me too much
Hand Habits – No reply
He takes one step towards the door
The very one you’d hide behind, of that I’m sure
Would he be a liar if he said he’d never drive ?
I couldn’t bring myself to read the summary of « The Trial »
Crazy to me you can find that shit onlineVehicular homicide
Crossing the double lines
Taking the double linesWhen memory deceives you
Leaves you no reply (ah-ah-ah-ah)
Why, oh, why?Mother waits to be
Carrying a seed, lying fast asleep
Would she be a liar if she said she’d never move?
Wild are the things that fear can make a person do
Obviously, he lost his common senseUnder the influence
Unfortunate circumstance
Bleeding out from the headWhen memory deceives you
Leaves you no reply (ah-ah-ah-ah)
Why, oh, why ?Why, oh, why ?
Why, oh, why ?
Why, oh, why ?
Why, oh, why ?
