Do cigarettes and wine go together?\u201d I ask.\n\u201cOh boy,<br> do they\u2026\u201d \n\u201cThanks,<br> I\u2019m just trying to have a better understanding of this song\u2019s context before I write my blurb about it.\u201d I say as I jot this all down in my notepad.\n\u201cFor that blog you write for?\u201d \n\u201cWe Are: The Guard?\u201d I ask.\n\u201cNo,<br> the other one,<br>\u201d she scoffs.\n\u201cOh shit they\u2019re not supposed to know about the other one,<br>\u201d I say under my breath,<br> not entirely sure why I\u2019m still typing it here right now and giving everything away like some super villain explaining his plan to steal all of the world\u2019s power crystals to grind down into fuel for his killer robot army.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s the song?\u201d she finally asks,<br> saving me from myself.\n\u201cOh,<br> um,<br> Low Cut High Tops - \u2018Cigarettes and Wine.\u2019 It\u2019s going to be released through We Are: The Guard\u2019s label on June 6th.\u201d I say,<br> confidently aware for the first time of what I\u2019m supposed to be blurbing.\n\u201cI can\u2019t wait to listen to it. Send me the link when it\u2019s out,<br>\u201d she says.\n\u201cYou\u2019re reading it right now,<br>\u201d I say.\n\u201cOh well\u2014 where\u2019s the link?\u201d \n\u201cRight here:\u201d\n\n<b>LOW CUT HIGH TOPS - CIGARETTES AND WINE<\/b>\n<iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"300\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" allow=\"autoplay\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/436554240&color=%23ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&show_teaser=true&visual=true\"><\/iframe>\n\n\nDavid Burns is a man of simple tastes. \n\nAfter all,<br> cigarettes,<br> wine,<br> and a fine partner in love and grime is all a man needs,<br> right? (Just ask Elon Musk,<br> amiright?)\n\nAdd some lo-fi jangly guitar,<br> the voice of a cracked-out angel and the subject fantasy of every male aged fifteen to thirty-five. Let\u2019s fall in love with women that are patently wrong for us,<br> just because we go together in the enablement destruction of our bodies,<br> only to have our hearts broken and end up writing hit songs about how the good times are better than the no times or better to have loved and smoked than not loved at all. If this isn\u2019t what life is all about,<br> then I don\u2019t know what is.\n\nAfter about 35 consecutive listens of this song I think it\u2019s permanently ingrained in my brain and if I don\u2019t stop listening soon I\u2019ll be headed off to the wine bar to try and pick up some questionable woman to chain-smoke through a pack of Marlboro Reds with. I don\u2019t even smoke,<br> but this song is subliminally convincing me that it\u2019s the best thing for me right now. \n\nWith each new single Low Cut High Tops cements his place as a quirky,<br> indie powerhouse and I can\u2019t wait to hear what\u2019s next,<br> except this is what\u2019s next. So now is what we get and I have to wait like a patient boy. \n\nFollow Low Cut High Tops:\nSpotify: https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/6jyzpBdGoCLuQdqf4A2uZC?si=xTbN2McYT2apWDtNW8_Y2g\nSoundCloud: https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/low-cut-high-tops\nFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Lowcuthightops\nInstagram:https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lowcuthightops\/\nTwitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/lowcuthightops\n\nBrought to you by We Are: The Guard: https:\/\/www.wearetheguard.com\/",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"music\",<br>\"indierock\",<br>\"indie\",<br>\"newmusic\",<br>\"premiere\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/d2mxuefqeaa7sj.cloudfront.net\/s_483BDD8C5C1241A2A33F22ABF3C6EDCDE1BFF55EDF19E3C092E14D252A4D97CD_1528330774898_low-cut-high-tops-cigarettes-and-wine.jpg\" ,<br>\"links\":[\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/6jyzpBdGoCLuQdqf4A2uZC?si=xTbN2McYT2apWDtNW8_Y2g\",<br>\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/low-cut-high-tops\",<br>\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Lowcuthightops\",<br>\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lowcuthightops\/\",<br>\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lowcuthightops\",<br>\"https:\/\/www.wearetheguard.com\/\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " |
