Verttigo: Autumn Dreams

I don’t want the vocalists of Verttigo to take this as a sour criticism, but a huge part of me wants to see Blonde Redhead’s Kazu Makino appearing out of nowhere to sing on these songs. Three rough demos from the Canadian, shoegaze-enhanced troupe have enough promise to suggest that maybe, one day, we’ll see Makino collaborating with the group. Heady dreams pushed aside though, for the time being we’ve been gifted with a hugely promising selection of introductory efforts, our pick of the bunch being the song placed at the top of the post, ‘Autumn Dreams’, on the basis of its sheer immediacy.
