the luyas and the great song they made

The Luyas - Dumb Blood

This song beats along like a heart: slowly, dependably, murmuringly for two minutes straight, and then it gets broken, music comes flooding and streaming out like blood, but happily, a release, and the vocals and horn mix in the mess like multicolour, and though it would be a nice song with just the little homely vocals and guitar, it needs all the drums and mess and marching band to be a great song, which it is.
The Luyas are one of those bands, and there are some maybe-reasons why; they are bits of other great bands, Torngatters and Belle Orchestral, and the horn player heard here is the same that makes this song what it is. But none of that matters at all, the first time I heard this song I tried to fall asleep so it would come with me. It's just beautiful.
