Medicine Boy - Take Me with You When You Disappear (2020) EN

Medicine Boy are a band that made a huge impression on me during Spacefest 2018 in Gdańsk and their album Lower is one of my highest ranked releases ever. This spring they suddenly announced that the band is going to be dissolved but fortunately, this fact is being sweetened by a new album called Take Me with You When You Disappear .

SO we're back to the realm ruled by the velvet vocals of Lucy Kruger and Andre Leo and their slow, dark music. Just as we remember from the previous albums, we can call it a mixture od dark folk, slowcore and blues rock with The Kills vibes. When necessary, Kruger can show her claws (Berlin Sky!) but usually balances on the verge of oneiric atmosphere and gloomy melancholy (which is especially beautiful in Rag Doll).

Sometimes the claws are also shown by the guitars and then there's clear climate of the US' south audible. The band says their good byes with en especially angry and ear-whipping song Vapour Voice and the peaceful sadness in Venom Song. And in general with an album that is, quite fittingly, mostly focused on the melancholic vibes.

Take Me with You When You Disappear costs 8 EUR.
