freedom, etc.
Here is me funneling their noise through my bodily systems and into my iPhone. On the widget below you can listen, download it, comment it, all that stuff. This is off the latest album All Creatures Will Make Merry.
The other great thing about blasting out Meursault tunes is that I can sing in my own accent without it sounding weird! Bonus (happy now Dad?). This one is dedicated to Brian and Emily who kept poking me to post more stuff.
Technical stuff: got it on the third take. It’s DADGAD tuning with capo on 3rd; check out the videos online to figure it out. The iPhone 4 seems to have put a few clicks in there that Garageband can’t get rid of (low-tech, hell yes). I’d think about adding some overdub to the ahhhs at the end but I’m keeping these recordings as unfucked-with as possible.

This is lovely man!
I’m a big fan of Meursault also, the new album is super great.
I can’t believe this is recorded through an iphone! Lacks a bit of bottom end, which is to be expected, but bloody good effort!

Hey the Scottish boy is back!!
Seriously though these are pretty good. Caroline agrees for what that’s worth, not that either of us are exactly talent scouts!! But hey we know what we like!
AND YES I AM BIASED RIGHT!

Mersault playing near Didcot next weekend at the Truck Festival. Did think about going until I discovered it would cost the 2 of us £98 to get in…
Ouch!

I love it. I want to put on my iphone so I can listen to it in my headphones.
More, please and thank you. Also, you with a microphone is a wonderful thing.
