Cousins - “Jules”
A few weeks ago Cousins quietly dropped their latest album The Palm at the End of the Mind. My love for this band is well deserved. These Canadians write lo-fi, grungey pop songs with hooks that set deep. You’ll find yourself humming along to the melodies halfway through each song. The crooning vocals have this strained restraint that holds the tension even when everyone else is running at full-tilt. The bellows and whispers are so damn charming and perfectly placed, you’ll want to join in and add your voice.
I find this band to be… quietly anthemic. Tight, melodic, heavy on the rhythm and plentiful sing-along opportunities, but muted. Hushed. And that’s the part that surprises you. That’s the part that works it’s way under your skin.
Go to bandcamp. Listen to the whole the album. Become a fan because Cousins deserves oh so many more of us.
