Bark Psychosis Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight

Early Brit post-rock band Bark Psychosis never got to bless 120 Minutes with one of the stunning grooves from its 1994 album Hex, where enveloping dub bass wound through funereal jazz syncopations, coated in spine-tingly washes of reverbed guitar. (And with that I’ve used up my rock critic-y adjective count for the week. But you really do need to buy that album.) Still, while I assume this lo-fi-ish clip for the dreamy “Absent Friend” is fan-made, its slow, fuzzy, unobtrusive washes of street lamps at night fit the song perfectly well. And if the song’s a little too glacially paced for your taste, um, perhaps this vintage Hamburglar ad instead? [YouTube]
