Hannah Fury: A Latch to Open
If you’re wondering why Hannah Fury spends time separating the heart cards from the rest of the pack, you’ve not been paying attention. Whilst other artists, sometimes infuriatingly, feel the need to comment on political matters, or extend their oeuvre to prolong their career, Hannah quietly continues to ruminate on matters of Love. True, sometimes this extends into Passion or Lust – both of which are quickly banished to the naughty step, but if you can appreciate this focus you’ll come to realise that despite the gothic overtones, the results are as warm and as comforting as a winter duvet.
A Latch to Open, the closing track of Subterfuge, the essential precursor EP to the equally essential Through The Gash album, is a lullaby of sorts, or perhaps a weird nursery rhyme, which persuasively advises on various facets of Love depending on how you interpret the lyrics.
Before I go, I must tell the other songs on both of these collections that they too can wake me up at 1am and sing to me. It’s really okay for them to do so.
