The layered instrumentation that has increasingly characterized Eric Bachmann's Crooked Fingers continues with the new single "Phony Revolutions" from the impending Forfeit/Fortune. Equaling the tempo and fervor of Red Devil Dawn's "You Through a Spark" or "Andalucia" on Dignity and Shame, the song opens with a resounding floor tom, resonating piano and generally serpentine horns. Add shakers, plucked guitars and a female spoken vocal track, and it's all pretty dense.
Given the conceptual precedent set by the biographical Dignity and Shame, the lyrics are appropriately narrative in purpose if a bit vague at this point. The subtle polish of Crooked Fingers' past albums moving at the pace of Bachmann's previous work in Archers of Loaf.
