And so to the other best album-opener of the year. Our Love… is a three minute blast of energy riding on the back of Paul Banwatt’s percussion, forever on the cusp of breaking free, always remaining perilously tethered. The video shows him in whirligig action for the band’s Audiotree session from October 2014.

As with Jackson, the force of this track acted as a bit of a block to the rest of the album; once this went onto one of my monthly playlists there was little going back to the rest of Mended With Gold, resulting in a lack of playtime for other highlights like On the Rocks and To Be Scared. Definitely an album worth revisiting, though, when time permits…
