Search - Cherry Ghost :: Beneath This Burning Shoreline

2010 sophomore album from the British Indie Rock outfit, the follow-up to their critically acclaimed Top 10 debut album, Thirst For Romance. Running the gamut of human emotion, the album moves quixotically from track to track, exploring new narratives in each one, take 'The Night They Buried Sadie Clay', a funeral march that celebrates the life of a dying woman that never gave in or gave up hope, or 'Only A Mother', a tale of domestic abuse and promises unrealized that's straight out of Morrissey book of poetic social commentary. Meanwhile, recorded live and in one take, the blasphemous ballad 'My God Betrays' sees Cherry Ghost collectively bestow one of the most sorrowful and contemplative tracks in annals of contemporary music. Features the single 'Kissing Strangers'. Heavenly.
