Comment:

As easy as it is to draw a line between the bleak, jagged post-punk of Joy Division and such modern-day mood merchants as Interpol and the Faint, cult acts like the Chameleons (the spare, acoustic atmospheres of “Tears”) and Cranes (the piano-driven pop tendencies of “In the Night”) can be found lurking in the shadows of today’s songs as well. As a result, our Deep Cuts has a little bit of everything, including the ominous, widescreen storytelling skills of Nick Cave (“The Weeping Song”), This Mortal Coil’s otherworldly Tim Buckley cover (“Song to the Siren”), and the Damned’s pallid, prickly shades of punk rock (“In Dulce Decorum”).
