Mistletone proudly presents A. Savage (Parquet Courts), playing songs from his albums Several Songs About Fire, Thawing Dawn, and more. One of the singular indie-rock songwriters of our time, Parquet Courts frontman A.Savage returns to Australia from self-imposed exile in Paris to tour his new album Several Songs About Fire, out via Rough Trade / Remote Control. Produced by John Parish in Bristol, Several Songs About Fire features Savage’s close friends Cate Le Bon and her band mates, plus Jack Cooper (Modern Nature, Ultimate Painting). It’s a psychic odyssey, a singular irreverence stitched together by Savage’s outsize gifts as a lyricist and observer, a quality Parish calls “an emotional openness guarded by a laconic wit.” Worrying questions of wealth and poverty, self and other, Savage displays the poet’s gift of knowing when to narrate and when to vanish, leaving the listener to their own emotional privacy rather than instructing them how to feel.
After more than a decade in New York, Savage left the city and the United States, marking his exit with a masterpiece of maturity and a worthy corollary to his first solo venture, 2017’s Thawing Dawn. The intimacy of these tracks makes Several Songs about Fire a devotional study in tradition — and something all Savage’s own.
Several Songs About Fire stands as an act of nearly libidinal rebellion against a moment when so much of life is the blue light of screens. This is an album whose topic is no less than the sublime: the moments in which a sensory experience becomes a holiness or possession of its own, and the self floats above it.
📆 A. Savage (solo) will perform on TUE 19 NOVEMBER, with a performance at 7:00PM.
