    trk’s song of the day - The Siren Tower - The Banishing Of William McGuiness

    I’ve linked this one as a YouTube video because I like the clip and reckon its worth the watch.

    The whole History Of Houses album is fantastic, though sadly not available on YouTube Music for some reason? I’ve uploaded my own copy I purchased from Bandcamp so I can listen to it on my account (one thing I do like about YTM!), but can’t share it obviously.

    It is available on Spotify for those who use that instead: https://open.spotify.com/album/3csWSm6mRjAT2eZyGPLXOZ

    “One More Drink Than Needed” is such a great finisher to the album. Just listen to the whole thing though, I love it.

    From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Siren_Tower :

    The Siren Tower are a rock, folk and country band from Perth, Australia, formed in 2008 by former Heavy Weight Champ singer-guitarist Grant McCulloch and former Antistatic drummer Brody Simpson. After establishing a sound and direction, the pair recruited Clay Smith on guitar and Gareth Hughes on bass; shortly after, Mark McEwen took over guitar duties, seeing Smith move to guitar and keyboard.

    In mid-2009, the band released its debut, a double A-side consisting of the tracks “Letter From The Edge of the Earth” and “The Bridgehouse”. They then began work on their debut album, A History of Houses. In March 2011, “Floods”, the first single from A History of Houses, was released and was later nominated for WAM Song of the Year.[1] In November 2011, The Banishing of William McGuiness, the second single from A History of Houses, was released and was later short-listed in its category in the Australian Songwriters Association’s Songwriting Contest; also the video for the song was selected for inclusion on the 2012 WAMi Festival DVD.[2] In December 2011, both Smith and Hughes left the band to pursue other musical projects. In March 2012, the third single from A History of Houses, All Things Will Change, was released. The album A History of Houses was released on 29 June 2012 through Firestarter Distribution to positive reviews in the Australian press.
