Description
Lullaby for the Debris is the second album from Moses Brown of Institutes solo project Peace de Rsistance. Those of us who loved Peace de Rsistances 2022 debut, Bits and Pieces, will be pleased to hear that much of what made that album so memorablethe glam-infused art rock sound, the gritty yet richly textured production, and Mosess bluntly class-conscious lyricscarries over into Lullaby for the Debris. Yet Lullaby for the Debris also sounds more refined, more timeless than its predecessor, with 40 Times the Rent, Coddle the Rich, and Aint What It Used to Be, all built around chooglin Lou Reed-style riffs beamed in from the great rock and roll beyond. Elsewhere on the record, Mosess arty side shines through, with The Funny Man and Pay Us More full of uncanny sounds that invite the listener to bathe in their rich sonic textures. I Am and You Are Absurd move into a new territory Brown calls despondent funk, their rubbery bass sounds and eerily progressive soundscapes evoking Station to Station-era Bowie, while the title track closes the album on a pensive note, landing somewhere between 70s minimalist composition and the mellower moments from Enos solo albums. The real strength of this record, though, is Browns ever-developing songwriting skills, which meld wry social observation and Crass-style confrontational politics to melodies youll sing along with for the rest of your life.
