Song Of The Day 11/01/2010: Sad Day for Puppets - Sorrow, Sorrow

Today's song comes from the new Sad Day for Puppets album, and is out on 7" as a single on Sonic Cathedral as well. The lyrics are seemingly a farewell to sorrow, but there's the same undercurrent of delicious melancholy in the chorus and the chiming guitars which characterises most Sad Day for Puppets songs. Really nice harmony vocals too.

I saw them the other day at The Social, and they were really good, although unfortunately Anna had a sore throat. They're much heavier than on record, which I think is probably a good thing. And for a shoegaze/indiepop sort of band, they really do love their pick slides and noisy transitions. But then, who doesn't? Try to see them live next time they come over.
