Psychopaths like me
don’t shiver
Do you remember the winter we had? That three or four month stretch crept back into my mind when I heard Collin Herring’s “Psychopaths” for the first time. I remember how colorless it was, and how the amplified sound of crunching ice and snow was the soundtrack for when I walked my dogs. There was no time to shiver, only time to make it through.
Herring’s song — and album, Some Knives — knows atmosphere well. The tones are raw, the guitars move freely. “I gotta find you,” Herring sings. We believe him.
