Abject terror and extreme nonchalance compete for our attention on Debonair by Horsey. Life in general seems to take you down and modern life seems particularly negative on the buoyancy front. Horsey give us options on how to react accordingly. The best way to listen to Debonair is to close your eyes and imagine Sports Team, King Krule, Willie J Healey, Black Country New Road, The Lemon Twigs, Courting and the characters of Scooby Doo and Wacky Races all sprinting maniacally around the passenger decks, then sporadically standing stock still. Possibly hiding in a cupboard, a grandfather clock or a behind large pot plant.
Opening with Sippy Cup, it offers a psychedelic glam-punk starter that could be a theme tune to a demented 1970s TV game show. There’s a similar ‘theme music’ quality to Underground, where the central refrain could accompany a montage of children’s artwork that’s been sent into a kids’ TV programme. The refrain’s main three notes could similarly precede 1980s supermarket announcements. Yet Sippy Cup and Underground are both sobering in their own right, due to their themes of extreme youth and of death respectively.
