Why do we like this?
A slight warning: this tune is so tragically beautiful, it hurts.

Cloud Boat is a twosome out of the UK, and damn it, they have something to say. "Youthern" is a single off their upcoming release Book of Hours. With a beat that might make James Blake take a second look in the mirror, the track is both robust and deprecating. A slow diffusion of drums and vocals seem to slice listeners with microscopic razor blades as cerebral poetry tumbles mellifluously through the airwaves.

Now I will leave you with the lyrics, as nothing I am going to write here will be half as poignant:

they burned them and screamed

"come down with us, come down with us"¦"

i've never felt love, 'cause of the state of us

know me until i go

know me until i'm done

i've never felt love, i found them down there

these pictures of me as a boy

they burned them, and screamed

"come down with us, come down with us"

i've never felt love, 'cause of the state of us

come down with us, come down with us

know me untl i go

come down with us, come down with us
