Papercuts – “Life Among The Savages” (Stereogum Premiere)
Last month Papercuts graced us with “Still Knocking At The Door,” our first preview of their first album in three years. Now here’s our second Life Among The Savages selection, and it’s a gas. The album’s title track is just as much of a luscious swoon as the single that preceded it, with orchestral flourishes that make Jason Quever’s cooed “I choose war” all the more eerie, and it suggests that Papercuts is returning in top form. Hear the song below.
