Well, that’s a song that you could call slinky. Touché seems to crawl and slide towards the listener rather than be delivered by a band in the more traditional sense. Meandering music that blends a slightly gothic sound with that of alternative theatre and also the more experimental reaches of alt-rock with no small amount of bluesy seduction.
It’s not that there is a lot going on; it’s a spacious and understated song, it is more that what is going on is too slippery to categorise and too seductive to capture. And that, dear reader, is always a good sign.
