Baby Teeth, Wolfy Teeth - Mick Harvey
from the album Intoxicated Women (2017)
Mick Harvey is an incredible musician, best known for his association with Nick Cave over the past 40 years as a member of The Bad Seeds, Birthday Party, and Boys Next Door. More recently, he has been a major contributor to PJ Harvey records.
As a solo artist, he has been working on a series of four records that unfurl updated, english-language renditions of Serge Gainsbourg songs from he '60s and '70s. This month marks the release of Intoxicated Women, the final record in the series.
The preview single - Baby Teeth, Wolfy Teeth - is the perfect way to kick-off the new year. The symbolic "new year" imagery of a baby - coupled with the predatory image of the wolf - feels well suited for modern times.
It is also an appropriate kick-off by being an excellent tune. "Mysteriouso" Pop over a rockin' beat, with a campy vibe and just enough reverb to hook me.
Mick Harvey and Serge Gainsbourg are both artists I plan to listen to more often in 2017. How is that for a resolution?
