Don’t Feel Like Going Home
So Cow “Casablanca”
The guitar part at the start of “Casablanca” has a wonderful force and velocity, but it is most compelling in the way that it seems to push against a tide suggested by the drumming. It’s a great way to open an album — confidently moving through pressure, asserting itself without seeming violent or angry. Once the song moves beyond that point, it goes to a lovely, tuneful place before ending with a sound like gears grinding to a halt, shooting sparks and finally going up in flames.
